Shithouse conditions.

Soggy and cold enough to be like a bright yellow variety of gazpacho soup.

Does anyone else hear Bono singing "I'm at a place called vertigo! DONDE ESTAS!" in their heads when they hear the commentator's mention Halaholo?

Canes by 20. I got both the semis wrong so that's probably the hex - as if the Canes needed one to choke in a grand final . . .

Getting the sense that Jantjies is going to have a proper shit evening.

More class from Barrett. He's so hot right now.

Denied. Fair call. Great finish by Jane unrewarded.

I think Shields just murdered someone.

Put that down to offensive d.

That might be my rapper name.

Captain Fend dances down the sideline again.

Offensive D dropping dope hits,
Your ball skills is the drizzling shits,

Peep my line speed,
Make you look lethargic bitch,
Like you been smokin' that weed
You're out of your element like Donnie, son,
Go home motherfucker and do a cross stitch.

In my hood I'm a hero.

Kirsten Zemke was one of my mentors at uni.

Fuckin staunch defence.

Coles needs to quietly remind the ref that it's illegal for defenders to dive down on grounded players recovering a kick.

Pretty tight at halftime. Lions are going ok, and will have the wind behind them in the second half. Just their passing is sluggish.

Thanks to the big yellow fasi balasi.

Phew. Hurricanes almost Hurricaned it there.

Lions giving the Canes a taste of line speed.

Better tactic in these conditions. Good kick for goal too.

Lions putting in a good shift here, defences both look rock solid so kicking will likely decide it.

The halfback de Klerk is a dangerous bugger, but Jantjies is properly struggling under the sustained pressure. If only Kerr-Barlow was on the Hurricanes bench. I get the feeling he would love to play in this kind of brawling defensive system.

Oooh nasty knock to the head.
