Lions v Hurricanes | Super Rugby 2019 Rd 17 Highlights The Hurricanes step it up a gear in the second half to take a decisive 37-17 victory over the Lions. #SuperRugby #LIOvHUR
When there’s big names like dyanti, Barrett, Marx, savea etc playing and the stadium is still mostly empty you know you are in trouble. South Africa needs to encourage fans to show support if they’re to catch up with New Zealand club rugby 🙌🏻
You have the quality players in SA to match NZ, so I do not know why the crowds are terrible. But it is in general, across all the Super rugby franchises, even with NZ. Personally it looks like Super rugby is dying. NZ could have its own league like the UK and still continue to expand on players. If anything, the Kiwis probably should do this, but the downside is that the Kiwi sides will miss out on playing the South Africans, Australian etc, etc sides. But if things carry on this way, then all the Southern Hemisphere sides, other than the rugby championship will go their own way. I fear for the rest of them, other than NZ sides if this happens. NZ can sustain, probably match the UK leagues for money as well if they get it together, then we can take players from the UK like they do to us and pay them UK money and ruin their league by taking all their skill out of the UK. It is no different than what is happening in NZ, SA, Australia, is the pommies are taking all the good players, which means we are on the slide. So perhaps it is time to split away from Super rugby and develop our own leagues down under that rival that of the UK, before more Fijians, Kiwis, South Africans, etc, etc end up playing for England or Ireland.
Maybe something like a global club competition could spark some wider interest? Some kind of competition that would allow Saracens vs Crusaders and Leinster vs Waratahs would hopefully generate bigger crowds than what there currently are. It is sad to see such low levels of support
Cos he got steam rolled by Savea? Wouldn't be the first player and certainly won't be the last to get run over by Savea. Jantjes was brilliant in setting up Dyantyi's try and he does that week after week so I do not think there is anything to worry about. Besides, he can't possibly stoop to du Preez's level...
yup agree .... there are bigger crowds for the sa schools programme of matches than there is for the super rugby ..... with regard the uk and france you cant blame the player for following salaries that over 4 - 6 years can earn them £400,000 - £1,000,000 ..... the problem is that they then qualify for england, france, ireland, scotland and wales and are hoovered up .... it is disgraceful that if you took the players of kiwi, polynesian and saffer heritage that played in the 6 nations this year and created their own team they would win the 6 nations hands down ..... I am genuinely all for expanding rugby with different cultures and experiences but World Rugby has to stop this nonsense of residency and must put a cap on the number of players coming in from overseas .... that way ALL leagues in the north and south remain strong, develop home grown talent and the international matches become a real clash of nations and different playing identities once again ..... less is more ..... rant over, sorry, just feel that the bastard money men at the top of the IRB, World Rugby and SANZAR are killing the game that we "ordinary" grass roots coaches, fans and players love.
@@arugbygentlemankirielenko535 It isn't just the World Rugby and SANZAAR, any national union can create stricter eligibility rules for their team. All unions are complicit.
@@musandlovu6986 Exactly and they have to keep up with those exhorbetent car repayments unless they just won't fit in...I mean what will the neighbours think...
@@dylancastellanos7927 true, but last year the man had a great year scored in every game yet didn't make it. Maybe the criteria for the National level is not just try scoring.
Well done Canes, and beating a good SA side in SA is really good, because them South Africans seem to be on the up. Good win and just to cement that just, only just the Kiwi's still just have the edge in the Southern Hemisphere, JUST.
I have to disagree - the Kiwis are seriously dominating. Look at the points difference between the Hurricanes and the 'Saders compared to the top Ozzie and SA teams. They're streaks ahead.
Hurricanes are good, but they never reach the Crusaders! of the Hurricanes down the Kiwis teams are beatable! The problem is the Crusaders who are "out of class" for the same Kiwis!
@@darrylroberts9384 Nice compliment, but to me SA sides are catching up. Lets be realistic here. Sure Crusaders and Canes are way ahead points wise, but that is it from NZ. All the other sides are down the bottom and bare in mind those Kiwi sides have International players in those squad, e.g. Blues, Highlanders, etc, etc. NZ cannot rely just on the 2 sides they do have up top for the All-Blacks. SA sides all of them are 30+ points so to me they have possibly a bit more strength and depth as a country than the Kiwis do at present, and again this is because we keep losing fine players, including SA to the bloody British sides. If the Southern Hemisphere can stop this rot and players leaving for Pomland, then the Southern Hemisphere will yet again dominate from 1-3 in World Rankings. Until then though, we have to endure low numbers in the stadium and a constant barrage of Pommie sides taking our best players, which really, really pisses me off how still the Kiwi's, Aussies, South Africans continue to let our good players F off up North. It is an insult mate.
@@KiwiGraggle - I agree with you on the losing of players. What Southern Hemisphere needs are sponsors who can offer players the same kind of money that the Brits and French offer.
I fear that the signs are not good for next season's migration( tò other game reserves). Each one feel the effect of his own pride and won't take the sh!t any longer.
What a joke,lol. Hes gonna be useless in the WC,Savea didnt support his body wait on any of those steals,hes gonna kak under the strict Northern Refs,they not gonna give him the leverage Peyper did
@@aggapyah5493 most of the turnovers/steals are controversial especially with the inconsistency in refereeing.But Ardie Save is one of the most in form forwards and in form All Blacks in the current Super Rugby season.
Given the erratic play by all the south african teams, one can only predict horrendous play by the springboks later in the year in Japan. Expect nothing spectacular or successful. Elton, sacked nicely just like a bag of potatoes: @03:05 . Should be turned into a .gif !!!
Elton was sacked by a world class All Black player and to be fair, if any other Lions player had been on the receiving end of that this would never have been mentioned. A few weeks ago, Kwagga was put on his arse by someone he tried to tackle and we did not ridicule him for that. While Elton certainly has some shortcomings, maybe just look at the try he set up in this video, or the try he set up for Dyantyi in Wellington last year. Like him or not, he has some good qualities..
I wouldn't say so a lot of the South African players are over sea's the likes of faf de klerk, kolbe, louw, also when they put that springbok Jersey on there'll be a different mentality
I think that it is such a pity that this new method of conferences means that the Hurricanes and Crusaders can't get to play each other in the final - I think all true rugby fans no that the real final will be the Hurricanes vs Crusaders match in the semis.
Exactly it allows weak sides to look better than they are, on the actual log the top SA side is like 5th or 6th only, there's two standout sides and we all know it.
@@denisepoo1960 NZRU had to agree to the conference system to promote competition, otherwise it would've been an all NZ final every year. Kiwi fans like myself would love that but obviously interest from SA and AUS fans would become literally zero.
Tyrone Green played brilliantly when he was on. I think the coach should have had Tyrone Green and Aphiwe Dyantyi on instead of Courtnall Skosan and Aphiwe Dyantyi. The only Lions players who actually pitched up this game were Marx,Tshithuka, Dyantyi,Green and Coetzee.
Lions deserved to lose so I'm not blaming Jaco Pyper but he's pathetic. Doesn't even deserve to ref schoolboy rugby. He made so many mistakes. I never liked him because he'll do anything not to seem baised. Great game by the Hurricanes. If anyone agrees with me about Pyper let me know, please because it'd be nice to know that I'm not the only one who thinks he's a cancer in officiating.
The Golden Lions twice defeated the Jaguars ... the jaguars beat the Hurricanes with hard work, and now are the Hurricanes the ones that beat the Lions?
Really impressed with the Jaguares. a SA side obviously wont win super rugby but I'd love it if the Jaguares could go all the way. They deserve it more than anyone just because of their progress.
Should have been at least a yellow card on the high tackle. Good job on the win Canes🍻
true

Almost every game at every venue has a non-existent crowd. People just can't be asked to go to the stadium anymore for SR.
It's like that for every team. I could see super rugby dying in a few years.
@@raypurchase1239 Yup. And for South African players, that would be a good thing.

Super rugby crowds are shocking! Where’s the support for these clubs?
At home where the view is better and the tickets are already paid for.

That's how you skin a Lion
lol
Nothing on that Perenara high tackle?
Yeah.. That shuld be atleast yellow.
nah, peyper said scored try is punishment enough. initially the arm hit tj's chin, so yellow in my book.
Don't agree. I would have given a red card and still awarded the try. That shit is fucking dangerous.
Yeah.... it's crazy.....
At the very LEAST a yellow regardless of try outcome.
I love rugby
I would like to see Ben Lam with the 14 jersey in the All Blacks
YEAH I THINK HES SOLID AS AND GREAT TOO BUT I THINK HES A BIT INCONSISTANT TO GET A JERSEY.
BigbeN is good but there are better quality wings available.
@@thehowlironwhisker2654 apart from Rieko who? I think big ben has been amazing the last two seasons

1:27 ...I feel like they could have went for lineout or scrum.
nice result, well done the Hurricanes
Why your stadium are so empty ? Where's the crowd of supporters ?
Vamos los pumas
Yesterday 14 Lions disappeared from captivity . No wonder they never turned up today.
nice!
One Lion (€£TON) dissapeared a week before already. 14 +1........
Even the trainer escaped two weeks earlier. Think the public is safe?

What about Skosan who literally shifted from Luamape?
