    @canes4life I actually think you right, I really like the way PUJ is tracking, and think jim in partnership with ALB or Goodhue at 12 has got possiblities, I a Canes man, but just don'e see Lumpy doing it on iternational stage,

    I'd defend him, but disrespecting his name is a great idea. Well done son.

      @delicatessen mate like the boy a good player, but having to get disrespected before you get stuck in smacks of someone who is a sometimes bloody good super player, not an international.

        @dan54 I think Goodhue and ALB are both suited more to 13 than 12 so you might actually see PUJ get a run in the 12 jersey at some stage.

        @canes4life Yep can agree with that Canes, no probs with me if he gets a run at 12.

          @dan54 Especially, if you consider that the "disrespect" was people saying that he wasn't playing well (which was true).

            @dan54 everyone has their forms of motivation, he must have had a whole lot of internal motivation to get to the stage he's gotten to.

            Let's watch this season before we count him out as an international. He's far more than a 'sometimes' good super player, he can dominate and change games.

            I don't think you're giving credit where it's due tbh.

              @delicatessen Yep you could be right mate, as I said like the young fella, thought he had lots potential, and agree I was probably being harsh on sometimes good Super player, he probably almost always good at super level, I just not sure he has gone as well as I hoped at international level. Maybe just a little small to play his style at test level? Anyway I hope he rips it apart this year and proves me wrong.

                        @canes4life interesting to see PUJ on the bench and wtf is Prinsep doing as reserve lock. I’d assume Fifita would move to lock....

                          Have you no confidence in Ardie being able to use his height in the locking position?

                              I'm not sure anyone would have predicted those starting XVs.

                                @canes4life Awesome to see Flanders at 8, his preferred position!

                                Only one Magpie in the 23 ... well below the Highlanders.

                                    Hmmm two debut props for the blues? Nice bench front row....I'd prefer them over the starters

                                    And is Christie injured?

                                      @duluth Strong Blues squad, including the bench forwards. Clear favourites for this game.

                                        That starting Blues loose forward trio is really quite intimidating.

                                        And then teh ginger maniac off the bench with Ofa. Some guys in yellow are getting whacked.

                                          I wonder if its a tactic with the new rules for Canes to go with a lighter more mobile pack?
