    It won't escape Hawke’s Bay’s Hurricanes fans that of those four Magpies, only one is starting. And that they give a journeyman like Kobus van Wyk a starting spot, while Danny Toala has to play with the U20s. Why isn't IWL starting? This game would have been good to give Flanders his first start, too. And they could have started Rakete-Stones instead of Numia.

    On the plus side, in Ben May, Fletcher Smith, Tyrel Lomax and James Marshall, Hawkes Bay fans will get to watch four of the Mako diaspora! 🙂 @Nepia

    Maybe IWL is being rested or maybe he was dropped for his shit defensive performance against the Sharks. He missed a ridiculous amount of tackles.

    The backs look a lot weaker than last match. Fletcher Smith needs to either step up. or be pushed aside. As he's been bordering on utter rubbish whenever he's started at first.

    Unsure why IWL is not starting (esp as hes plays for HB). But the coaches for reasons that I can't understand rate Blackwell. YeT the team went very well last week without him

    But good to see Numia starting. A good performance and Canes are looking well enough served at LH prop.

    With JGB out for awhile there is not really any options for 1st5
    And I am just hoping they are managing IWL workload, as he has played a lot of minutes so far, he provides a lot of grunt, we know Blackwell will try hard and be average.

    South African winger, Kobus Van Wyk, will get to show his raw pace to a kiwi crowd, being named in the starting line-up on the right wing.

    🤮

    Sadly I can only like your post once instead of the 100 times it deserves.

    Sadly they get to watch that useless hua flop around on a yearly basis. I'm sure they'll enjoy seeing the Wellingtonian-Aussie running around. Not sure Smith would get a great reception in HB. 🙂

    Yeah - in all fairness, Tyrel is the only one still on the books.

    The others have been sadly weakened by their absence from the Motherland! 🙂

    Hurricanes U20 leading Blues U20 15-12 at halftime, 2 tries each.

    Ref is Rebecca Mahoney.

    Some tall timber in the Canes pack - Hugo Plummet, Liam Mitchell, Ofa Tautevalu.

    Hurricanes tall or actual tall?

    I reckon they are the three tallest on the field.

    24-15 to the Blues who have just received a penalty try.

    Hurricanes defence exposed with a simple inside pass. Lack of concentration/effort

    Two big defensive errors from the Canes: first one from Fifita and Riccitelli; second from Scrafton and Blackwell. This one leading to the SW try.

    @Canes4life My bad. Shouldn't listen to the commentators. Fifita and someone else then.

    We can’t have Scrafton and Blackwell together. They are useless on the carry, exactly why IWL should be our first choice lock.

    Easy finish from van Wyk. Aso and Laumape are looking great.
