Lions debut at 38?

@Canes4life Very surprised the Lions did’nt look at Wairarapa Bush hooker Bruce Kauika Peterson who has been a stand out in heartland rugby this year
also lets not forget hes played 2 season with Northland and has a handful of games for Wellington
Its a great storyline for Hika Elliot but i personally think it would have been an even better storyline for a heartland team thats part of the Canes franchise. -

Or if the NPC was a rep competition they could pick the next best hooker out of Wellington club rugby
Pretty sure most of them are unavilable. O'Reilly, Poasa, Aumua (with ABs), Press, Tuiloma and Gaulalofa are all injured.

yet another piece of evidence to show how our structure makes no sense

This explains what happened:
I was already cheering for the Bay, now I want them to win even more.

I always liked Hika Elliot and thought that he was another one who was treated rottenly by the All Blacks. Anyway, welcome to the Lions!
Why, because Mealamu and Hore were better players than him? And Henry and co thought Flynn was a better thrower?
On par with AdM and both got about the same opportunity given who were ahead of them.

A grey day here today but no rain yet. It’s meant to hit around the afternoon so here’s hoping it comes in after the final whistle.

@Canes4life who do you think will adapt better to the conditions if the bad weather rolls in ?
