Hurricanes v Crusaders

@Winger said in Hurricanes v Crusaders:
And are you basing Prinsep is better than Evans on just one game.
No, not at all. I even mentioned you could select Evans on historical grounds. Evans was poor last week.. maybe he really enjoyed the break? I don't think the Canes can have the luxury of ignoring that sort of form

The Evans shouldn't be in the team full-stop. But there are other options. Like Flanders. And IWL (assume hes not injured). Two young players that could do with game experience (Canes won't win it so why not develop young players)

I think thats a better argument
If things don't turn around quickly they probably have no choice

Crusaders are usually slow starters.

How many Hurricanes would you pick in a combined team?

I wasn't really serious as it was ACT but hey, where's Lomax? Ingrate.

@Winger delete Canes, replace with Blues, it's pretty familiar
Welcome to our world of the last few years. It sucks. No-one has a monopoly on competence, we should expect every franchise to be well run and effective (noting you won't always win)Thank God the Blues have finally sorted things out. It seems to have happened after Board and management changes. And that's where it needs to start with the Canes.
Otherwise we will be lucky to hold onto Jordie. Or a great first 5.
You guys have been the production line of 10s.

23 Kobus Van WykFuck. Going to pick any forwards? Lightweight.
Is there s published injury list? IWL? Flanders?

@Canes4life said in Hurricanes v Crusaders:
@Duluth yes he was, Prinsep got smoked every time he ran it forward.
The coaches seem happy with plodder forwards but it won't win us games.
Looks to me he hasn't gone for plodders he's gone for mobility. Not sure you want to sacrifice a strong forward pack against the Evil Empire. Basically conceded the forward battle to contest it wider.

@booboo said in Hurricanes v Crusaders:

No, the Canes never seem to publish an injury list, unfortunately. And since Hamish Bidwell left stuff and doesn't report on the Canes anymore, we don't get the info via the media anymore, either. I'm not a fan of Bidwell as a journo, but amidst the rubbish, he managed to include some useful facts.
