Fifita looks like he’s been dropped

Look that way. The coaches love Prinsep so was always going to come back as a starter but he could ahve started at lock or been in the reserves

Surprised that Flander doesn't get another start

edit re stuff

Vaea Fifita will also miss Sunday’s game due to concussion.

Two loosehead props on the bench for the Canes.

But isn't Tevita seen as a tighthead now. With Rakete-stones as the other LH option

Not a possibility given IWL has taken the token HB allocation in the starting lineup!

Not sure. I've only seen him at loosehead.

His brother plays tighthead.

Don't agree with that change to the backrow at all.
Flanders had a much better game than Kirifi, and Savea is better at 7 than at 8. Prinsep ...

They should have given Toala that 22 jersey.

Kirifi was pretty bad last week, not sure that's a great move to reward dumb penalties.

[Tim]

@winger Yeah, Tevita Mafileo specialised as a tighthead, IIRC.

Hurricanes Hunters beat Crusader Knights 19-12 to kick off the afternoon of footy.

[Yeetyaah]

Up the Canes.

[Stockcar86]

Anyone just see the TAB guy on Sky Sport? Classic hostage blinking morse code messages asking for help

[Yeetyaah]

You'd think the Canes would wash their jerseys before they took the field.

[gt12]

Who’s the HB for Saders?

[Yeetyaah]

Good opening passage.

[Canes4life]

@yeetyaah great start to the game.

[Canes4life]

@gt12 Drummond?

[Yeetyaah]

No try

[Gunner]

Wowee, he looked home for all money.

Great desperation from the cover defence.

[Canes4life]

@gunner why did he hesitate. Just pin your ears back.

[Yeetyaah]

Great defence. JGB should have just gunned it. Dunno why he ran towards the touch line at the last second.

[akan004]

Only Bachop could have screwed that up.

Not a fan of the goal line dropout.
