    @foobanz I think his W/L record is nearly under 50%. If this was any other respectable sports league in the world he would have faced the chop ages ago.

    Sorry for the spam - but I wish we had an NZ rugby media that would put these questions to the coaches.

    NZ sports journalism is far too buddy buddy. It's a shame it's fallen down like it has.

    @canes4life gee, that is bad. I think in the Boyd era we had the highest winning percentage (even if only 1 title - should have been 2 haha).

    I wonder if Boyd would ever come back to the Canes.

    It looks like Ofa is going to be used as a LH with Karl unavailable.

    @foobanz you're not wrong. The Hurricanes as an organisation seem to be floating along without any real consequence. Win, lose or draw no one in the media seems to care anymore which is a sad state. As I've said previously this organisation needs a complete cleanout.

    When was the last time we heard from the G.M?

    What I don't get is that if Holland wanted to play Savea in the midfield he should have done it in pre-season.

    What the f#ck is the point of pre-season, just a waste of time if the team structure doesn't resemble what's going to happen during the season proper.

    Well said. It just shows they don't have any idea.

    Making drastic changes to your team after week 1 means whatever plan you have you've already ditched. Are we not thinking ahead? Did they not trust their plan for the season?

    It's stranger than that. The Canes backline last week looked very sharp at times. Surely that means that you then work on building that to be most of the time/all of the time rather than change it out.
    As Isaid I amlooking forward to seeing Jules at 12 but I am alsonot sure it is needed. Or at least have PUJ at 13

    Under the roof Flanders, Iose, Love and PUJ could cause real havoc off the bench.

    Plumtree would’ve been a better bench option. Maybe he’s injured too?

    11-15 for the Blues is something else. Under the roof they will be very hard to contain.

    If I were PUJ, I'd be looking to move to the Landers.

    12 TUJ 13 PUJ would be very good.

    I am glad I am not a Canes fan,Would be pulling my hair out every time a team is selected.
    No consistency in selection at all,How is the team supposed to retain rhythm in their defence and attack with someone different next to you every week.

    Although I like Savea at 12 that maybe a master stroke if PUJ was at centre.

    @arhs lol yea. I can see the Canes winning since the Blues will be under cooked. Plus missing 3 of their best in Dalton, Akira & Beauden.

    How on earth can the Canes go two weeks in a professional competition and only play one actual real lock?

    @nepia more than two weeks... Holland's been doing it since the start of 2020.

    Akira could be out of action for a while.

    He's indicated he has a lisfranc foot injury.

    That could be up to 3 months out.Depending on wether it is a break or a tear.
