2018 Brisbane Global Tens

[Higgins]

@tim Neither do the Hurricanes whilst that number 17 is on the field

[Bones]

Jebus, Savea is so cake now? What the hell happened. Now he even has to stop running just to catch the ball.

[Nepia]

Akira seems to be playing halfback.

Now the jumpers are pissing me off - why the fuck are the Canes playing in blue? Idiots.

Makes about as much sense as the Green Highlanders jersey. If they wanted something different, perhaps a jersey in the colours of the other franchise partner provinces?

[Tim]

That was a maul?

[Bones]

@canefan the green Jersey is ace. And does it's job.

Nah, the Green jersey doesn't clash with any other team in the competition - I think most people like the Green now. About half the teams have blue jerseys.

[Nepia]

Blues, season of glory coming ...

[Stockcar86]

No surprise it was JGB who fell off that tackle

[Tim]

Big George is a strong fluffybunny. Savea is mud.

[Bones]

Blues win preseason again. Congrats!

Canes deserved to lose just for the abysmal Jersey. The colour not even unique and they can hardly call it a marketing ploy, they'd probably sell around the zero mark.

[Bones]

@tim George Mahala?

[African Monkey]

Clearly a sign of things to come for us......

That was a better attempt than most Aussie commentators.

How fresh did he sound at the start of the interview, then midway he started speaking with a normal Kiwi accent.

[Tim]

@bones LOL. She's thoroughly rootable though, so gets a pass.

Not sure about "thoroughly" but each to their own eh!

[African Monkey]

Tamati Tua's grown.

[Tim]

Great work to get the captain's name wrong.

[KiwiMurph]

Blues champions. Yeah the boys.

Nice to have some silverware. Carlos comes back and they win a title - boom.

Canes played that final smartly. Blues not surprsingly finished the stronger.

Didnt seem to be the injury toll of last year for any of the teams.

[Tim]

Credit to Sam Nock for stepping up in the final. Great tackle at the end.
