Geez Laumape is soooo much like early Nonu! Except Nonu had turned a corner at the same age.

Also, Nonu would have kept going forward, in the end the other midget 12 drove Laumape back.

I think he's actually a guy who has got worse as he's developed.

So... like early Nonu.... when he was an egg and showing no sign of change.

Breakdowns are a mess, people may as well have a beer in hand the amount of leaning done

I hope Laumape takes Reece with him to France, and they can dive together.

Quite obviously the worst NZ team, but they're still beating the best Ozzie team at half time. Despite playing like dicks

Except Nonu wouldn't have been driven backwards. Also, I misinterpreted your comment until your clarifications on this page.

Nonu probably would have picked a fight with the player that charged him too, rather than picking fights with make believe dissers.

I bet there are nz rugby players that wish they got half the favourable media coverage that Laumape gets.

He can do no wrong in their eyes.

With just a little bit of luck, the Canes would be 10 (or more) points up.

Upset coming? How good is their bench today?

Going by my stomach, there's at least one upset happening tonight

Lomax has got a serious problem with his tackle technique. No way are you trying to wrap with your arm vertical. Combined with his poor scrummaging, I don't want him near the ABs.

And why take off a loose forward and then put a winger (Savea) on the scrum? Just take off the winger.

Seems an All Black TH prop thing. IIRC Nepo Laulala and Ofa Tu'ungafasi have been carded for the same thing not too long ago.

@stargazer Nepo was on the receiving end too from Marika!

I don't think Love could have made it any more obvious he was going to put up a bomb there

[antipodean]

The hurricanes look so poor and unstructured it almost looks like they're not coached.

FFS Roy guard, pass the fucking ball

[Anonymous]

Marshall confused how an obviously offside player is offside

[Stargazer]

What a bs card!

[Chris]

WTF Doleman you are a complete idiot

[taniwharugby]

@stargazer given there was another tackler already in action, zero effect on play.

[antipodean]

Let's be honest and agree the hurricanes loose forwards are poor.

[Rebound]

@taniwharugby but it's cynical. Deserves a yellow. It's about time these cynical offences get carded

[Steven Harris]

@chris shocker from Doleman
