Tasman v Wellington

@Chris

Very impressive the one time I saw him play. Shame he's missing the npc

[Bovidae]

Hunt was interviewed at HT in the SI 1st XV final. I wasn't listening close enough to know if he was asked about his return.

I watched that one game he played as well.
He was very good.

@Chris yeah he's a talent. The Canes have a wealth of young good loosies in and around the squad atm. Take your pick out of TK Howden, Devan Flanders, Caleb Delany, Tyler Laubscher, Brayden Iose, Peter Lakai, and there's also Cooper Flanders on the radar.

The painful thing is we keep persisting with guys like Prinsep and Kirifi who are too shit/small for Super Rugby.

That’s a talented bunch for sure.
Peter Laki I wonder is he gets picked up by another franchise for 2023.
I don’t see Room for him at the Canes next year with that group you mentioned.

[Canes4life]

@Chris I think they will sign him as he can play all three loose forward positions and at only 19 he looks like a unit. Prinsep and Kirifi can F off.

I thought Prinsep and Kirifi are signed for next year.

[Bones]

Shit.

Not big, strong, fast, Fetuli Paea.

[Canes4life]

@Chris probably, Prinsep can’t even make the Canterbury loose forward trio ffs. Such a dud.

[Stargazer]

@Canes4life Prinsep is injured.

Yep Hamstring back this week or next.

Still a dud and shouldn’t be a Super Rugby starter.

Might help explain why Canterbury have been going a bit better this season.

[Chris B.]

Home game vs Wellington.

A good test of whether it's just a rebuilding season or a potential crisis.

We can't be losing this!

[Stargazer]

Kirifi ruled out. Sione Halahilo replacing him.

[mikey07]

How crap is our attack far to slow with stupid passes…oh and a complimentary does the refs arm only go one way? Ta$man are getting up awfully quick

[Stargazer]

Ta$man unlucky to lose both starting locks within the first ten minutes, including their captain.

Can't think of a better night for Fetuli to start throwing his size, strength and speed around!

[mikey07]

@Stargazer Might give that midget Blackwell a chance now.

[Duluth]

Of course Hames thought that was backwards out of the hand
