Match thread

Chris B.

El Capitan Jeronimo de la Fuente?

Bloody hell, he sounds like someone who should be in one of @Mokey 's books!

Higgins

What atrocious touch judging/referreeing. Those Jaguares backs were back barely five metres from the mark and advanced forward right away from that tap penalty. Hang your head in shame you match officials.

No Quarter

Creevy cheated his ass off in that maul.

Higgins

How can a knock on possibly be ruled there when the ball was completely obscured from sight?

Higgins

@No-Quarter said in Hurricanes vs Jaguares:

Creevy cheated his ass off in that maul.

As he has done throughout the entire match. Perhaps he is slightly colourblind and the jerseys look similar in colour to him?

No Quarter

Ardie is going well at 8. He's really come of age as a player, will be an asset to any team at 7 or 8 the way he's playing. AB coaches will be very pleased given our lack of depth in the loosies recently.

Higgins

Hurricanes currently paying $2.45 (Jags @ $1.56). Time to get your money on?

Gunner

Terrible reffing there. The tackler has to get up and come through the gate these days do they not?

antipodean

Ref lets tackler win turnover from offside position.

Stargazer

Remember, this is the same ref that stuffed up in the Crusaders v Sharks game. I don't understand how he managed to get on the SR refereeing panel. He's always been shit; also when officiating M10 Cup.

Donsteppa

“Hot potato hot potato...”

Stargazer

Great try from Laumape!

Higgins

And now a new intrepretation of a knock on?

Higgins

Oh, he has changed his mind and now ruled a clear knock on as a knock on, albeit very belatedly.

Stargazer

Another Canes' line-out that goes wrong.

Higgins

Oh no, yet another lost lineout, thats four for the night in the fifty eight minutes gone so far.

@Stargazer

No doubt, it’s a huge work on for Aumua.

Stargazer

What was Boffelli thinking???

Higgins

A beautifuly impersonation of Alan Hewson there!!!!!

MrDenmore

Aumua was selected as an All Black hooker?? What, was he coached by Anton??

taniwharugby

how the fuck was he considered on his feet!!

gt12

Pickerill is the anti hometown.

Stargazer

Jordie can't kick tonight.

MrDenmore

@gt12 Is he the same ref who managed the Sharks-Crusaders game? Sack him

Higgins

And now Kirifi also does a Alan Hewson. Are these really full time professionals out there in the yellow jerseys?

gt12

Jesus Christ, Jordie.

Stargazer

@Higgins Subbed off straight away.

Stargazer

Bloody hell. Another Jags' try.

Gunner

Canes are going to be extremely lucky to come second tonight.

Stargazer

Can't say the Jaguares don't deserve it. They're the better team tonight.

Rancid Schnitzel

Bad miss by Laumape.

Stargazer

And now Smith can't find touch. When things go wrong, they go badly wrong.

Higgins

There was something a little doubtful about that try that possibly gave me the impression that it moght have been a double movement. No replay shown of it so can't investigate my initial impressions.

MrDenmore

Canes playing like the Petone Boys High First XV after a big night out.

Gunner

Can’t believe I’m saying this but bugger the Canes, I’m off to watch the Worriers

Stargazer

Come on Canes; if you can't win, at least go for the bonus point!

Higgins

And even the replacement hooker adheres to the Creevy offside line interpration as he enters that maul to win the turnover from a cleay offside position.

Toddy

Canes have been absolute poke tonight. Jags too good.
