The question is why was I not impressed with the Hurricanes in this game?  Remember they were playing against the weakest team in Super Rugby and struggled until minute 70 in that game.  That is definitely not what I expected to happen and to think that other SA teams beat that team with huge scores away - leaves a series question mark as to the quality of rugby played by the Hurricanes.   They have still to play some other stronger teams from SA and that kind of performance would be a headache for their supporters.   
All I can say I was not impressed by the performance of the Hurricanes - and that is a fact of life.

 Mike didnt watch the game but one cant fault your reasoning. Lets hope pap hurricanes receive a severe snotklap from better SA teams.

But Mikey ,it only takes 10 minutes of actual playing by Kiwis to win a game .The rest of the time they just run around taking selfies gawking at the wee lasses and looking good until coach tells them to stop goofing aboot and finish already !Hey beanbreath ,there arent any better saffa teams ,if there are where have they been the last decade or so ? Heck even the Crusties have more trophies than SA and Oz combined !And TWICE as many as SA !

warped DUD bent down under refs have created a mythological record for the hapless wee abs and the nz super 15 sides.When you crook on a massive scale the results mean nothing. 
Beeno enlightening poor warped DUD.  One hopes the poor dear will not burst int tears again!

 Beanbreath ,refs blah blah blah meanwhile NZ wins all the marbles .So how many super titles does your team have again ? Does it look like a donut ? This year the Hurricanes may well win it and then every single Kiwi team will have at least one title ,despite SA gerrymandering the comp with this stupid conference system .Still I suppose if it wasnt for that there wouldnt be ANY saffa teams in the finals last year .Oh the shame ......

Taking into account the fact that the Kings is by some distance the weakest team in Super Rugby - that ten minutes will not recur against a stronger team.  By then the Hurricanes will be so far behind in points they would need more than the number of points to catch up.  
Sad to say - but the Hurricanes must not feel very comfortable by their performance this morning.

 They were 10 point below the mark where I would say they had a reasonable game.  I gave the Hurricanes to beat the Kings by 32 points - - hence the 10 points below par.  Just not good enough.
