@Hooroo Three of our regular loose forwards are out!
Not easy going into a match without the likes of Jones, Brooke and Blowers 😉

@Canes4life the Smith/Laumape/Aso combo looked good last week. Probably the most promising on both sides of the ball.

@canefan yeah Smith looked far more assured against the Highlanders. I don't know where Holland's head's at, there is absolutely no consistency in selection apart from Blackwell & Prinsep.
I didn't think Smith looked far more assured. JGB has been playing well enough. One area where JGB is better is his in field kicking. He also has more bulk when needed. Maybe that's the Canes game plan. To try and smash though the other team. So Aso goes. Replaced by a less skilled but bulkier player.
Genius game plan against the Blues.

To be fair the combination the previous week (starting this week) did well enough as well. I would certainly start Aso but I'll see how it goes

@No-Quarter I actually have it the other way around. Our bench looks better than the Blues and I expect us to pull away in the last 20.It could really go either way though, really depends on which team decides to turn up on the day.
Hopefully you're right this time

I have a feeling the Canes may get the job done in this game,Canes to sneak the win by 2 points.
Blues look to have the better tight fives and the fatbastards here always tell us that they decide who wins the game.
However Canes have a stronger bench and games get decided in the last 20.
Therefore I don’t have a clue. -

Therefore I don’t have a clue.Shit, and here's me thinking that the points scored in the first 60 went a long way to deciding who wins too :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

No, no - you're thinking of the 5 minutes each side of half-time.

When you see the highlights package of reiko at 13 , you realise how dangerous he looks with ball in hand, be interesting to see how he looks there at the higher level

Thought he was still playing league ?
