Anyone know if Laumape copped a suspension from that Crusaders game. I was expecting him to miss the rest of this SRA campaign...

Pretty sure this is how it works.
-
@mikey07 It's against the Western Force. Maybe we get three players on the field instead of two.
@stargazer Hey hey Hey don’t get carried away now you can choose between IWL or Flanders that’s it no Raukete-Stones or Toala is 1 too many for a starting 23.

@stargazer yeah piss poor really.

From that article in the Hawke's Bay Today:
Hurricanes CEO Avan Lee said: "We are really looking forward to playing in Napier. The team always love the experience in the Bay and it's always a great atmosphere on game day. Our relationship with Hawke's Bay rugby is very important to us and we thank them and the Force for making this happen."

@stargazer I remember him promising that we secured the talents of an international calibre first five (post Beaudy moving on) in a Radio Sport interview. He’s lied through his teeth more than once.

@canes4life Or he consider Simon Hickey as "international calibre" :face_with_tears_of_joy:
@stargazer probably, no surprise at the other odd selections if that’s the case.
-
It's a pity that they didn't swap this Napier game for the one against the Rebels. The Rebels are at least certain to field Stacey Ili.
@stargazer No way the Rebels are of too high quality compared to the Force you know you only get the rubbish games being little brother.

About the only thing that is important to them is the possibility of wrangling a large amount of money out of the Events Department of the Napier City Council as an appearance fee. It would not surprise me if any appearance fee collected would provide a return that is greater than their share of the gate take from a shite team's appearance at the Sky Stadium.

@mikey07 I was on a flight back to Welly from Auckland when the A Cup was on and Hickey was sitting a couple of rows in front of me. He definitely isn't the biggest bloke running around.
