Yep, IPL, then Cricket World Cup, then NPC, then All Blacks, then cricket.
Some NRL and V8 Supercars in the mix too, but I don't think I've forgotten much else...

Salesi Rayasi
Be interesting to see how many 2nd half tries he scores. Canes will probably have gone off the boil after racking up a huge lead.
-
Omg - we are so confident we are starting Wes Goosen... why do I feel this will backfire??
Can't fault his effort but just gets rag-dolled too much for my liking.
-
Blackwell is still there. WTF
Laumape will be even more amped up for his 50th.

@Tim said in Chiefs v Hurricanes:
@Nepia Either way, I really can't see them winning a game this season, outside of their home fixture against the Reds in May.
Regardless of the Chiefs winning a game or not it's bollocks to imply Retallick isn't interested, he's actually been playing ok despite how shit the team is.
But I agree with TR, lets fake injury him midway through the competition and he can have some games for the Magpies to get up to match fitness. Perfect.

Bahahaha nice try, but check out your backline, so much talent you move Superstar Jordie Barrett to the wing.

Mate, we are flattering to deceive, our forwards are shiiiiittt

@Nepia He really doesn't look like he's straining himself. Four rounds in and it's been all decidedly sub-par performances. I'd say his mind is on the World Cup and the series of injuries he picked up last year.
He's a much better player than Scott Barrett, but that guy is putting in 10 times the effort.
-
@canefan edit: Tight five is shite apart from Coles.
-
Actually i feel a liiiittle better
Ben May?
Fifita at lock?
Prinsep?
Savea at 8? -

Yup. So pretty standard canes squad really
-
@Tim reckon some of the top guys will only really start showing consistent form in a couple of months as they start thier climb to peak performance, whereas a guy like SB is in theory, trying to oust BBBR or SW for a start come RWC...just chuck him at 6 FFS.

One guy is playing in the top performing team in the competition and the other is playing in the worst - Retallick is putting in the effort but it's basically pushing shit up hill. (I hope Barrett's effort isn't 10 times better than BBBR, he's only made 1 extra tackle and less tackle busts

Which may be true, but currently, scrum aside, the Chiefs backs and forwards are shit.

I don't recall them being that bad last year. I haven't kept up with who's in the squad. What is going on?
