Funaki has been pants.

I remember there were people on here calling for him to be an all black not long ago lol

@Fale009 said in SF: Hurricanes v Blues:

Bench hookers really are an achilles heel across NZ rugby. Cannot for the life of me understand how we have so many hookers that can't feed a lineout.

and not just recently either.. its been that way for far too long

@Rocket1 Think hes purely a 15 but he looks like a very good prospect.

Botched another try. Naholo was free and steaming down the sideline

Love Lakai's engine. Just never quits

canefan

I'm happy we wereade to struggle tonight. Smashings like the one we dealt to the Brumbies don't bring many learnings

canefan

BOK has ripped us off at the breakdown again

canefan

The black bus left the station!

Canes taking it to a new level when a half century and 40 point win isn't a smashing.

Felt like I was watching Waisake there. Incredible

Donsteppa

This second half is not at all ominous for next week....

canefan

Fehi been very quiet tonight. As long as he comes away injury free that's great

I know Canes fans complain about some of Laidlaws selection choices but boy are they by far the best coached side in the comp

The theme of the last few weeks of the Blues is a competitive start and then fall away badly

Highly predictable game

Who did that stupid chip kick?

Holland and Jane say Hi

jimmyb

@canefan yes those two are v v v good and can imagine international gigs for both of them in a few years

Oh Enari…. Oh boyπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

How's Barret gone at 15 for the Blues?

Bones

Oudenyran puts his hand up for the apprenticeship.

canefan

Oudenryn with a great try

For me, not terrible. Just tried to do the basics, doesn't pose any threat with ball in hand

I would honestly go with Devery over Tuputupu. Too hard to win tight contests when you can't win your own lineout ball.

Just throw short godammit

Oudenryn always looks to me like he has had to put down his beer and put out his cigarette before getting on the field. He is going to be a fan favourite I reckon.

Victor Meldrew

Pencil in Odi as an AB bolter.

Bones

@Crazy-Horse get him and Preston off the bench at the same time.

Looks like a FAB

Landers92

Crazy to think Crusaders had the choice of Oudenryn and Letiu. They were spoiled for choice. Letiu looks extremely promising too. Excited to see Oudenryn get a full season next year

Moorby to come from behind and get the try scoring record

canefan

Canes have a subpar first half, less than accurate game in general, and still put 57 on the Blues. Crazy
