Yeah it was against the Drua wasn't it? I think Proctor needs a rest though, he's made a lot of tackles this year so we need to look after him.
-
I think Proctar must be close to getting a rest, he has been putting in big shifts. For Aumu, not sure of on full resting policy, I thought those that weren't used a lot for ABs didn't have same policy, but just something I THINK I heard, and could of got it wrong!

Hurricanes named to take on Moana Pasifika: it's never a team naming day without some odd Holland selections. Why not give Higgins some game time? So has Morgan been passed by Hohepa now? What's going on. Also, what's the point in having Savea on the bench, why not give someone like Sinkinson a crack?

Unavailable for selection: Ruben Love, Caleb Delany, Tyler Laubscher, Reed Prinsep, Peter Umaga-Jensen, Justin Sangster, TJ Perenara, Jacob Devery, Aidan Morgan.
All Black rest: Dane Coles, Tyrel Lomax, Jordie Barrett
Thanks for pointing that out. Still odd not giving Higgins gametime though, surely this is the prime opportunity with Jordie not available.
-
@Canes4life Morgan has a concussion from last week apparently.
Totally agree regarding Higgins.Interesting thought do you think Moana Pasifika could target the “old boys” on defensive? -

Again no game time for McClutchie. Mauger seems to prefer to name big midfielders in the reserves and to go without a reserve 10 on the bench, this season. While Havili can cover 10, none of the other backs or reserves play regularly at fullback. That's why it's surprising that Danny Toala isn't in the 23, who can easily shift to the back. Leuila will probably be the one to be used as 10 and/or 15 cover, but he's no specialist and not very quick either.
-
@Stargazer Lilo can play fullback
-
@ACT-Crusader Who?

@Stargazer said in Moana Pasifika v Hurricanes:
@ACT-Crusader Who?
Christian Lealiifano - Lilo for short
-
@ACT-Crusader I was talking about 10 cover: Havili can shift to 10, if needed. If it's needed, than obviously Leali'ifano won't go to fullback. Context.
