Nicely taken try to Gamble

@Bones said in Hurricanes v Moana Pasifika:

Don't think you can compare last week's MP side to this week's. Or are the waratahs that bad?

Jorgensen decides to play shit when I have him as a triple captain.

Max is World Class. What a try.

Haha Jorgensen's footwork froze the defender

Max in again but going upstairs. No try.

Looked fine.

@Tim said in Waratahs v Drua:

Looked fine.

Definitely seen worse given.

I love watching Jorgensen.

@Canes4life he must be well into the hundies....

Don’t know why I picked Joseph in my team. Barely done a thing in this game.

141 atm. Needs to get involved more, hangs on his wing a fair bit but is so deadly when he gets the ball.

This Tah’s team would be so much scarier on attack if they didn’t have Gordon pissing around at the base. In fact their 10 is a bit av as well.

This game is buggering up my tipping. Bloody waratahs

The Tah’s 10 has dropped the ball about 6 times in this game. He’s hopeless.

Can't believe Ioane Moananu wasn't wanted by any Kiwi team

Number 10 knocks it on again. This guy isn’t serious is he? The coach is going beserk.

Maoananu is a beast. Why didn’t the Saders keep him?

It's absolutely ridiculous.

He's been around for years meanwhile Canes have Raymond T who is rubbish and Blues have Mullen who is all sorts of average

These teams are idiotic

I’d take him over George Bell even. That power is hard to come by.

Ryan encouraged the Blues to sign Mullan

Aussie teams with the exception of the Brumbies look really unfit

You know who does look fit, Jorgensen does. Chalk another try down to Max.

The wrong Crusaders hooker. Nice one Jase.

It's like 90% humidity in Sydney today.

Early days but Tahs shaping as proper contenders

Best Tahs pack in a decade

@Grooter Would have happily seen the Canes move on Tuputupu for Moanunu.

Waratahs might have to get forwards punching on in trainings from now as a requirement with how their season has started.

He's too short! Right?

Jorgensen approaching Ben Smith levels of skill.

All NZ sides had interest. Unfortunately, they had all jumped the gun and every side had their hooker spots filled. Sides could only offer wider contracts to him, hence the decision to go across the ditch when that offer came in.
