    @Winger Nothing against Leger but watching him play the first half against the Chiefs on Saturday I don’t think is a 10 sure he can be a stop game when required but not good enough to be one week in week out

    @Crucial I was just thinking...sometimes I do that how do you reckon Jason Robertson would go in a Canes jersey he looked pretty handy against Wellington in the time he was on?

    I think I mentioned during NPC that I was quite impressed with him. Nothing flash but does the basics well and is a very good kicker from both hand and tee.
    He may not have set the world alight as a young fella but has developed nicely as a capable pivot.
    I don’t think he’d be out of his depth at Super level. (As a reserve)

    So who will they bring in? I hope we don’t persist with Orbyn Leger. Lincoln McClutchie might finally get a gig but I doubt it.

    Leger at least brings some Super rugby experience to the job.

    @Crucial Like I said until he threw a couple intercepts out of desperation he was all over JGB I was impressed.

    With Prinsep down with a calf injury that will see him miss at least the first round of Super Rugby, the Magpie was named to start in the Hurricanes final pre-season fixture against the Highlanders in Alexandra today.

    Went to see a pic of his nose from his IG, turns out he has been hitting the gym hard in the off season.

    @stargazer I thought he looked decent last year until his opportunities dried up. As for the canes? Not going to be pretty

    @canefan Yeah he was unfortunately didn’t get the consistency of back to back games to get the chance to settle.

    I think a problem for the Canes is that TJP was a dominant figure in their backline, which hid the many weaknesses of JGB last year. Now, the halfbacks also need to step up and provide some direction.
