@Canes4life probably another bad off season.
-
@Yeetyaah I see they've chosen the most midget locking combo possible.

@Canes4life I thought Plumtree was gone though?
@Yeetyaah I'm pretty sure it's all a ploy to ensure his son gets in there eventually.
-
Why don't the Canes just say fuck it and chuck Jordie at lock? Be as tall as the rest of them.
-
@Yeetyaah didn't they use him one year in a lineout against the Crusaders?
-
@Canes4life possibly I can maybe recall that happening once.
@Yeetyaah may aswell give him a shot there.
Quite ironic that our big men (Walker-Leawere / Leaupepe) are missing.

And who the f$%k is Hamilton Burr? A quick google search says he's from Scotland.

Oh awesome, more foreigners taking NZers places. Also he was hard to google due to the Hamilton v Burr duel.

@Canes4life was just going to ask that

Also strange to see the Scottish Waikato lock/loosie, Hamilton Burr, in the squad. Can't remember him from the Mitre 10 Cup; did he get much game time?

Burr started at 6 for the first part of the M10, scoring a try on debut vs Canterbury, and was usually in the 23.
@mikey07 The surname Crowley might be a hint to his origins. He is a decent halfback who played for Southland last year and was in the Canterbury system while at uni.

Great to see Kianu Kereru-Symes in that squad list.
This tho 14 Kobus Van Wyk :face_vomiting:

- Kobus Van Wyk
Particularly when he has been signed as a midfield back.

No idea, but I'm willing to bet none of them are from Hawkes Bay.

Worse still, Iose is from the Poo.

I think the last named is supposed to be Brayden Iose, the Number 8 from The 'Poo. He has got the wraps on him from his schoolboy days where he captained the NZ Secondary Schools team. Been on the Hurricanes radar since preseason 2017
