@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 🤮

@Higgins Holland would have been one of Robertson's AB assistant coaches.

I hope if Razor gets the ABs job that he’s 100% autocratic if that’s the case ....

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.

This year's team might be the worst Canes team in our history

[Mackerzzzz]

@canefan nah 2012 was worse all they had was b barrett and c smith

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.

@mackerzzzz Taylor went all right.

As bad as he was, I'd say him and Holland are a push

[Chris]

Is a massive clean out needed off the field to get the recruitment and on field things right
Very surprised with selections and recruitment at the canes recently.
How much do the Canes miss TJ he seemed to be the heart of the Canes.

[Mackerzzzz]

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

[Canes4life]

Coles is back. Jeez this side could probably topple the main side.

Hopefully Love makes a statement at 10.

[Canes4life]

@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.

[Bovidae]

Is TK Howden injured? I haven't seen him in the Hunters teams.

For who hasn't noticed: there is a second picture with the Hurricanes U20s (contenders) squad. Just click on the ">".

I wish this game was televised!

No Tyrone Thompson in the Hunters' team; so either he's injured or they keep him ready for the main game, just in case the coke sniffer falls over his boot laces.

I totally agree with you look at that backline even with two youngsters at 10 and 15
