@duluth I think we win those games cause we fortunately do have some killer players, none more so than Ardie.
Everything was roses after we beat the Blues, but in reality, the Blues were very tired and lost focus, and PUJ, Iose, Flanders, Sullivan & Ardie type players made the most of it. We shouldn't be in those positions to begin with.

Any ideas how to fix the Canes?
Total spring clean.
Start with Darren Larsen at development level. That's where it already goes wrong (still have to wait and see how the regional volunteers are going to influence development/selection). He's been there for ages and ages.
Loosen the relationship with the Wellington Rugby Union, who owns a large share in the franchise. It's having too much influence on appointments, signings and selections at all levels. All the favouritism has to go (regional and club).
Establish a second base for the academy in Napier (like the Crusaders have done in Nelson).
For every position, it has to be the best person for the role; not the mate that's already in the system or in the region.

Jordie Barrett: 'I think 12 is the most comfortable position for me'
Jordie Barrett says he feels most comfortable playing at second-five, the position he will play in against the Chiefs this weekend.
-
@machpants my question is, why wait until now? Why play 4 different players at 12 before getting to Jordie.
I’m a big fan of this move but unfortunately Barrett has Garden-Bachop on the inside and Proctor on the outside so he’s surrounded by crap. Hope they don’t make him look bad.
-
@canes4life definitely will hurt his chances JGB won’t run with the ball and the “love child” will just run straight to the line and not pass…

He only has to run hard at Tupea and he is miles over the advantage line.I reckon he will have a big 80 min.
-
@canes4life yea that's the problem.
We should build some combos, ie Love, PUJ, Sullivan
Or Love, Jordie & PUJ
But next week we'll probably put Savea at 12 knowing how Hollands selects the team.
-
@canes4life spot on there. Maybe Goosen for Rayasi, but else good
-
@arhs the sad thing is we will never see our best team on the park with this cockroach in charge.

I'm going tomorrow. Think I might watch from end on to see how the running lines go.

@foobanz Wayne Smith is back in the coaching circles, currently working with the Black Ferns, maybe that'll re-ignite a passion and he will want a fulltime gig...
