Hurricanes 2021

@stargazer They seem to have some say over coaching appointments though. Firstly the Hamateur and now J Holland who both made their mark as assistant coaches at the Crusaders. One shudders to think what the ABs record might be under their stewardship.
-
@higgins Jason Holland has never been coach at the Crusaders; he has been a Canterbury assistant coach, but that's a long time ago. He has been assistant coach at the Hurricanes since 2015.
@stargazer That makes it even more strange how he keeps getting the appointments further up the chain.
-
@bovidae Hopefully Fozzie gets the chop so Razor can get the job and take Holland with him.....actually maybe not Gibbes will probably get the job 🤮

The second the got rid of Fletcher Smith I knew they were F***ed he was way better that JGB
The hurricanes need to change their tactics to have a chance this year. Last year they could at least get Laumape moving this year he's been a dud.
And getting rid of the van wouldn't go amiss...
He is too old and he's holding up rayasi's progress.@mackerzzzz said in Hurricanes 2021:

@canefan nah 2012 was worse all they had was b barrett and c smith
-
@mikey07 Certainly not, we have to endure going through all the guys training up at Rugby League Park right through to the Under 18s before that is likely to happen. Also throw in every Swindale Shield club first five before McLutchie is likely to be considered and that's before you even start on the guys playing in the 'Poo.

@canefan geez that's a million times better!
The problem is that on the other side of the ledger was the Hammettuer.

The Hammer and Alama were limited but were also far and away better than the current lot.

As bad as he was, I'd say him and Holland are a push
-
I disagree that Holland needs to go I think the issue is higher up.
Nobody seems to want to play for the canes

Unsure where you get this from
But TBH if I was a very promising young player living in the Canes region and a Canes fan. If all the teams wanted to sign me I doubt if I would sign for the Canes as it is now (esp a taller lock or a 6. And a centre). And a big factor in this is the coaches
-
Coles is back. Jeez this side could probably topple the main side.
Hopefully Love makes a statement at 10.

@winger having Coles on the sidelines hasn’t helped aswell. Perenara and Coles are probably the two players that usually bring that extra bit of fizz that more often than not gets the boys up and passionate for the jersey.
