I reckon Ardie needs the rest, not Beaudy! Still should have the firepower it we stay away from scrums and resultant yellows. Be interesting to see how Marshall goes from the start in ten

@Machpants After last week's heroic performance against the Blues I was surprised to even see Ardie named in that 23.

Don't really see why Beauden needs a rest, he had one a few weeks ago when he missed the trip to Japan. I've got a feeling the big wigs have told the Hurricanes to keep him as fresh as they can.

@Canes4life I agree. Ardie has done a lot of 80 mins games in a row, that's harder than just 'games' but I would imagine that sort of stuff is taken into account.

Canes4life

@Machpants I kind of hope they don't take him to S Africa.

@Stargazer looking through that side and the likes of Creevy, Lavanini, Matera, Cubelli, Mayano & Boffelli give them plenty of experience to give the Canes a good crack. Should be an entertaining game if it's dry.

What a try. Jordie brilliant and then what a kick from Laumape. Awesome.

That was a live up to the hype play from Jordie and good input from Ngani and Vaea.

Why isn’t that a Canes scrum?

Higgins

Mr. Pickerill setting a very tight indication of the offside line there judging by that Ausutine Creevy pick up at the back for the Hurricanes ruck.

Gunner

Wowee, contender for try of the year right there.

How about this horrible freaking jersey clash though?

Edit, sorry forgot I’m about 10 minutes behind after that insane start.

Toddy

Brain explosion.

There we go Jordie sublime to ridiculous, that should be try and yellow

I don't have an issue with them, one is yellow and one is orange.

How do you not know that ruling of the law. Fuck he’s thick sometimes.

Donsteppa

Dumb as a sack of hammers there from Jordie.

Watching too much NRL 🙂

Apparently Rieko told him to do it. :winking_face:

I don't have an issue with them, one is yellow and one is orange.

And even better the team in the orange jersey is not representing me this time!!!!!!

A bit of a coaching failure. You'd think spending a day in the off-season talking through the rules would be well rewarded.

For a fullback to make that play suggests he doesn't know the rule.

@Chris-B he knew the rule, that's why he dropped his head as soon as he did it

Toddy

Good passage of play from the Canes with Bag of hammers in the bin. Excellent slowing down of the game and wasting all the time they can.

Gunner

I know it’s the rules...but...
I don’t get why you can knock it back in the general field of play but as soon as you are in goal it’s suddenly illegal?

Stockcar86

Marshall looks like meth-head Ben Stiller

Higgins

How many lineouts have been lost when Aumua has been throwing in tonight. I can recollect at least two (maybe there have been others too?) and we have only been playing for twenty two minutes.

Because you're killing the ball I'd guess, in general play it's still live.

Toddy

Good try. Shit maul defence from the Canes.

He didn’t just knock it back. You can’t knock the ball out any where on the field

Yeah why do they stay bound when obviously going around the side of the mail? Get straight of and neck in front of the opposition, pisses me off no end, trying to spoil rather than compete

Take the 3, I repeat

Siam

I love Ardies monster dummy. Made me chuckle out loud.

Enjoying coming around to Ardie, he's become very trustworthy in performance. I went through the same appreciation journey with Ma'a many years ago

gt12

Is Jordie the most overrated player since...?

Another fucking brain fart.

Gunner

Canes playing like a bunch of cnuts

Stargazer

@gt12 Or Aumua? That Jaguares' try is due to another terrible line-out throw.

Donsteppa

Presidents grade forwards defend their line more aggressively than that. Very passive.
