I'm feeling it. The Crucifiction. The long white cloud. Nailed to the cross.

Good work.

How long is Shields out with his shoulder injury?

Shocking lack of leadership in the pack last week. Missed Vito big time.

Let me just say fudge you Sards, I hope your Shorks lose so badly you jump ship again, but to the Stormers you turncoat!

Now that I've got that out of the way, this game is a real test of character for the young Hurricanes, after that loss to the Cheetahs they will be pretty unhappy, time to turn it all around and get a big W.

I wish the Canes all the luck they can get.

The Sharks are hardly intimidating this year. No fear here.

Vito out. Lam to 6 and Levave to 8. Thrush comes onto the bench.

Also, Shields should be back after their bye.

Oh noes, VitooOOoooo GOOOoooOOOOOoooonnNNNNnnnnnnne!!!

We're f**ked without Vito and Shields.

At least until the bye round, i.e. 2 weeks after this weekend.

Vito is hopefully back at the same time.

The Sharks loosies will barrel through our lot. Our lineout is shaky without the Vito option.

Hurricanes at home, and angry after their loss, will bounce back and win this one handsomely. Sharks will by now be trip fatigued, and will fall miserably here.

Hurricanes by 12+. Here. First.

Ted. · Post by **Ted.** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 7:33 am

Oh fudge off, would ya, I'm over this shit.

Clogs unique way of trolling the opponents. May work this weekend. I'll tip the Canes and the Shorks will won, its been this way all year.

Naah Clogs, Sharks by a ball hair.

Beaver_Shark · Post by **Beaver_Shark** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 7:58 am

Teams have been going in a WLW sequence this season. The Sharks are coming off a win, and the Canes lost their last one. So Canes to win here. We might be luckier next week against the Blues.

Harbinger · Post by **Harbinger** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 8:18 am

As much as I love Taranaki with the perfect coned mountain, the endless rangers, the violent but mysterious oceans and the many neat little Islands and Peaks (paratutu etc) and prestigous rivers... The place is absolutely magnificently f**king boring as bat shit. Why oh why the fudge does anyone actually live there? I can't believe the place actually has a positive population growth rate, especially since the farming boom has ended.

Harbinger · Post by **Harbinger** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 8:21 am

Do people live there because of the gas and shit? I know our Resource rich brothers are raped and pillaged economically to prop up other failing states/provinces to avoid their countries inevitable economic demise once those various states and provinces default!

He has a niggle, plus he has played 80 minutes for much of the season, i reckon he might have more value from the bench. It does take away much of the hard edge of our pack though.

Cartman · Post by **Cartman** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 1:04 pm

I wonder if the Sharkies on here knows who is the second fastest player in their squad (Mvovo obviously the fastest)
Anyone?

Nope, the next bok fullback actually

the curse · Post by **the curse** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 2:21 pm

only time I tipped the Canes this season they surrendered a 21 point lead..

so I just cant tip them anymore, Sharks to win quite comfortably imo..

kiwidutchie · Post by **kiwidutchie** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 11:31 pm

Half decent ref this week. Should be a good game.

red pen · Post by **red pen** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 12:06 am

Charl McLoed will take the usual 2 steps before passing the ball after a line out, scrum or maul. The Canes will use the time taken for the "McLoed 2 Step" & shut down any Sharks back line move.

Os DuRant at 9 would provide a faster link between forwards & backs at this point.

What is the expected crowd attendance for this thread?

kiwidutchie · Post by **kiwidutchie** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 12:15 am

1 Hurricanes 1.87
2 Sharks 1.87

TAB are sittin' on the fence on this one.

Paul Jordaan I would imagine

Next would be between:
Botes
Coetzee
Daniel
JP
Kankowski
Burden

We've got pretty quick loosies, but the other two are very slow (Deysel and Alberts)

Sards · Post by **Sards** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 7:09 am

Havent much hope for the Sharks Im afraid...although they did surprise me last week....

RiaanYsterIII · Post by **RiaanYsterIII** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 7:38 am

I see the sharks giving up a 20 point lead to the canes in the first 15 minutes, then grinding and chipping away at the lead until the deficit is 3, after which the canes quickly score another 15 points which breaks the sharks.

Riaan Viljoen according to SA Rugby mag so it must be true

That's quite surprising. He looks like a carthorse.
