Super Rugby: Hurricanes vs. Stormers in Palmerston North (26/04/2013)

We just all need to relax. Super Rugby form does not equal test match form. Nonu and Dagg were **** in Super Rugby last year - they both performed more than adequately for the All Blacks though. I don't think Super Rugby has much to do with test matches. Put these guys into the All Blacks and they will perform like they have in the past.

I think with Weepu it works the other way around

Stormers had a pretty bad night and should have put the Hurricanes away properly
At least their campaign and tour is back on track

I hate games when Walsh is the referee.

Really? There was nothing impressive about knock ons. Unless you like that sort of ****! I hate it.

Right now, if I don't see an NZ team butcher momentum by knocking it on or being ill disciplined, that'd be the day.

Reds vs Blues next. Don't disappoint me NZ team number 2. I won't get my hopes up.

That is the danger when your game plan is pass pass pass pass pass pass. When the defense is up for it and the pressure creates errors the opposition do not have far to go to capitalize on it.

Of course it's a massive over-reaction - I've said this many times; I wear fanaticsm on my seleve!

But right now; I see very little light of this tunnel. As we speak, the Blues are playing stupidly and getting penalised everywhere. And we can't always depend on the leadership of Richie and Dan. We need to be able to play well as a group without them.

I guess we';ll see eventually with Richie sitting out the June tests, but I'm still not hopeful at this point. Who knows, we might be able to play at international level at some point....

Why are you saying that? NZ rugby look very good and scary. Even the Highlanders are one of the top teams in attack. Its just hey do not have Adam Thompson with his speed to help them give that final quick ball to finish of the chances. But in attack all Kiwi teams look scary mate
