@Canes4life I don't think they'll drop Morgan if he's fit.
To be honest, I think Morgan is passable at NPC level. He's not the worst 10 floating around.

Well I wonder who will run over Hurley this week
I see what you did there. Bit early though don't you reckon.

They did last year but they had a (much) better alternative in JGB. This years there's no obvious replacement. Shame as passable at NPC level is not good enough to win the trophy.
I would give Love a run at first to see how he goes. I think he's a better fit at FB though

Big game for me, sitting in the Hutt supporting my boys in the blue and gold!
-
We are defending well so far.
-
We need some ball
-
Man there is some ball movement in this game. Lions strike first through Peter Lakai.
-
Why the did we take Hauiti-Parapara back? He’s so slow at clearing the ball.
-
Siale Lauaki looking very good in the 3 jersey. Scrumming well, defending strongly and very good with ball in hand. I’m glad the Canes have signed him already.
-
Hurley has some nice touches. Disappointing he is such a midget
-
Shit wee have put in some tackles. Got some work to do
-
Hugely impressed with our performance so far. Defence is attitude. We are holding well
-
Otago holding in for sure, too bad Wellington are the best defensive team in the comp. Haven’t let in a try yet this season.
This game will surely open up in the second.
-
We have a lot of grit. Gilbert playing more like a 12 than a 10

PUJ option taking is not good
That is true, he stayed with the Canes far too long.
