Hurricanes 2021

@bovidae he may ask for a release. He's too talented to be sitting out every week. He would push for a starting role at any other franchise in world rugby, apart from the Crusaders.
-
@stargazer Hurricanes fans are worried too, but that is because of who is on the list not who isn't! Oh except for JGB of course.
@higgins James Blackwell is a god.

Sir Pinetree, Richie and Dan are in that category (and Beaver for a very brief period). J Blackwell would rank about choir boy status.

@higgins no Ardie yet. Hoping the big three of Ardie, Perenara and Barrett confirm their stay. But all of them leaving can't be ruled out either with the league rumours and the 'Jordie to the Blues' rumour.
A recent article suggested the Canes had signed up 28 players for 2022. With no media release actually citing who those players are.
@canes4life how good w that be though! JB rumour wouldnt make sense they have full stocks and also RTS
-
@higgins nah I've got Blackwell higher than McCaw and Carter.
@canes4life higher? Well I guess Blackwell is a whisker or two taller than McCaw.

@canes4life "James Blackwell is a god."

How dare you put Blackwell in the same category as Them mere mortals...

I can see both JGB and Hickey getting new contracts that’s just how stupid these coaches are

@mikey07 how can you not? He’s a pure specimen of a man, the most complete lock you would ever see.
-
@canes4life Did you watch the Breakdown, yesterday?
@stargazer haha nah, was he on there? seriously I wish we booted the lad, he’s not good enough.
Hopefully the JB rumoured to go to the Blues is James Blackwell not Jordie Barrett.

-
@canes4life Haha, no, he wasn't on the Breakdown, but IMO Justin Marshall insulted Ash Dixon just by mentioning James Blackwell. Watch this YouTube video from 37:22, and esp. 38:48.
@stargazer bloody Justin, stop mentioning the guys name. He’s mud.
-
@stargazer now that he’s signed make sure you actually start him Holland.
That article also confirms that Bird will be a replacement for Le’aupepe.

How bad is the Journalism from Stuff last I remembered Le’aupepe had retired had he not?
Also it’s good to finally get an update on Gareth Evans it’s like he’s just disappeared really poor from the Canes.

@mikey07 yeah didn't he post that he was retiring from rugby on medical advice? It feels like the Canes coaches don't have the best communication with their players.
Before Beaudy left they were fairly certain he would stick around (we all know what happened), Holland also said the other day he's pretty confident Perenara will re-sign (when it's looking more and more likely that he will sign for the Roosters), and now they have misread Le'aupepe's situation.
Seems like communication at Rugby League park is a little off if you ask me.

Pepesana Patafilo on the bench (Tawa)@stargazer wonder why the likes of X Numia, A Fidow, L Mitchell, B Iose and T Mafelio are not also on that list as they have hardly played. Come to think of it P Umaga-Jensen and R Love probably fall into the category as well and Mikey07 would appreciate them turning out for his outfit alongside Visinia up at William Jones Park against HOBM.
@nepia Wainui have a blindside fronting up in the starting line up for the first time at Premier level this season
