Can you imagine the yelling and screaming if the Yellows were forced to play R. Prinsep in compensation should Mr. Howden be selected to play for the Hurricanes.

And here it is:
Unbelievable, the Plodder is starting at 6 again - Perenara was awful last week, he was stuffing around looking at the ball at the base of the rucks instead of trying to fire the it out as quick as possible... Proctor shouldn't be at 13, O'Sullivan should have his spot{our best midfield combo would have to be Umaga-Jensen/O'Sulivan} & prefer J.Barret at 15, also J.Savea has a really poor work rate, amazing Rayasi isn't playing in his position.
Love is a better 10 than fullback.
Think someone on TSF said Holland might be signing up with a team in the UK, certainly hope that is the case.Jason Holland's obviously been to the Ian Foster school of backs selections being as erratic & inconsistent as possible. Holland making it pretty hard for the Hurricanes backline to develop cohesion.
Yeah, making too many changes every game & playing players out of position makes it very difficult to get good cohesion going.

Really rate Walker-Leawere, he'll add some real grunt to our scrum when he returns.

Has to win at selection roulette first.

Yeah, pretty difficult for any of the players to nail down a spot with all this musical chairs stuff going on... Perenara needs a big game, has to show much more urgency than that pathetic so called effort of his last week.

Lol poor PUJ is on the bench for Wainui tomorrow. So he's obviously fit.
From what I can remember, PUJ been involved in most of our tries when he's on the field this season.
I've watched the Canes since 97, and have put up with some stupid selections, but the treatment of PUJ is crazy. I really feel for him.
He's consistently good whenever he plays. Am I missing something?
Not complaining he’s on the bench we need his experience against Poneke, but of course I’d rather he start for the Canes.
