would that be a NZ rceord for the most hyphenated last names?
That's Waratahs-esque
Ha, I was writing a similar post but was going to compare it to early 2000s Brumbies

Do we have any Prinsep fans here?
It really blows my mind how for so long he's been a starter in the Canes given the other options we have. Be curious to get a fans perspective.
He kind of reminds me a (much) worse version of Reuben Thorne. Completely invisible.

I not a Prinsep fan, but you just may of defended him quite a bit by saying he reminds you of Reuben Thorne, who was supposedly invisible to people who perhaps never appreciated that not all things done on rugby field have to be starry things etc, he was a pretty good player anyway.
Actually not a bad Canes team from who is available I think.

What is the protocol when two hyphenated people get married and want to hyphenate their last names?

@Dan54 when you have 12 Carry’s over a whole tri nations for 12 metres doesn’t exactly means he’s excelling at his job does it. (Reuben Thorne FYI)
I thought he was a better 6 than many gave him credit for, he was not a great player, but he was better trhan a lot of internet warriors gave him credit for.
But anyway that was then this is now. -
Good backline but I still cringe when I see Prinsep on the team sheet. Hopefully Howden gets plenty of minutes off the pine.

Surely they have a better option than Prinsep? Solid and probably good at NPC level but seems a little lightweight in Super Rugby in both his contribution and stature/impact. Howden looks promising albeit raw. Maybe they can try and lure Plumtree?

@TheMojoman
When you are a blindside, you are not fool enough to sign for the Canes as you may know that Holland will, week after week, give Prinsep the 6 jersey. -
@TheMojoman Plumtree would be great.
Flanders & Iose if not injured would be better options too.
I'd 100% have Howden there given who's fit at the moment.
-
@Canes4life Not your fault, but certainly your problem.

Almost.
The Highlanders used six against the Blues: Manaaki Selby-Rickit, Marino Mikaele-Tu'u, Thomas Umaga-Jensen, Liam Coombes-Fabling, Connor Garden-Bachop and Daniel Lienert-Brown.

I liked the look of Howden for Manawatu last year, and he seems like he still going alright next level up with admittedly only limited minutes so far.
