20’ Live Score: Rebels 3 – Hurricanes 9

And a poor restart doesn’t go the 10 so the Canes get a scrum centre field.

So good options, for the Canes, both sides of the field. they go to Jane and the Rebels somehow get it and they go wide to Sau into the Canes half. Neville again charges on. Ellison gets over the advantage line. another charge and now a penalty is coming. it is turned over and they come back to the penalty.

Woodward lines up and Knocks it over to put the Rebels on the scoreboard.

18’ Live Score: Rebels 0 – Hurricanes 9

And now a penalty against Neville for tackling in the air. The canes clear to the Rebels half.

Solid lineout and they go wide to Julian Savea, and now a penalty to the Canes for not releasing!

Barrett lines up and puts it over!

16’ Live Score: Rebels 0 – Hurricanes 6

Good restart but the Canes go to hand again. they go wide to Smith and Leiua. And the Rebels after a good hit from Leafa get a scrum feed.

So 2nd scrum of the day. as the possession sits at 76% to the Canes. Scrum goes down. and it goes down again. and the Rebels get the shove on again and they go to Inman who goes into the 22m but the Canes turn it over and clear it out. But the Rebels still are in the Canes half.

Good lineout to Neville, they drive it on now wide to Woodward who tries to get a back handed pass away, but it goes into touch.

11’ Live Score: Rebels 0 – Hurricanes 6

First scrum of the game. Packs are pretty much the same weight.

The Rebels drive the scrum on and PENALTY! and Hegarty lines up and puts it right. Scores stay the same.

Good drop out sees the Rebels Jones taken into touch so the Canes get a lineout and a chance to clear. Perenara puts the box kick in, and the Rebels defuse. Jones and Neville both go forward as the Rebels get some possession, but the Canes counter ruck and have ball in the Rebels half. They go ahead through Levave, then Barrett and the Rebels give away a penalty for offside.

Barrett lines up and slots the GOAL!

4’ Live Score: Rebels 0 – Hurricanes 3

and from the kick off the Canes go wide, they seem intent on holding the ball.but the Rebels pressure and get a turn over and a scrum feed 30m out from the Canes line. good hit by Ellison.

And Barrett converts from 45m out to give the Canes an early lead. Goal

0’ Live Score: Rebels 0 – Hurricanes 0

And here comes the kick off. And Barrett gets it under way for the Canes with a short kick off. Jones takes it and the Rebels clear it. the Hurricanes decide to run it back. Arte Savea goes ahead. now they go left to Leiua, Barrett goes for a run. 10 phases now.

Still the Canes come 14 phases.and now a penalty to the Canes for offside at the ruck.

Evening all, well this could be an interesting game. i am still unsure who to pick here. what does everyone think?

It funny a few years ago I wrote how Pat McCabe should be moved to inside centre(http://www.theroar.com.au/2011/03/16/time-to-bid-adieu-to-matt-giteau/). This year he seems to have really grown into the position. His form warrants his selection in at least the game day 22. It would be interesting to see him slip to 13, and at the Brumbies with Christian at 12 this could happen. But, does Kuridrani deserve to be dropped? And who would they do that against?
I do like the idea though of seeing McCabe at 13. his defence is solid enough.
I have always been a fan of AAC, but the Wallabies have such strike power in 11, 14 and 15 positions. Tomane, Cummins, Speight (later in the year), Folau, Mogg, Betham, Davies, Morohan , that i worry that with AAC’s penchant for not passing, they will not get the opportunities to open the game up. This could give McCabe the chance with his new found distributing skills to come in and help in that regard.
Perhaps even the Honey Badger, that frees up a wing spot as well.
It is still a good problem to have with lots of options.

Who will wear the Wallabies No. 13 in 2014?

mate check out the stuff on www.news.com.au or www.rugbyheaven.com.au. there is a lot there.

Nice Brett agree (maybe for the first time 🙂 ) with what you have said.

if they can build to crowds of 5000-10000 then they will need to look at another venue, but I think that will take time. until then, you are correct, there is no other ground I can think of.

Canberra's NRC team will be a red and white failure

I played for Norths and then Uni-Norths, so of course share the hatred of the red and white. but, I am also a realist. they have the money. the team needs the money. if to have an NRC team in the ACT it has to be red and white, then I will support it.
and, to be honest, we should be all supporting them irrespective of their colours. they are representing the ACT and surrounding areas and we need to get behind them.
if they can’t show the support, then the they may get kicked out of the NRC for a team that can. We need to get over the colours and support the fact we have an NRC team.

Gees this could be a cricket score! great entertainment!

Hurricanes vs Cheetahs: Super Rugby live scores, blog

The STormers get the ball back from the kick off.

more lateral passing, they need players running straight and hard.

Now a turnover and Anscombe goes into the the Stormers 22m and is just brought down.great run from him, and great chase from the 100 match man De Villiers.

Chiefs get the lineout and now they drive on 1m to go now. and it is a TRY!!! who will come up with it? Looks like Latimer will get the T against his name!

Well Latimer lines up and puts in a shocker! and that is the ball game.

So the Chiefs come away with a win. Not sure if the score line reflects the game Though.

And the decision is try!!!!

Cruden lines up and nails it. That is the nail in the coffin for the Stormers who have looked much better in the last 10 minutes.

78’ Live Score: Chiefs 31 – Stormers 20

Tagicakibau takes it from the kick off and the Stormers look to run it and poor chip kick sees the Chiefs regather, they go over the line!

Was it a try?

Gee you reckon the Stormers would realise the chip kicks aren’t working by now. and Koloamatangi may have a try here.

78’ Live Score: Chiefs 24 – Stormers 20

And the STormers go wide and it is Kolisisiya storming (pardon the pun) ahead. 10m out now. Burger again, more retention, 2m now. Grant goes for a run, now Kebble. and Carr is over! He has done well since coming on. But that was some great play from the Stormers.

Grant lines up and it is over!

Well this is a grandstand finish!

76’ Live Score: Chiefs 24 – Stormers 20

Lineout now for the Stormers 5m out. well taken by Steenkamp and the Stormers drive it on and get another penalty. The Chiefs will have to be careful here. There have been a few penalties in a row. and Grant boots it into touch.

Another 5m lineout to the Stormers. But it is loose and the Chiefs clear.Well it was that man RETALLICK.

Now the Stormers have to start again.

72’ Live Score: Chiefs 24 – Stormers 13

Scrappy lineout, and the STormers secure it and get a penalty. Grant goes deep into Chiefs territory.

Fruean is offf again and looks like Tikoirotuma is now a permanent replacement.

Stormers secure the lineout and look to drive on. at the back with Kolisisiya. Now they go wide and de Allende goes for a run.

Now penalty to the Stormers. there is still time, and they need to get over the line.

Chiefs again with a good scrum as Fruean takes it on to inside the 22m line. Some nice play by the forwards and the Chiefs are 10m out.

Penalty coming for the Chiefs as Kerr-Barlow surges. now RETALLICK, 2ms out now.

Chiefs go wide and Cruden gets a sneaky ball to Fruean, but Joubert brings it back for the penalty.

And Cruden goes for touch, the Chiefs going for the bonus point.,

More replacements, Fourie off for the Stormers ans the Chiefs drive it on, But now a turnover, and the Stormers clear it again.

66’ Live Score: Chiefs 24 – Stormers 13

It is certainly a lively game.

Wholly molly The Stormers get it to Aplon in space and he races 40m for a TRY!! That is better play from the Stormers.

Grant lines up and puts it over! Looks like Catrakilis has been replaced by Grant here for the Stormers.

64’ Live Score: Chiefs 24 – Stormers 13

Stormers go deep and now the Chiefs kick it back the mark is taken by Schrueder who duffs the quick tap and now the Chiefs are on attack again!. Looks like the Stormers have made a change with Groom replaced by Schreuder.

Good scrum Chiefs again, they go wide but more dropped ball and the Stormers have it, but another nothing kick and the Chiefs have it again.

Stormers get a penalty for not releasing. More replacements with Kebble on for the Stormers.

The STormers go into the Chiefs 22m, but intercept Fruean and the Chiefs go wide but a forward pass.
