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.

That's just poor skills. Protect the ball!

Canes looking similar to the first half...

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

Moorby is having a pretty poor game.

@Bones said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:

He's a carthorse of a player.

Not sold on Roigalrd at all.

So they can fire up after all.

That was sweet

@george33 said in Hurricanes vs Brumbies:

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

Talk of the Brumbies' demise may have been premature.....

That passing was simply outstanding - wonderful try

That's quite a decent substitute front row coming on for the Canes...

Ok these takes are wild

One average performance in a mid-round game does not mean he's regressing.

Nah, he's the best by miles - just expressing concern

probably the best two line out throws I have seen from Aumua all season

Pretty good finish from the journeyman Moorby

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

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.

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.
