    @Canes4life Love is a 1st 5 so Holland might be happy to use him as the 3rd option and select another winger.

      @Bovidae they've signed Love as a 'utility' so I'm thinking that may also open up a spot to develop another first five. I suppose we will find out on Dec 2/3

          @mikey07 probably donโ€™t need him with Aso in there aswell. Would rather us develop Lincoln so when Hickey hopefully pisses off next year we have someone with experience in that position. (Even though it will be very limited experience)

                    @mikey07 being a former Chief maybe heโ€™s trying to sabotage the Canes. Seriously though between Prinsep, Blackwell, Hickey and the re-signing of Savea, the guy should be booted from the job.

                          In terms of height, that's 2 Blackwells, right?

                            He will probably have to look up to Ardie though.

                                  @Stargazer reading between the lines from what Holland had to say, it sounds like we will have access to Rayasi but there is still some negotiation to be had with NZ Sevens and his commitments to that campaign aswell.
