    Hurricanes Hunters team to play the curtain raiser. No Riley Higgins which suggests he’s got a minor niggle as well. Thank goodness.

    You think it would get mentioned if he had a minor niggle. I hope so too, It's got me beat why he not on bench at least , I do know there were rumours of perhaps an attitude problem a couple of years back, and I hope this is not got anything to do with him missing out.

    I've had confirmation that him and Proctor sustained minor niggles this week in training and the Canes don't want to risk them for this match. If it was a final they would have been available but best to keep them on ice at this stage of the season instead of making any injuries worse. Both of them are expected to be available next week against the Drua.

    That sounds good, a relief in fact. We want both those 2 operating as good as they can for us to have a chance of finals!

    There was some footage on social media that showed Higgins and Aumua running fine as part of the non playing team during training so they can't be too bad.

    Good to back at the start of a season .
    Was hopeful Sky might have looked to improve pregame show/analysis but looks to be same old same old

    I'm neutral in this game ..... Saders seem to start poorly and lost to the landers pre-season .. so maybe the Canes will win ....

    Curious to see how long Fern favourite Blackadder lasts

    Sky Sport serving up the same crap as last year. I was hoping for improvement.

    @Canes4life I think that is a little harsh. Definitely seems to be some extra cameras at least. The analysis though, remains a below-par - but find me a pre-match coverage in any sport that doesn't largely consist of meathead ex-pros analysing with low effort.

    Sky Sport are just a tick box exercise. Instead of getting the best people for the job we are left with this lot who spend half of their time blowing smoke up each others arses. It’s cringe as. The analysis is below par. It used to be so much better but it seems to get worse every year.

    If they want to bring back the crowds and improve fan engagement they need to do better.

    JK was the only one who wasn’t afraid to say what he really thought but now he’s gone.

    Ex-players are generally awful commentators.

    What a difference it makes with an Oz ref actually reffing the crusaders.

    210 seconds into the new season and Scotty gets his first card.

    Potential serious injury to the halfback and Berry insists on playing on, why is this dickhead still reffing at this level.
