9 Finlay Christie
10 Harry Plummer
11 Caleb Clarke
12 Bryce Heem
13 Rieko Ioane
14 Mark Telea
15 Zarn SullivanBasedon form I'd swap the bench 9, move Plummer to 12. Heem is playing well, but the benefit is gained in the movement of Perofeta (even without a lot of game time) into 10.
-
Nock played well last week, but Christie has better form over a larger number of games. Especially on defence and running. Also, Nock's main weakness was nullified by asking him not to kick. With Plummer at 10, Christie will need to kick more.
And rushing Perofeta back after injury is not smart, that said I expect to see him early in the second half.

The two best 10s are on the bench.
I'd like to see Zarn Sullivan at 10. He has a higher ceiling than Perofeta IMO.

Zarn has yet to start a first class game at 10. Would rather not throw him into 10 for such a big game when Perofeta is in the 23.

Boy I salivating for this game!! Canes will miss Flanders but it is what it is. Really happy also to see both Cameron back and Proctor is ok and starting.
And fot my tipping, as I well down anyway, and I decided if I did a picking comp I will alswys make sure I do it. I just going full heart from now on so will be Canes by over 9!!! -
@Dan54 Caleb Delany will slot in nicely at 6, I actually think he's probably more suited to 6 than Flanders but because Ardie's at 8 that's where Flanders has ended up. I'm hoping next year we get to see Delany at 6, and Flanders at 8 more often.

Super Rugby posted this yesterday, what a game it was.

@Canes4life RTS' rugby career peaked at half-time in that game.

Yep he was unfortunate with timing and everything wasn't he? Not knocking him, as I never saw him play league, but he certainly never quite transferred to rugby as maybe he hoped. I give him credit for having a crack anyway.

Damn, that's cold from the Blues social media dude.
COVID really stuffed his chances to learn
I highly doubt 1 npc season would make much difference. He played npc last year.

OK, Covid and injuries. He didn't have the shot he could have.
right call to go back to league, but he could have had better luck

Looks like it could be wet weather tonight.
Showers at worst I reckon. Had to swap my usual yellow umbrella😀
-
Hopefully the rain stays away until late in the game. I want to see a try fest.

2 Players to watch for me are Roigard who has been in great form, also Looking forward to seeing Heem at 12.. he was bloody awesome at 13 last week.
Enough current ABs out there with positions somewhat open that this should be an excellent contest.

Collar bone in first contact maybe>?

@Nepia said in Blues v Hurricanes:
Advantage is nuts these days, that looked to be an over 20m attack easily. Am I misremembering it?
Cue @antipodean ripping into Gus Gardner

Morgan's absolute trash !

Bring on Brett Cameron now.
Morgan is rubbish.
