Looking at his comletely dislocated patella, I'd be thinking 8 weeks MINIMUM, as you never want to get onto the chronic dislocation wagon. The Crusaders have half their "stayed @ home" team injured, maiking 2024 very difficult. Injuries SUCK.

Quite a difference in roster quality, always becomes evident over 80 min. I think all players should have at least 3 long, hyphenated names so the commentators take 5min saying them. ????

Canes (dammit looking very good. Roigard just keeps on improving, excellent game. A badly disclocated patella needs quite a bit of rehab. Very unfortunate for him and the team.

Well ladies and gents, that was one hell of a game. I was stoked as a Canes man, was bloody great watch! P***ed about Roigard, but shit happens!

Only team this year that has nearly got the Canes was those lowly Reds.

Been that way for a while I thought to be honest, just rarely happens.

Canes looking unstoppable. Depth is great in pretty much every position. 47-12 away to a team that with another 5 min may well have beaten the Chiefs last week.

First Test July 6 at Forsyth Barr. Might be ok if it's only a dislocation.

Not sure what happened, probably my fault. Apologies if a repeat. Congratulations to the Canes. Looking very good! Enjoyable game. Some very good play.

[But I think JR-K had a hand on the ball all the way to the ground.]

Ironically doesn’t matter these days - refs now have until the next kick off to review.

47-12 and a rout. Highlanders never recovered from the 14 points given away when their fullback was yellow-carded. Hurricanes look the complete deal, but work-ons regarding penalty count against them.

Roar Rookie
Go the Canes, too strong. Great night other than Cam’s injury, that’s worrying. Otherwise Canes looking the goods this year.

An exciting try ruled out due to a knock-on. Which renders redundant some bad sportsmanship from Perenara, who hadn't retired and blocked a quick drop-kick conversion. I like those length-of-the-field grubber-kicking tries, they are very traditional rugby. Back for the scrum.

Yep, no bind or even attempt to bind from 'Landers #6.
