Dumb, but fuck all force, penalty only

Canes4life

That’s dumb and to do it on Dearns, even dumber.

So brainless the ruck was well and truly lost

Bones

It'll be upgraded to red, if it was a crusader he'd be promoted to prime minister

Tim

Shoulder to head. Just needless, dirty play. Should be a red.

ffs that is the sort of dumb, needless bullshit that makes the AB coaches go ... no thanks....

just so unnecessary

Tim

The late, free-hit "clean-out" from a defender at the ruck is something that needs to be eliminated.

Bones

Love for fullback please

frugby

SuperCoach ain’t the one. It is so predictable. I’m done.

jimmyb

That was slick and way too easy

Canes4life

Superb rugby by the Canes. Patience personified.

One of these teams is a Super rugby team.....the other was in 2015

jimmyb

Great impact by Cribb so far, for the Hurricanes that is

Yeetyaah

Wowee the Canes are looking smooth

jimmyb

Shit by TT and Tangitau in defence there

Canes4life

Take a bow Love. What a performance.

Tim

Impressive support play tonight from Hurricanes.

Glad to see Love back playing at 10.

This always had the potential to be our hiding game.

Just didappointing it happened in front of a home crowd which will impact future gates

Canes fans shouldn't under estimate how crap our landers are..... this is probably the most insipid performance in a couple of years..

Tim

@jimmyb Coming into the match their squad looked seriously depleted, especially at lock, so this result wasn't unexpected.

@jimmyb The blame lies squarely at the feet of the head coach. Buck stops there. He’s been in the job a year and a half now and we have gone NOWHERE.

People pouring out the ground early. Borderline toxic. I don’t enjoy watching this team.

I’m afraid he is stubborn and has his favourites and that is why he isnt the All Blacks coach

Yeetyaah

Renton ya piston wristed gibbon

This would have happened with Holland and Lavanini at lock. You’re kidding yourself if you think the result would be different. The issue is systemic

frugby

You can’t use the excuse of having no locks if your spend the whole season refusing to use them in the first place.

Thank you thank you thank you. The are so incredibly poorly coached. Jospeh is shit as I’ve said all season

that looked pretty innocuous to me......

Yeetyaah

Wonder if Renton cops a ban for that

JJ doesn't have the best cattle .. but I expect better of the team

Higgins

Dislocated shoulder is it?

Canes4life

Respect to Angus for getting up

Well when you have what ever cattle it is for two and a bit years, you expect them to get better, not worse

Joseph isn’t shit - but going backwards doesn’t work.

Angus you fluffy bunny ..glad you are ok . but far too long mucking around

jimmyb

@frugby we’ll disagree on that but the team is incredibly poorly coached. Can we agree on that?
