Not sold on Roigalrd at all.

I was told last week he's the reason Love is looking composed. I'm far from sold on this performance.

No you weren't, maybe you were too busy saying he could do no wrong while he was being outplayed to listen properly? You were told that he was going bloody well and that Roigard takes a fair portion of game management and kicking load off Love, and that having the AB halfback is helpful if you're a young 10, likewise the AB 12. Somehow you took that as an insult.

Roigard's been shit tonight though.

Hope he's not regressing

He is. Was simply outstanding last week. Apparently.

Feels like a long time since we've seen a NZ winger in Fineanganofo's form.

Big, strong, fast and good on the feet.

Do we pick him this year for the ABs and deal with next year, next year?

I am starting to think he is the player I am waiting for Clarke to be.

I think Clarke was our best winger last year. Fineanganofo is just better, in all facets.

Clarke is better under the high ball and is tested at test level

Fineanganofo did pretty good for the 7s team and is great under the high ball.

I'm a huge Fehi fan.

But to say that he's better than Clarke in all facets is not accurate

I'm so insulted.

It's like watching share prices every minute of the day. There will always be ups and downs, by the overall trend is positive

Canes producing a bunch of sad points AB wise this season. Fehi, Dearns no future in black, Love what could have been last couple of years.

Oh fuck off Fehi, why aye man.

Yessss. Wow, that recovery and down field kick from Cam was shit. Bin him quick

Aumua stone walled three runners in about a minute there. Reminds me of something I used to say about Ravens Linebacker Ray Lewis back in his prime - when he hits you, you stay hit.

@canefan said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:

Shouldn't have kicked. A 2023 Roigard would have run the full length of the field.

It beggars belief that we are losing this guy. Get the lawyers in and try to get him out of his contract ASAP

In all seriousness Clarke hasn't had many great games for the ABs. He'd been inconsistent until last year and while he was clearly our best winger last year he only played a few games due to injury.

Let's not rewrite his career based on a few good games.

Imagine having both of them in the AB squad

Hit the 60th minute and bang.... Roigard is back.

Love must have been taking fend lessons from Cory Jane. Delicious run, deserved a try only for tits for hands Cam to spill it

Chill with the fancy shit Love.

@Bones said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:

Love is shit

Agree. As far as I can remember he was the first person in the entire world, in entire history, to miss a kick at this stadium. Not what I am looking for in an AB.

That was pretty awesome from Dearns

LOL that's a hell of a way to fuck up a try. Grounding it on your own arm.

I don't disagree.

I'd pick Fehi in black this year.

The question is can he deliver in super rugby semis/finals and tests.

This dry weather rugby is shit. Bring back the old stadium please

Has Jordie had a hand transplant and Shields was the donor?

Based on his 7s career I'd say yes.

As it is the Canes will get knocked out in the quarters by the Brumbies as per usual.

@antipodean said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:

Shit handling in the last quarter last week too. Frustrating

@antipodean said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:

Higgins leaving has released any pressure on Jordie to perform.

@Bones said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:

holeeeee fuuuuck. That kick...was that Love?

Went back and checked.

Yes

Brilliant by Jordie. Proctor you mong. No pressure at all

Who served up that intercept?

Was that another example of Proctor's distribution?

@canefan said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:

Who served up that intercept?

Proctor

Turning into a bad habit

A brilliant assist, just for the wrong team....

FFS, bad option taking. Not what the Canes or the ABs want. Making Rova feel a little better

Worth noting that Fehi's first (?) try was from a deflection from a tapped Proctor balloon ball.
