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@crucial said in Blues vs Hurricanes 02/2022:

Isn't there 5 changes just in the backs? Only Booth and Barrett the same.

Gibson and Prinsep come into the forward pack.
Kirifi and Flanders out of the starting 15 in the pack
Julian Savea and Goosen played last week.JGB,Sullivan and Rayasi come into the backline amongst a confusing shuffle around.

Gee the Canes at $3.30 are a good shout.
We've picked a crap team but most of that Blues team didn't play NPC. I think it'll be a lot closer than $3.30

@foobanz I think the starting lineup may still prove stronger than last week. Thought Iose deserved a start at 8 though. Will be an interesting match up.
@arhs would definitely look stronger without these weirdo selections.

@machpants sums it up.
''Devan Flanders, Ruben Love and Peter Umaga-Jensen – three players the Hurricanes could potentially build their future team around – have all been dropped from the starting lineup to the bench. In their places come Reed Prinsep, Jackson Garden-Bachop and Julian Savea (who has shifted into second five after starting last weekend’s match on the right wing) – three serviceable players who aren’t out of their depth at this level of the game, but likely wouldn’t make the starting line-up of any other New Zealand team. Those decisions, according to Holland, are almost exclusively tactical.''
We essentially go from looking like favourites to chumps with those changes. Pathetic selections by a pathetic coach.

Well, it's not like it comes with expectations
The franchise only wins once every 20 years, so is way off being due
And unlike say the Chiefs job it's not a stepping stone to coaching the ABs.
So you go there, do your thing for a few years, meet your incredibly low but realistic KPIs and get paid. Sweet work
