@Bovidae those stats don't scream "power winger" unless you're playing in the 80s.
Power in the sense that he runs hard, then uses late footwork to weaken the tackle and busts through.
We have rather different definitions of power winger! Doesn't DMac do the same?

@Bovidae glad to hear that one. If we keep all of our locks we probably have the best depth out of any super team.
Hurricane's fans ought to be fuming over their blatant stockpiling of talented second-rowers: Rettalick, Vaa'i, McWhannell, Ah Kuoi, Lord, (& Samipeni Finau covers lock adequately as well).

All too tall for the Canes recruiters

Sometimes it is hard to remember just how young some players are and how to judge their performances against their experience.
ENS has been around long enough that we expect to see reasonably mature performances but he is only really just clocking up enough experience to work out his own game at top levels (eg the stepping and jinking gets shut down quickly against a decent defence)
He was showing some very good signs in NPC until injury and it was fair to say that losing him was a very big loss.
With Stevenson finally getting rid of his brain explosions and losing the 'WTF' moments there may be a good back three forming using resources that we already have. -

I assume the squads could be named next week, after the NPC finishes and before the focus is on the AB tour.
As yet, no direct replacements for Lowe and Tiatia have been announced, despite the rumours.
Kini Naholo is at the chiefs for 2023.
