@mikey07 Apparently, Jason Holland is still the head coach and Chris Gibbes the forwards coach.

@Stargazer I’m really looking forward to see how Holland goes with the Canes next year

A few wider squad members spotted in the below post that I’ve noticed include:
Sam Coles (Manawatu)
Vernon Bason (Manawatu)
Kyle Preston (Wellington)
Kemara Hauiti-Parapara (Wellington)
Konrad Newland (Hawkes Bay)Looks like TJ Perenara is hugging what looks like Chris Boyd. I wonder if he’s involved as an assistant.

@Canes4life christ can you imagine if we end up with Parapara for the Canes too. Good lord.

@Stargazer he was just announced as the Director of Rugby for Poneke so doubt he’s there as a player.

@foobaNZ for that to happen Roigard, Perenara, Judd and Vijoen would have to get injured first.

@Stargazer said in Hurricanes 2024:
Reon Paul (BoP, midfielder) also training with the Canes.
Another Norths product.

PRS hitting 290kg

Sam Coles and Logan Wallace are two of the players that have been given National Development Contracts.
@Bovidae plenty of Manawatu players coming through. Shame we didn't snap up Nalaga who's gone to the Drua. He looked like a future star.

Tom Allen (Hawkes Bay) another newbie spotted on the Hurricanes mixer.

Assistant Forwards: Bryn Evans@Canes4life normally the best coaches were either middle of the road players or not players at all, so on that basis, it's a good group!
(Not counting CJ as middle of the road - just the others).

He's the assistant coach responsible for the line-out and kick-off according to the official Hurricanes media release. I assume Mackintosh will retain his responsibility for the scrum.
