Let me tell you, folks, the Hurricanes — tremendous team, just incredible — they have the best All Blacks. Everybody says so. I talk to the coaches, I talk to the fans — they all agree. The greatest players. Big, strong, fast — just like we like ’em. Peter Lakai? Amazing. Ruben Love? Total winner. These guys don’t just play rugby — they dominate. Other teams? Very overrated. Not even close. The Hurricanes are making the All Blacks great again. Believe me.

How can you miss out Proctor and Jordie in that spiel?

I wish, unfortunately he can't even make the Canes 23 which many are perplexed by.

Chiefs fan here, this game has me a little nervous I can’t lie despite the bookies having us heavy favourites. Canes have their strongest 23 of season at home, big win away last week, they’ve been wanting to get us back after last year’s semi since full time of that game and in the context of their season a win here is huge. I just hope we don’t mentally fold, however if we’re up when it’s time for both teams to go the bench, I think we’ll see it out.

Must be good enough to be the reverse 9. What is the Scotsman smoking?

Canes scrum isn’t bashing oppo the way they did last year. Numia seems a step down from where he was in Super last year. I wonder if his Achilles is ?

[cgrant]

Huge game for Norris. If he can achieve parity against Lomax at scrum time, he should earn a selection within the AB squad as he is the form prop in the loose.

[Darren]

Canes front row is nowhere close to last year, in set piece and in general play. No idea what happened.

No Sangster this year. Maybe engine room underpowered?

[cgrant]

Nah, IWL and Gallagher are physically huge, as is Will Tucker.

There is plenty of technique involved. Patty T was a poor scrummager until a year or two ago.

[cgrant]

My answer was concerning your word "underpowered". I do know that scrum is also a matter of technique.

[Canes4life]

Is this New Zealand’s closest rivalry?

[mariner4life]

@Canes4life two teams mired in mediocrity, with three titles between them in 30 seasons. Made for each other.

[sparky]

Huge game. The Hurricanes will need to build up a bit of a lead, before the mighty Wallace Sititi comes off the bench.
