Blues vs Hurricanes 02/2022

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.

Akira could be out of action for a while.
He's indicated he has a lisfranc foot injury.
Unlike. I see @Chris got in quickly with a like for this news.

HaHa more on the info than the news,

Tu'inukuafe, Tuipulotu, Cowley-Tuioti, Papalii, Ioane, and Barrett. Best chance Canes have had in a while.
@tim to be fair we are also missing Coles, Perenara, Franks, Bird, Walker-Leawere, Roigard and Scrafton so it all evens out I guess.

@crucial hopefully all of the minutes.

@canes4life Fidow too. Playing the 100-year old May can't have been in the plan.

Sucks for Akira
Huge opportunity for Tom Robinson if he can stay fit (big if).
I assume he'll get the c quite often as the team captains also struggle to stay uninjured.

I’d have put Savea at 12, and UJ at 13. Savea may not have the step, but he can fix the defensive line, keeps his shoulders square and doesn’t crab. He is actaully what the ABs need too, not him, but someone who can do that.
But yes, his defence ain’t great.
And Princep jeysus, if Blues loosies all fit, they’ll monster the break down.
@machpants Tackles with his head down too that’s why fainga'anuku bumped him off on the way to scoring
