Hurricanes 2022

Keep your grubby mitts off him.
Why don't you just keen developing Rueben Love.
I'd say if he goes anywhere it will be to Moana Pasifika.
-
@southernmann The Canes have lost four players to the Blues alone in the last few years so I'm happy for the Canes to snap up anyone from anywhere.
The Highlanders obviously aren't willing to play him at 10 so if there is an opportunity at the Canes why wouldn't he take it?
Ruben Love could be the perfect bench option covering 10/15 until he develops further.
-
We do play him at 10. Just not every game.
Just like the Hurricanes play Umaga-Jensen at 13, just not every game. Just like how you play Aumua at hooker, just not starting every game.
I guess because they don't start they should go elsewhere too?
-
@southernmann it's relative to the person I guess, if PUJ decided to move elsewhere I wouldn't blame him, I would blame Holland for not selecting him on a regular and ultimately stunting his development. If Ioane decides to move to the Canes because he feels he has more opportunity to nail down regular minutes, then so be it. On the other hand if Ioane is happy to slot in anywhere and remain at the Highlanders then that's fair enough to.
-
@southernmann But if the player wants to play in his favoured position but continually plays elsewhere how could you blame him for moving somewhere else where he could get regular game in his desired position.

According to James Marshall's 'What a Lad' podcast, Liam Mitchell won't be at the Hurricanes next year.

I'm not sure who's telling the truth on JB's stats - Wellington or the Canes.
-
@canes4life Haha, no way is he 197cm! Not 122kg either.

Maybe they measured him as being 14cm taller than Cory Jane. That'd make him 197cm right...
-
@stargazer looking at the guy in real life he looks about 1.94 and 112kg.
-
197 if they make 4cm length sprigs maybe

Any pictures of him upside down so we can confirm this?

huge difference to https://www.hurricanes.co.nz/squad/player/james-blackwell/
Height 190
Weight 107
Maybe he has an evil, shorter, twin? Or grows and shrinks on a regular basis? -
Is PUJ hinting at something with this post? Hopefully it’s more than just a Wainui reunion.

A Josh Ioane for Peter Umaga-Jensen trade?

Yeah. Nah
Have you gone full Canes4life and would prefer to stick with teenage Wellingtonians and fat bum Bachop at 10?
It's not like Umaga-Jensen gets a run for the Canes.

I never like JGB. PUJ on the other hand is a very good player and if Holland was a half decent coach he would start him regularly

He's not.
