Hurricanes vs Moana Pasifika

[African Monkey]

@Bovidae Havili is the best we can probably manage there. He's journeyman personified, but we don't have much out there.

So good. Who chose the colour though? Green over black all day.

You look at how quickly IAR emerged for the Drua, if only something similar could happen for Moana.

It would be great to see a guy like Mo'unga return and play for them, or even someone like David Havili.

We could have done with that BP. Should have put a better team out to build a lead before flooding the subs on

[Canes4life]

@canefan just hope not getting the bonus point doesn’t cost us for a home semi spot. Brumbies have an easy run home and could pip us if we don’t beat the Chiefs.

No choice but to bring all the big guns against the Chiefs

As I said at the start of the thread, much more of a B team than I thought, especially after losing last week. Same shit this week, can't receive a kick off and poor kicking cost us the game last week and the bonus this one

Ardie might join his brother. If NZR agree to this and still being eligible for the All Blacks. Get Richie and Ardie and 2 or three more and what a difference it would make

His son said Jordie Barrett was his favourite player. This section could have been corny but was funny

[gt12]

That will serve me right for not looking at the team sheets before tipping.

[sparky]

Another one!

Atrocious, Jordie never turned out in the green and gold.

Canes suffering a bit from believing their own press?

Good enough to play the B team?*
19 very easy points and ease off.

• • which they were to be fair.

[foobaNZ]

@booboo I don't mind the selection, I imagine it's top team from here but it made sense to give some of the big guns a week off. 5 big games (hopefully!) in a row now.

Maybe a tweak or 2 but nothing major the next couple of weeks.

Certainly our worst game of the season. Hopefully we learn from the last couple of weeks, particularly on kick receipt, and get back into form again.

[Canes4life]

@booboo why are they believing their own press? They’ve had a stretch of tough games and a lot of those players needed a rest.

From here on out I expect the Canes to play their top team.

The Blues are also taking a risk resting their big guns against the Landers. That could blow up in their face but I get it, you need to keep guys fresh, just look at what happened to them last year when they didn’t.

@Canes4life

Are you doing the Canes best player
