For me, this is a 50/50 game. Hurricanes to win the coin toss.

Anyone who was wondering why the greens rule out working with national have their answer. There is no way a green party could work with a party pushing these policies - if they were inside the tent and these policies got watered down, the greens would never get a green vote again Agree. They're pol...

Game 2 Nuggets v Lakers was awesome, huge comeback from Denver punctuated by a Murray buzzer beater (and in a reversal of game 2 of the 2020 series, it was in AD's face). Lakers will complain about some refs calls but you kind of feel that was their shot. NY v Philly was a crazy comeback, b2b steal...

They're too smart for that.

Any word on Asafo Aumua's injury yet? Nothing specific as to what it is or how long, but this is what we know so far: https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/350252829/hurricanes-face-nervous-wait-after-asafo-aumua-injures-knee-against-fijian-drua We're running out of hookers.

Can't believe the Crusader are seriously being talked about as being cut. They won the previous 6 titles and easily the most successful side. However, the economic side of things never really stacked up to have two teams in the South Island. Its sad but rugby is big business now. Business comes fir...

They really should let the 1-3 seeds pick their opponent though.

It's a shame that Dangelo Russell had such a poor shooting night, as the Lakers might have stolen the first game from the champs. Might be time to get the brooms out, a sweep could be coming.

Crusaders are now paying $21 to win the comp... Does anyone remember how much the Crusaders were paying to win the Super Rugby comp in 1998, when they were last after 4 rounds? Was that 98 or 99? My memory could be wrong, but I thought it was the Crusaders' first title win in 98, when they dropped ...

Is Brinded still there? Nah . Retired , met him and his wife . Highly regarded . Keri Evan’s took over from him . He’s now doing high performance stuff . The other was offered the job - not interested . I don't think I've met him, but he was definitely known amongst his counterparts in Wellington. ...

Thought they would have learned their lesson after they killed the 7s
It's an interesting concept to provide subsidised beer especially in the cost of living crisis.

A bit like tax cuts at the moment.

The Highlanders chose a good time to have a lean season. Their South Island cousins are attracting all of the negative attention. Highlanders have a strong chance of moving into the top 8 to become playoff contenders next week. I haven't seen many of the Highlanders games this season. But they look...

All but 2 of the Crusaders remaining games are at home. In those games they will be facing the Blues, Who they will struggle against, but the opportunity exists to bank at least a few wins this season. I doubt they have enough to make the knockout stage. 5 Wins was enough to get to the knockouts la...

I'm enjoying watching the Knicks v 76ers game. If I had the choice to watch an NBA game live in person, it would probably be Madison Square Garden.

Welcome to a recession year, Crusaders fans. You might as well write the season off now. Tbf to the Crusaders fans they all said this would be a 'rebuilding' year given the loss of talent, new coach etc. But I guess a team with the record of excellence they have built up over the past 25 years even...

That's a lot more comprehensive than I imagined by the rhetoric around the RMA. IMO, that is basically a licence to rape and pillage.

What's the everyone's vibe on the fast track legislation? Personally the idea that major projects can be done quicker makes sense, however having that final decision rest with a minister seems ridiculous without proper safeguards. It seems like a knee jerk sound bite policy which could terrible imp...

I didn't have any issue with the referee's performance either. Even in the second half when the penalty count was 8-zip against the Hurricanes.

Good to see the Fijians in the Hurricanes side play in this game. Some games mean more to players than others.

Hurricanes won ugly. Better than losing pretty.

That was my feel too. I'd like to see the Hurricanes drive off the lineouts a bit more like they did towards the end of the first half.
