Reds have been poor
The Canes have made them look it though. Just so dominant atm. Watching them live, the hits they are putting on are massive.
I agree, the defence has been huge. Reds D was big at the start but they haven't been able to stay with us
@Dan54 said in Hurricanes vs Reds:
Geez that was pretty good, as a Canes' man
If we cut down our handling mistakes it could have been 60!
@Dan54 said in Hurricanes vs Reds:
I know basics huh? Bastards!!!
Swap out Harkin for Sullivan and our errors will decrease by nearly 100%
How about Fehi though? He’d actually be a lock for the ABs right now if he wasn’t going overseas. That guys work rate is very impressive.
I will add, I think one or two should admit that Laidlaw wasn't too far off with Enari ahead of Viljoen.
Mabey is fucking awfully substandard. Making shit up left, right and centre then just missing blatant stuff. Drop him.
Oh and Cam's option taking and execution is also substandard at the moment. Canes points mostly came when he wasn't required.

Viljoen was poor in his one outing. Set up a try for the opposition

I don’t mind if he leaves his best to the second half of the season.

Can't get too excited about anything until we play the big boys. If our forwards show the same affinity for contact against the likes of the Blues, Crusaders and Chiefs then I'm gonna start to believe.
Well, we will find out in a fortnight.

Also, I know he's getting on a bit, but Moorby > JRK.
I’ll raise you a Harkin > Moorby > JRK

Harkin had faded big time before this week and I seem to recall a similar fade last year, so will be interesting to see how he comes back after a break.

I’ve actually thought that about Moorby, he hasn’t been as lethal compared to the start of the season. Hopefully both of them come back firing again after the bye.
Seeing Harkin up close at the game today doing his fitness session, he’s a lot bigger than I thought.

How did Ruben Love go?
Team bus.
Thanks you unhelpful fluffybunny.

Watch the games fluffybunny!
Highlights only. Too early in the season.
Plus I am Super Rugby homeless.
Don't support any team in particular.
Of mild concern is why the fuck did Fehi sign overseas after one season of SR? Looking even quicker this year too. Hopefully planning to come back, could end up a very good 12 too.
@Frank said in Hurricanes vs Reds:

Fairly unflashy but accomplished game, some promising stuff off the boot, steady hand running the cutter.

When I have watched him at 10 he seems reasonably composed.
Certainly seems to have the pace and defensive ability.
Just cant get a read on how well he is really suited at 10 when there is less space against better sides.
Wondering if he'll start to flake like DMac sometimes does.

Scary thing is he said he was playing with a leg injury last year so was unable to let loose properly, even though he still ripped up. He was obviously not talking shit as he’s really showing his potential this year.
I’m sure he’ll be back, way too good and too young so I’m hoping the ABs are in his ear about it.
Good shout about the midfield, can see that happening in the long run.
@cgrant said in Hurricanes vs Reds:
How long is his contract? I'd wish it's only one year.
Only 2 years, but probably right in his prime as a wing and missing an opportunity for a WC. I imagine it's great money at Newcastle though.
@Bones said in Hurricanes vs Reds:

Coin. Lots of coin.
@cgrant said in Hurricanes vs Reds:
Great money but shit place where to live.
I can definitely think of worse places. Especially worse places with not nearly as good access to Europe, Scotland, Manchester, London.
