Hurricanes v Rebels
-
it's obvious to see why a change strip was needed. Their usual jersey would definitely have been too close to the Rebels'

Just saw these photos (from 2011) on FB. Horrible jerseys are not just a thing of recent years; what kind of an abomination are they wearing here?
It's silver! It is!
I did like those Rebels jerseys for a few years back then. Something a little different but smart.

IWL dropped after probably being best on show last week. Can't see any reference to him being injured
How good would it be if we picked IWL with Scrafton one week. We can only hope!
PUJ not even on the bench.
There's four Magpies in the team this week so either him or Flanders was going to get dropped, can't have five in the team.

PUJ should come to the Blues. IWL would be handy too.

How about we give you Holland instead? He can be the waterboy

Does that mean you want the Blues waterboy to com home as coach?

you are very generous but I think we'd prefer a waterboy from the Highlanders as their water seems to be more intoxicating...

@stargazer do you think it's a stronger or weaker team than last week?
Hilariously Rob Leota who is locking for the Rebels is exactly the same size as James Blackwell.
-
It's stronger.
Naisarani & Hosea were suspended and are back. That should help the pack. Their first choice TH is still missing though.
-
@canes4life I'd say the forward pack is stronger, but the backline is weaker. IMO To'omua is their best 10.
