Sharks vs Hurricanes

@mikey07 Not weird at all. It has probably to do with composition of the refereeing "pods" that have been allocated to the games in South Africa in these rounds. There have been a lot of complaints about SA referees being biased in games between South African and non-South African teams, and Berry is currently the only neutral in the two pods working in South Africa.

Good on the Canes for taking points on offer by taking penalty kicks. One bad miss by Barrett which could be costly at a World Cup...
I’d love it if DuPreez was a kiwi. Shit, what a unit. Young too.
Goosen has a bit of Cory Jane about him right now, that was a really well taken try.
Fifita’s tackle deserved red. We want Mongrel in our 6, not shoulder charge stupidity.
And the two tries he set up and 80+% goal kicking could win a world cup, but let's just focus on the miss shall we. If I were to criticize BB it would be for his punting. Very farking ordinary.
Was a good win, but probably would have been much closer without Ardie. He's gone next level now.
-
@Rancid-Schnitzel Yeah Ardie is a machine this year. Aslong as we have him fit and healthy through the playoffs we can beat anyone on our day.
-
Was it a bad miss or wasn’t it?

Sharks were desperate to win and it showed in their niggle
Canes pack showed up this week after getting dusted up vs Jaguares 2 weeks ago
They were resolute under immense pressure
Sharks had 70% Territory overall
IMO it was their most impressive performance of the season along with their 2 wins vs the Highlanders
Canes are blessed to have A Savea TJ Barrett Bros & Laumape
Hell of a quintet to rely on

Danny Toala and Salesi Rayasi have been flown over to join the Hurricanes after both Wes Goosen (hamstring) and Matt Proctor (pectorial) have returned home.

@Nepia hopefully Goosen isn't serious. He was starting to hit top form.

Yeah, he’s finally been living up to @Winger ‘S fluffing despite being average previously.
-
@Nepia yeah and is way better than Jonah Lowe.

Like we ever know how good Magpies players are, they never get to play. 😜
-
@Nepia maybe they just aren't good enough.
-
Actually wouldn't mind seeing Lowe come in for Goosen if he is out, they seem quite similar. What's Lowes defence like?
Wouldn't mind seeing 13. Umaga-Jensen 14. Lowe 15. Toala against the Blues.

Yeah, that's why Magpies never get gametime in other franchises ....
Damn, is this how you Wellington fans are always going to get when after three years one of your over hyped players finally comes right? :face_with_stuck-out_tongue:

Just having a look on Insta and it looks like Goosen's injury is probably more precautionary. He looks fine in the below photo:
