Hurricanes v Crusaders

@chris this is the Canes coaching mindset problem in a nutshell IMHO
Rayasi is dangerous, he's hard to defend. He can score tries, and create tries
We aren't go to win if we don't have players like this
That should overshadow any perceived work rate issue, which a good coach would be able to solve.
to be honest I haven't noticed this with Rayasi. Rayasi is not why we're losing and for Holland to mention this publicly is incredibly disappointing
He can't see problems which 99% of fans point out here and on Facebook each week

Yeah totally agree. the Canes have always been hard to beat because of their X factor players as they are unpredictable. It seems now these coaches are dampening the X factor down for journeyman.

@foobanz yeah to publicly criticize him is well out of order, especially for someone that isn't exactly doing a good job in his own role.
Get your head out of your arse Jason Holland and start selecting the team on ability instead of players that you have a love affair with. The selections are beyond a joke, the guy has a piss poor winning record and if this was any other competition he would have been booted by now, let alone warrenting a contract extension.

On the other hand at least hes telling the fans whats going on. I want more of this. I don't agree but we know Holland is a defence first, high work rate man. As does Rayasi so he can now plan accordingly
The main issue is his defence first approach isn't really working too well this year

thats where it started with Mr Hammet and has carried on with these coaches.His influence must still be immense at the Canes

'His work rate off the ball' ?!?!?
Has the coach watched Julian? He does nothing

Doesn’t look like it he’s blinded I think

Holland commented about Rayasi's workrate off the ball earlier in the season so this isn't new. I do think it is a big work-on for him. I'd still select Rayasi over Savea though!
It was only one game, but quite a big one - in the NPC Final I (and plenty of the media) expected Rayasi would be a major factor in killing off Ta$man.
In the event, he was largely anonymous.

I'm really hoping for some sort of bounce back from the Crusaders after last week's debacle, and a vastly improved performance. Not only were they tentative defensively and at the breakdown, but their error rate was ridiculously high. They never got into the match. I'm interested to see how Whetukamokamo Douglas goes at 6, he's had limited opportunities this season. Also looking forward to seeing how Jager goes starting and how our back three of Jordan, Reece and Bridge combine together as a unit.
