R3 - Brumbies v Hurricanes - 1 March 5:35PM AEDT - Palmy North

Yikes, read previous comment and add 7 more points. 14 - 0, Hurricanes leading.

 

[Dctarget]

Will be very tough for Brumbies to come back from this now.

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Not the start was looking for...14-0 down already....

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Well if they can score 50 points like last week then being 14-0 down is not a problem

Things I'm a fan of:

• Making your tackles;
• Exiting your own half;
• Breakdown security.

Not seeing any of those so far.

Bloody hell Pete has been immense in the opening quarter.

 

[southsider]

Hurricanes thrown about 5 forward passes, glad the ref finally called one

 

[Derpus]

Brumbies look limp and uninterested. I guess one good performance is enough.

Didn't you know there's an exemption for kiwis?

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Brumbies flat and lacking energy - at this point I can’t see brumbies any chance. Regroup and revisit the mental side as latter not been there tonight against good hurricanes side

 

[Dctarget]

That cleanout by Savea leading up for that try was a blatant in from the side.

 

[Happy]

The forward passes continue to be ignored

 

[Brumby Jack]

Hurricanes way too good in this match, especially with their offloads but FFS officials pick up a forward pass every now and then

 

[Purce]

I shudder whenever I see this argie ref. Every game I've seen him ref he has been very incompetent. Canes are playing better, very different brumbies from last week. This bloke in the middle isn't helping though

 

[Bobby Sands]

Incredibly frustrating game to watch - I realise the Hurricanes are red hot - but this must be infuriating for Brumbies people.

So many turnovers from backs!

Very side to side.

I realize its hard to manufacture front foot play, but I had to turn it off.

Can't stand Kiwis when it involves rugby.

 

[southsider]

Then they go back and card Pocock for that piss weak excuse of a penalty

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Aussie self doubt against kiwi sides setting in

 

[Dismal Pillock]

Can't stand Kiwis when it involves rugby.

One of those games where nothing goes right. Lucas has been poor since he came on. Wright looks good, though.

 

[southsider]

Kuridrani needs to know when to pass and when to hold, doesn’t pass it enough and when he does it’s either too early or too late, needs to improve if he is going to keep off Jordan P from the reds

McCaffrey has been awesome the first few rounds, hopefully he stays consistent and will be in the talks for a wallaby position

Brumbies need to either make less mistakes or scramble better, most of the hurricanes try’s came off brumbies mistakes

Need to drop Simone, been underwhelming the first few weeks, doesn’t have many positives and has a few absolute brain farts per game
