@Canes4life Yep I a bit of a Bason fan myself, lol but don't mind Tuptupu either.
Think Tuputupu was preferred hooker in general at Turbos too wasn't he? Not sure, but as I say I bit keen on both of them.
Tuputupu is extremely lucky to still have a contract
His Super Rugby career consists of not being able to throw into a lineout and on field discipline issues.

Laidlaw likes players who have no dicipline.

But he's becoming a very useful selector for Scotland.

Has he had on field discipline issues? How many times he been penalised this year? I sure someone has got the data etc, just something I hadn't noticed (that doesn't mean much though).

Seems there are more empty seats than we have been led to believe.
Huh? They never said today was sold out
Bumped into Jase Ryan and Neil Barnes at the gate. Barnsey loved the Central Vikings jersey I'm wearing hahaha.

They said there were only a few tickets left. Looked more than few seats but I suppose it depends on the definition of a few.

You have to remember its for both games
There will be people that only watch one of the games today or rock up halfway through etc

So similar to a Warriors sell out then.

Jordie is doing some good things too
Lovely pass to Proctor
Oh I thought it was just through the hand? And then overran on support... shit pass from Proctor though

The support line was fine
Nothing like a dry track and good handling conditions to expose the Brumbies for who they are
@Bones said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:
Brumbies a fucking shambles.
Canes not exactly clinical, but having a nice training run.
I thought they'd struggle more with their starting forwards. I think the Brumbies are in for it when the firepower comes off the bench.
@Fale009 said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:
Fuckin poor game IQ from the Canes there. Lucky the Brumbies stuffed it but when you have the ball with 15 seconds left, it should go to halftime on your terms. Giving them a chance to do something there is terrible game mismanagement
I disagree. Brumbies are so shit today it was worth a crack.

Yeah I'm not sure canes will be happy with only having 19 points up against seemingly a team of invalids for 40 minutes.
If brumbies actually remember how to rugby in the second half and canes don't step it up a bit, I can see it getting tighter.

This will be the interesting part. After seeing the Brumbies beat the Highlanders while somehow not appearing to play much rugby - whether the Brumbies can actually front now....
For now I'm enjoying seeing them still on Nil for being such a disorganised and negative crew...
@Jnr said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:
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.

Be hard pressed to say it hasn't worked out in the past for the ABs to go with the hot thing (s) on the wing in WC year.
