Scary moments there, CC looked like he'd done his ACL for a moment there
Viljoen is a whippet
Impressive of CC to run him down
Been limping all game then sprints like that haha hmmm

Genuine question, what's the difference between this years blues (and last years) with the 2024 Blues? Why the terrible performance?
I feel like the championship team used the ball better. Plummer did a much better job running the team. Underrated performance IMHO

The rules changes have made a huge difference.
Also in 2024 Sotutu and Tuipulotu were having milestone years, supported by Akira and others.

Akira Ioane. Dalton Papalii. Riccitelli. Plummer and Sotutu in career best form. Mark Telea.

Canes should have shut this down. No need to lose a bonus point at the death
Yeah dumb by Sullivan hot on attack.
@KiwiMurph just remember he’s better then Higgins apparently
@Landers92 said in Blues v Hurricanes:
That could be a crucial bonus point lost for the canes
We just clocked off. Stupid

Fair enough though, we were up by a lot. Resting starters in game is a rare luxury

What a shame the game isn't going for another 30 mins. We were coming!
Damn spoke too soon!
@KiwiMurph said in Blues v Hurricanes:
Caleb Clarke is a nice guy and gifted Canes one more chance
A good humanitarian.
Not sure why the Blues hurried after their last try. Should have run down the clock as there was nothing left for them to gain
@African-Monkey should’ve started playing from minute 1 not minute 66
@canefan said in Blues v Hurricanes:
BP taken back. What a night
Canes definitely made a statement tonight. Without Roigard as well, even better.

Was very impressed with Enari who is this guy and where has Enari gone.
Haha he’s come on hasn’t he. Good on him.
I was one of his biggest haters so fair play to the guy.

Funnily enough, tonight he actually played a better game than I’ve ever seen Christie play
@Canes4life I 100% agree I was the same with being a massive hater of his
One of the most comprehensive Canes performances I can remember for some time.
Fehi pulled as a precaution for a hammie twinge
Man I hope Dearns loves this footy so much he decides to move back to NZ and then we can pick him for the ABs. 
@Canes4life Or at the very least signs for the Canes
That'll do.
Too much power, too much class, too much hunger from the Canes for our opponents tonight.
We can approach the rest of the season with a lot of confidence after that.

Blues are just nice guys. They are going to gift Crusaders a home playoff game and then gift them that game as well
Aumua laughing at Wheeler's KFC jibe. I know for a fact the team have a nutritionist this season for the first time in the club's history. There'll be no after match KFC

No Beauden Barrett.
Rieko is better than Taele.
Heem was there for impact plus Fusitu'a, Ta'avao, Beehre, Choat etc
Ofa and Paddy were near their peak too.
