The Hurricanes have 10x All Blacks (Roigard, Love, J.Barrett etc), 2x internationals (Dearns, Shields) and 3x more AB quality players (Numia, Mafileo, Fehi). They are a near-All Black level team. Bordeaux just finished 8th in a 14-team league. Bottom half! Couldn’t make their own playoffs.

@friendtolepers @rugbymemesclub @BMcSport @brumby_fan @haribaldijones It does favour Aussie teams. They are weaker as the results suggest. They play less games against stronger teams.

@brumby_fan @rugbymemesclub @BMcSport @haribaldijones Nope.
Reds/Brums played the bottom 5 teams in the ladder 8x and top 6 teams 6x.
Chiefs/Hurricanes 7x bottom 5, 7x bottom top 6.
Crusaders 6x bottom 5, 8x top 6.

Each team has 14 games in regular season. The Aus teams play the bottom 5 more.
The comp is skewed towards Aus.

@brumby_fan Why would they put a hold?

[1stFive8 @1stFive8]

@friendtolepers @rugbymemesclub @BMcSport @brumby_fan @haribaldijones Or the Force could have just beaten the Blues at home

[1stFive8 @1stFive8]

@friendtolepers @rugbymemesclub @BMcSport @brumby_fan @haribaldijones Why didn't all the Aus teams beat Moana and get bonus points?

[1stFive8 @1stFive8]

@brumby_fan @rugbymemesclub @BMcSport @haribaldijones I know the difference it's 5

[1stFive8 @1stFive8]

@DMAC_1O @Reds_Rugby @ChiefsRugby What was the Chiefs backline to finish the game. Dmac, Hutchinson, Jacomb were all on the pitch?

[1stFive8 @1stFive8]

@TheRugbyIssue These 3x 12s should be interchangeable with 13. Proctor and Reiko are the only 13 options.

[1stFive8 @1stFive8]

@friendtolepers @rugbymemesclub @BMcSport @brumby_fan @haribaldijones The 4 Aus teams played Highlanders and MP 8x total. Won 5x and lost 3x.
If they are so easy beats shouldnt have lost to them and got more bonus points.
Highlanders and MP playing NZ sides more hurts them.

@ChristypDoran Why didn't tmo intervene if lead up to a try?

[1stFive8 @1stFive8]

@ChalynRugby Agree, Beauden keeps failing at the Blues and ABs.
It actually speaks volumes the Blues won a title a title Beaudens gap year.

[1stFive8 @1stFive8]

UBB actually listened to @bensmithrugby and made themselves available for the test

[Ben Smith @bensmithrugby]

Pass the message on to Matthieu Jali-bottle, we’ve organised it. The match will be in Christchurch, 4th July. If you come, you’ll basically play the Hurricanes. 🍼
