Unavailable due to All Blacks rest week: Ardie Savea, Jordie BarrettI wonder what's happened with Scott Scrafton, he seems to have gone out of favour. Maybe he's leaving at the end of the year?
Also, Riley Higgins (if he gets on) is making his Super debut at 19. He surely must be one of the youngest in recent history.

@Canes4life Or Covid related, something they'll never publish. Pro athletes can be affected by long-Covid, too, especially if they start training too soon.
Although, it would be typical Canes to drop a player as soon as it's clear that he won't re-sign/be re-signed, no matter how useful that player could be.

-
Hope Franks & Coles can get through 20-30 minutes off the bench without injury... if they can stay fit going into the latter part of the comp it will be a big plus for the Canes.
Be interesting to see how Laubscher goes at 8.

@Stargazer I feel $5 to win and $7 for 1 - 12 for Drua is generous

Canes need to change the angle of attack one in a while...
Good D from Drura too.

High tackle missed there was it?

@Mattasaurus Penalty given.
