Hurricanes vs Highlanders
-
Recorded game and just watched replay.<br><br>
Awesome win! But Beauden nearly fooked it again with the kicking. <br><br>
Few quick points.<br>
-Corey Jane is back. He had a great game. Proctor was lively too. <br>- A Smith had a shocker.<br>
- J Savea is a disgrace. I don't think he should get picked for the ABs until the RC. His lil bro was awesome.<br>
- I think I could live with Lima at 10 for the ABs.<br>
-Laumape is a unit and a half.
-
<p>HMMM I haven't seen the game yet but according to some Crusader fans I though the Canes were suppose to lose this game. :whistle: :think:</p>
-
<p>Just back from watching both games and I must say I enjoyed both, Highlanders just a little disappointing but the Canes played some great broken play rugby.</p>
<p>Cudos to them taking the win but luckily no canes fans turned up at the bar so saved me some money</p> -

And Luke Whitelock is a soft sack of shit</p></blockquote>
<br>
He was very quiet, but I thought he got the hit of the night in that 1st half. -

<br>
That's true but he'd also be awesome with the Number 7 jersey on back. -

<br>
It was a great hit<br><br>
I can think of 2 occasions when it would have been more valuable to his team though -
<p>Canes forward pack out played the highlanders, the 8 won us this game.</p>

<br>
Yes, but it was a penalty right near the end that any AB kicker should knock over in their sleep. -

<p>You right about Jane having a good one RS, and Laumape I think is going to end up a pretty good player, as you say he a bloody unit and a half. I also think Proctor could make one or 2 sit up and notice if he keeps going like he has in some of these games!</p>

A lot of forward passes to my eye in this match. Does Mexted's academy up in Palmy do refereeing courses? Because that looked like a Mexted style performance.

<p>He also completely missed the first up tackle on both Shields for his try and Savea's last try. A big red cross for that.</p> -
Some fairly blatant obstruction in that last try. <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://thumbs.gfycat.com/ExaltedGentleCleanerwrasse-mobile.mp4'>https://thumbs.gfycat.com/ExaltedGentleCleanerwrasse-mobile.mp4</a>

<br>
You're quite right. Both tackles were his to make and he missed them both.<br><br>
If Luke Whitelock had done that wearing black he'd get crucified.
