This is Gareth Evans first game since the Mitre 10 Cup, last year.

Thank you Mrs Evans

Seriously, good to see him back. The Canes are going to need all the experience they can get.

This was pretty dire but they still won by 22 points and got the bonus

How did Evans get selected into an All Black squad?

I wouldn't pick Caleb Clark on this year's performance.

Neither would anyone else.

Evans, kirifi, were much better last year. Fringe players are often not great after their ABs debut year

That they were fringe destroys the myth of New Zealand depth.

As much as I think you're full of shit with your rating of Evans in general , he's much better than you make out, he got selected because Hansen had his don't pick Akira no matter what policy even though Akira was the best 8 in the country that year by some margin.

Dear God, the "Julian Savea back in Black" bandwagon is back on the rails again on social media.

Another tick in the fuck TT off column.

I'm hoping he scores 4 more tries to knock fuckwit foolau of the top of the chart

Why? The Aussie teams will get better as it goes on.

Rebels are shit clearly. Better to judge the games they aren't in.

Every game so far the Ozzies have lost, ergo it's shit. Seems to be the line of reasoning

So, we're relying on TJ then

@machpants ya. the basic premise is that it's a 'competition'.

The sooner we get Evans, Perenara and Savea back on the park the better. Need all the experience we can get. Wouldn’t mind seeing Flanders, Savea and Evans as a trio.

[Stargazer]

@canes4life Yeah, I'd love to see that backrow, too, but that 6 jersey is glued to Prinsep's back.

I suggested that as your best trio months ago, glad to see you're coming round to my thinking.

Sounds like you'll be playing a 5 10 split.

[Canes4life]

@nepia about the only time we’ve agreed. Too bad the coaches won’t make it happen though. Good to see Evans back, he was excellent a couple of seasons ago but has been hampered by injury ever since.

[Canes4life]

Next week I would bring in IWL for Blackwell, Aumua for Coles, Love for Leger, Campbell/Roigard for Taumateine, Evans for Kirifi, Umaga-Jensen in for Proctor and Rayasi in for Savea.

So would every one else mate...

Just not the coaches

[Stag]

This comp is going to be an absolute farce. There will be teams that are unbeaten that will not make the final.

[Canes4life]

@mackerzzzz crazy aye.
