    Canes selections really are something else.

    Fix one problem, create another

    Bringing in IWL. Awesome.

    Wait - it's for Scrafton?? Sigh

    If I had a billion bucks I'd buy a French club, and sign Prinsep, Proctor and Blackwell on 2 million dollar contracts

    Yay Blackwell starting! He deserves a chance or 50.
    Why have the selected the wings around the wrong way?

    @duluth said in Hurricanes v Crusaders:

    Will Jordan, Sevu Reece, Jack Goodhue, David Havili, George Bridge, Richie Mo’unga, Bryn Hall

    That is some backline.

    and yet, it's the fatties who win it for them.

    I guess 16,18 & 20 have all been injured

    And Mafileo covers loosehead

    Everyone knows my views on Blackwell. But regardless this looks the best side for some time. Unsure if Rayasi was available or not. But Goosen might be seen as a better defender. And Rakete-Stones might if available might be unhappy. And hopefully some of the other players (like Toala) get a run in the Aussie games

    Wheres Le'aupepe. Is he not considered good enough. Or injured again this year?

    Le'aupepe announced on Insta he's retiring on medical advice

    A loss for the Canes for sure - however given our brainless lock selections I'm not sure they would have picked him anyway

    Two Magpies in the starting lineup!!! Holland obviously submitted the team sheets before realising he’d gone over the quota.

    @Stargazer Any idea what’s going on with Evans? Injured?

    @foobanz good to know, poor from the Canes for not mentioning it. Shouldn't they have brought in a replacement then considering he was named in the initial squad?

    Wonder if Parsons or Cridge will get a look in now?

    Thanks for this. I wonder if it was a concussion issue.

    @nepia don't be silly, they are too tall. Seriously wouldn't mind seeing Parsons get a trot.

    From a Crusaders view point I am happy to see no Rayasi in there he has created opportunities every game he has played.Would much rather defend against Goosen than Rayasi.

    @canes4life I'm sure they will bring in Caleb Delaney instead.

    Rayasi is available he was running around no problem in the videos on Instagram...knowing Holland probably thinks he’s tired and needs a rest 🙄

    @foobanz That's sad news. I hope his surgery goes well and wish him all the best for life after his (too) short rugby career.

    quote from Holland
    "In the backs, Salesi Rayasi was dropped from the 23 for what Holland described as his work off the ball in Auckland"
