            Even you know the first two were forced on us, the older Thug Brother probably still can't find Napier on a map ...

            Flanders has played two halves of games for the Canes and is already leagues better than Coman. Seriously, even you blokes didn't really think Coman was any good right?

            It's like the Canes are going out of their way to rub our noses in how they don't give a shit about HB.

              @Nepia It's a good thing that The Mighty Kahn had the good taste not to play for the Canes or you'd have four from Mako-land in your XV.

              Poached as Eggs!!!

              Yeah - Mike was born and raised here - but, not good enough to play for a team destined to become National Champions! 🙂

                Kahn was our best re-poach home to the North Island from you chequebookers ever, if not him then it was another season of Chris Eaton!

                        Looking at the that Canes 'Magpies' 15 you can see why the Canes don't really bother picking Hawkes Bay players. That 15 wouldn't even make the semis of the NPC.

                            Wouldn’t you need to compare it to a “non canes” magpie team to come to that conclusion?

                            @Stargazer should be able to put one of those together pretty quickly. Would be interesting to see.

                              @Stargazer At the risk of offending @Canes4life again, FFS, the Canes really are taking the piss. It's one thing to have a senior team with barely any Magpies but an U20s team with less than the Poo even in an era where the Hawkes Bay high schools beat Wellington high schools like they're red head step sons is ludacris. Go fuck yourself Wellington Hurricanes. 🙂

                                You Bay boys are just talentless. That Hawkes Bay Canes XV is a joke. Learn how to develop your players better instead of pointing the finger at Wellington. To make matters worse you have two Wellington boys in that XV. 😂😂😂

                                  @Nepia does it really matter where the players come from? You could always jump waka again until you find a regional base that's represented to your satisfaction.

                                  Canterbury seems to have pretty good representation at all levels....
