Hurricanes 2019 Discussion

[sparky]

@Canes4life I take it as a given now that Colesy, Addie Savea,Evans, TJP and BB give absolutely everything on the paddock. It had become the Canes way. Hopefully others will follow their lead.

Problem next week is that all 23 Crusaders will give everything they've got too.

[Canes4life]

So much for always wanting to be a Hurricane if this actually eventuates.

[Chris]

@Canes4life Yeah but will it happen ? I am not so sure

[Canes4life]

@Chris Jordie will look like the "Kevin Durant" of Super Rugby if he makes the switch.

[Chris]

@Canes4life HaHaHa to be honest we don't need Jordie at the Crusaders we are pretty covered at Fb,and the MF

[Yeahtheboys]

Chiefs will take him

[Toddy]

I wouldn't blame Jordie for leaving. His development seems to have stalled at the Canes. He definitely hasn't looked like AB quality this year.

[broughie]

How is that other lock rehabbing? Torn biceps or pec muscle? He was outstanding for the Canes last year and would be better than Scranton.

[Chris]

@broughie Are you talking about Sam Lousi ? he is going overseas at the end of the season.

[broughie]

@Chris Yes that is the guy. I think since coming to the canes he has made significant improvement and provided a lot of grunt to the pack. Had the ability to hold up guys in the tackle too.

[mikey07]

@broughie he definitely developed I thought oh great another players that’s all hype but he really proved me wrong it’s just a shame he’s going.

[Chris]

Anybody heard about Walker-Lawere I don't see anywhere he has re-signed with the Canes as yet.
