    I find it odd that PUJ can't even make the 23

    Yeah, that's a weird one.

    @tim No R. Prinsep, what's going on here? Don't know whether to Irish Jig in jubilation at that or to start sulking with the almost certain knowledge that the 'Canes cannot possibly win without his alleged invaluable leadership.

    @higgins Prinsep isn't the issue for me, it's Blackwell. If Holland wants to muscle up against the Brumbies he's not going to do that with Blackwell, infact the best defensive player against lineouts is IWL and he's on the bench, makes no sense at all.

    @canes4life Sense and J. Holland do not go together in the same sentence, unless the "sense" word is prefixed with "non".

    @higgins

    From the article @Tim posted:

    Flanker Reed Prinsep, last week’s skipper who’s played the most minutes along with Barrett, gets the week off as an expectant father, as Devan Flanders shifts to No 6 and Gareth Evans to the bench.

    @stargazer Wonder if that is a polite way to say he has been dropped?!

    From the same article:

    Barrett makes his 12th start from as many matches in 2021, the only Hurricane to run on every time.

    You'd think they have to rest Jordie at some point, but the only round robin game left is next week's against the Reds and that could be tricky. If you look at the games in which the Highlanders are resting Aaron Smith (against the Tahs) and the Crusaders Mo'unga (against the Force), the Canes have not done their player management well.

    @stargazer They have player managed a few of their players rather well, keeping them nice and fresh for the NPC and Ranfurly Shield ddefenses in particular!

    @stargazer I doubt they will rest Jordie now. I'm not too worried, he seems to be the sort of player that can handle a massive workload.

    @canes4life It may reduce his chances of playing in the first ABs test, though, because there's a good chance the Super T-T final will be between the Blues and Hurricanes.

    I'll at least wait for the Brumbies match

    Canes have the top 2 Aussie teams to go. No guarantees

    @canefan And their Aussie opponents have the NZ wooden spoon winner.

    I'd like to think a professional rugby player, especially a back, can handle a handful of games on the trot.

    Lomax will be the most important player on the field IMO.

    So, for Stuff, "heavy artillery" means replacing IWL by Blackwell ...

    Indeed.

    Actually in the article they capitalize the "Big Four" but they're referring to Ardie (fair), Coles (hmm), J Savea (haha) and Love (lmao).

    If anyone happens to have a working non-legal stream, I’d appreciate a DM.
