This. But they’re being matched by some of the Canes. A year ago I’d have laughed at the thought of Louisi starting by choice.

Eves

What’s got into him?

What was that behind the back offload

I want to see Fatialofa on soon and Fifita to the loose.

Everyone in the Canes think they’re Lebron now

Looks like the second half is starting off the same as the first.

What a bullshit call, the Crusaders player went down and then got back up again and was leaning on the Canes player the whole time.

Although, calls like that seem to be prevalent these days.

Time for another Julian Savea carry, it's been half an hour since the last one.

You failed to mention Ihaia West

fudge off Goldie. Jules is a passenger.


He could run off Lumpys shoulder in the midfield to actually make a contribution.

Sly grin on King's face.

How many other guys still around who played Super 12? Not many.

Comeback on here?

Nothing wrong with the tackle Justin.

I would have loved to have seen how Alex Fidow went in this game.

Woot!

Allah Alaalatoa?

Justin...

26 - 19 Canes.

The TMO seems to have awarded that on the post pad moving as opposed to any vision of the ball touching it.

Crusaders have dominated the last 30 minutes of this game 19-5.

The Canes had the first 20 and have since stalled out.

Never, never write off the Saders.

This is seriously impressive from the Sadists.

Their back and forward leaders off after 10 minutes, as well as all their other missing starters, and behind 21-0 against a rampant home team in confident form.

Grafting hard

Buzzing harder.

Good sub Aso for Savea.


He has done nothing Jeff.

Yeah he was shit.

He had looked like getting back some form.

Hurricanes have been avoiding the Saders lineout.

Any decent linkz chaps?

Did you watch the Brisbane 10's?


Just a waste. He will not be starting for the Canes by the end of the season.

If I was a NH team I would not sign him. Matt Banahan is better.

Should have gone left...

Nice pass, BB.

Eves pinged. Again.

Funnell with his 487th crooked throw of his career...

Errors starting to spoil this spectacle. Whoever can hold the ball for a few phases will win this

The return of the messiah.

Our title winning lock combo is back.

Good to see Fatialofa out there again.

Nope. Missed them.

Well, if he has become journeyman, you can expect T14 sides to be queuing up to sign him.

Other rumour in France is BB is on his way over after RWC19.

I was about to say we're into the last 20 and the Canes would probably blow the Saders away and we see a couple of errors and another penalty.

And Funnell lets them off the hook.

The Canes have to score next or they are done.

The grubber kick seems a strange attacking option for the Canes there

Beautiful

There was a face high tackle on Fifita.
