Vince Aso (13) and the up and coming Riley Higgins (12) making club rugby look fairly easy yesterday:
That was abysmal by the red 15 near the start

That's funny. Good speed and determination by PUJ but that ball carrier must be waking up at night thinking 'why didn't I dive?'

They picked Ngani Laumape for the Hurricanes' player episode of 'All Access'.
The full episode can be found on Sky Go and Sky sport Now: -
@stargazer All backs so far, disappointing!
-
Three great weeks past for the Hurricanes.
Two, possibly three, massive weeks ahead for the blokes in yellow and black.
Given their squads are both rammed to the brim with internationals the Blues and the Crusaders must be favourite for the final.
But I would love it if we can be party poopers. Our destiny is our own hands. Definitely dark horses for the competition.

How can letting the hapless Waratahs in for the best part of fifty pointy be classified as part of great week?
Well it's better than loosing by that

Bonus point win. Happy dayz.

@sparky if we can field all of Evans, Savea, Coles, Barrett, Lomax and Perenara mixed in with the youthful exuberance of Numia, Flanders, Love, PUJ, IWL, Rayasi and Aumua the Canes easily have the firepower to win this comp.
I feel a lack of experience in this side was their downfall in SRA but we are now getting that experience back in spades so hopefully that puts us in a good position going into the latter stages of this competition.
Being the dark horses will suit us.
-
@canes4life You have made the major miscalculation of leaving out R. Prinsep so it will never happen. J. Blackwell will obviously partner IWL in the middle row and B. Proctor will shunt PUJ into the 12 jersey. This still leaves the other wing position up for grabs but then you would not be surprised to see R. Love slotted in there to free up the first five spot for the teachers pet JGB!
-
@higgins yeah well it’s obviously up to the coach and selections but there is enough talent in this squad to get the job done. Whether Holland decides to use it is another question.
Lol JGB is gone for the year isn’t he?
-
@canes4life As a HB supporter I desperately hope he will be back to hinder the Wgtn Lions!
-
@higgins don’t think he will be. It’s Morgan and Love’s time to shine. 😀
-
@canes4life Maybe not as there is an good list of other young superstar hotshots brought in from outside Wellington that have not "made it".
-
@higgins you could argue they’ve both made it, atleast at Super level as they’ve both secured contracts - something that a certain HB fly half has failed to do.
I’ve got close sources that are mates with Perenara who thinks Love will definitely be an All Black. He’s certainly shown he can command a backline, something that McClutchie needs to show more of before taking that next step.
Perfect opportunity for him to do just that for Hawkes Bay this year.
-
@canes4life Jeez you talk some absolute bullocks when you’re on the troll. When has Love shown he can command a backline in his short first class career? He’s the most babysat 10 ever to enter Super rugby. I’m no fan big of Jordie but he does all the commanding in the Canes.
