These Hurricanes can be so damn difficult to predict… moments of brilliance or moments of utter crap
Easy try
Julian Savea scores… Canes toying with the Rebels now

Beale trying his luck, by taking the conversion in front, Haha
High-scoring game, hey!
Good morning guys, 6 tries in 33 min the defences must be poor?
More than a point a minute… far more.
I’ve been updating scores frantically…. hehehe
Try Canes… Jack Lam
Hurricanes looking absolutely awesome now. Lam in
45 @ Bullscot:
Hello Bully… aweful Rebels defence!
Hurricanes 38 / 17 Rebels
@ Bullscot:Morning, yup, defence didn’t arrive on the Rebels bus tonight, but the Canes looking very slick.
49@ grootblousmile:
Ok thought so, just after I posted the Canes got another one!
Lemoenetyd
7 Tries in the first half
51@ Just For Kicks:
Sounds like a nice game for Canes and neutral fans to watch, some days everything just seems to click for a team and they can turn it on like this, am guessing even the marginal decisions will go to the Canes on a day like this.
Morning Everyone.
Totally forgot about this game, probably have not missed much it seems if the score is anything to go by.
Hurricanes have always had fantastic backline players…. and have mostly played far below their true potential, but the day they nail the passes, they can be sublime
@ Bullscot:Lets hope some of the decisions go against the Canes in the second half – they’re ruining my Bru result! Hehehe
55 @ Puma:
Morning Oompie… you only missed 7 great tries… hehehe
Good MOrning all
@ Puma:Morning Puma, arch rival for the day, hehe. Just missed a bit of slick handling by the Canes.
