Holland has had these boys for years now. And he still chops and changes.
I really hope this coaching group is out end of season.
@foobanz I think his W/L record is nearly under 50%. If this was any other respectable sports league in the world he would have faced the chop ages ago.

@canes4life gee, that is bad. I think in the Boyd era we had the highest winning percentage (even if only 1 title - should have been 2 haha).
I wonder if Boyd would ever come back to the Canes.

Sorry for the spam - but I wish we had an NZ rugby media that would put these questions to the coaches.
NZ sports journalism is far too buddy buddy. It's a shame it's fallen down like it has.
@foobanz you're not wrong. The Hurricanes as an organisation seem to be floating along without any real consequence. Win, lose or draw no one in the media seems to care anymore which is a sad state. As I've said previously this organisation needs a complete cleanout.
When was the last time we heard from the G.M?

What I don't get is that if Holland wanted to play Savea in the midfield he should have done it in pre-season.
What the f#ck is the point of pre-season, just a waste of time if the team structure doesn't resemble what's going to happen during the season proper.
Well said. It just shows they don't have any idea.
Making drastic changes to your team after week 1 means whatever plan you have you've already ditched. Are we not thinking ahead? Did they not trust their plan for the season?

It's stranger than that. The Canes backline last week looked very sharp at times. Surely that means that you then work on building that to be most of the time/all of the time rather than change it out.
As Isaid I amlooking forward to seeing Jules at 12 but I am alsonot sure it is needed. Or at least have PUJ at 13 -
@kiwimurph that's if they take the field.
-
11-15 for the Blues is something else. Under the roof they will be very hard to contain.
-
I am glad I am not a Canes fan,Would be pulling my hair out every time a team is selected.
No consistency in selection at all,How is the team supposed to retain rhythm in their defence and attack with someone different next to you every week.Although I like Savea at 12 that maybe a master stroke if PUJ was at centre.

If you are picking the Canes then you should jump on this:
https://www.tab.co.nz/sports/event/1288775/rugby-union/super-rugby/super-rugby-pacific/blues-v-hurricanesCurrent odds:
Blues $1.30
Canes $3.30 -
How on earth can the Canes go two weeks in a professional competition and only play one actual real lock?
@nepia more than two weeks... Holland's been doing it since the start of 2020.

lisfranc foot injury.
That could be up to 3 months out.Depending on wether it is a break or a tear.
