Canes penalty, deep in their own half, over the ball… holding on.

Barrett to relieve the pressure
34

BrumbiesBoy on 13 March 2015 at 9:38 am

But don’t tell Cane I said so.

What always amazes me is how many new players the New Zealand teams bring through and how quickly they step up and have confidence in Super Rugby.

Take this Nehehehe Scud-msicile oke (Nehe Milner-Skudder), fullback of the Canes… runs and plays with such confidence!

Ihaia West puts over a long range penalty, which bounces on and over the cross-bar.

Blues re-take the lead.

Blues 20 / 18 Hurricanes

Short-lived lead, as Julian Savea goes to score under the sticks

Canes penalty, not rolling away… jeez it’s difficult to roll away when you are pinned down

BrumbiesBoy on 13 March 2015 at 9:48 am

Got Canes by 11, I think.
45

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 9:48 am

Canes penalty on about the Blues 22, close to touch… about 5m in… Barrett will go for goal.
46

44 @ BrumbiesBoy:
I have them by 17
47

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 9:49 am

Well missed left by Barrett
48

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 9:51 am

Nonu knocks, on the Blues 5m line…
49

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 9:52 am

Nonu’s hands not the best anymore…

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 9:53 am

Blues relieving penalty in their own 22
53

McLook on 13 March 2015 at 9:54 am

Close scoreline. Blues hang in; not doing much. Pickup and go seems to be the main approach.
54

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 9:55 am

20 Minutes to go in the game
55

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 9:56 am

Blues kickable penalty… and they could re-take the lead here…
56

McLook on 13 March 2015 at 9:56 am

Nice speed onto the back; blues. Forcing a penalty.
57

McLook on 13 March 2015 at 9:57 am

On to the ball. Not back.
58

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 9:58 am

Eish, there seemed to be a deliberate knee on a Blues player, by the Canes No 5, James Broadhurst!

West misses the penalty.
59

McLook on 13 March 2015 at 9:59 am

West missed the kick. Aag shame.
60

grootblousmile on 13 March 2015 at 10:00 am

Blues 7m out… knock…

Barrett clears the lines.
