@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.

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).

Bullshit they put a holiday surcharge on purchases. Just swallow it

Seems there are more empty seats than we have been led to believe.

Huh? They never said today was sold out

Jordie what the fuck? First touch, imitates his brother again

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.

Jordie with 3 turnovers so far.

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

Great by Love. Surely Rennie will give him time in the 10 jersey.

Love absolutely running the whole show so far, all over it.

So similar to a Warriors sell out then.

What on earth are the brumbies up to?

That is atrocious defence.

Good accurate play there Canes

Brumbies seem to have a player malfunction every minute

Idiotic by Wright.

Punished by a good Canes side

At least one more.

Roigard rocks and diamonds again to start a game.

The boneheaded plays are just a feature of Jordie's game at this point.

Roigard hesitant and uncharacteristically indecisive at times.

Love makes his first mistake.

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

Hard to believe Brumbies beat the other 4 NZ teams

Nothing like a dry track and good handling conditions to expose the Brumbies for who they are

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

Big, strong, fast and good on the feet.

Brumbies a fucking shambles.

Canes not exactly clinical, but having a nice training run.

Meredith has gone from Wallaby to wannabe this month

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 thought they'd struggle more with their starting forwards. I think the Brumbies are in for it when the firepower comes off the bench.

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...

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.

That's just poor skills. Protect the ball!

Canes looking similar to the first half...

I'd love to see what he could do
