Hurricanes vs Blues
-
Blues will be a true test esp at set piece and Defence. Higgins should start! .. hopefully, is Hoskins injured? they would want to start him, hes on fire!
@BerhamporeNinja it was mentioned in an article that Segner is going to start at blindside this week and Akira at 8. Hoskins for impact off the bench.
-
@Unite I'd say they will announce that when the Canes team is named later. Pretty sure he will get four weeks for that clumsy hit on Petaia.

Barrett banned for three weeks, a week shorter than I expected.

Nope that will make it 2
He might get a lighter punishment if he attends World Rugby’s tackle school, the coaching intervention programme where players can get their suspensions reduced.

They're always 6 mitigated to 3 for being good character and polite etc. Then a week off for tackle school - pretty much every red has been that that I can remember
Anyway you want to be called Scott Ah Wong, he got zero for his red

Nigel Ah Wong. The reason being there was no head contact - I don't know why he was red carded in the first place.

Yup and that's why his red card was downgraded
"Having conducted a detailed review of all the available evidence, including all camera angles and additional evidence, including from the player and submissions from his legal representative, Aaron Lloyd, the Foul Play Review Committee found the foul play did not breach the Red Card threshold." "With respect to sanction the Foul Play Review Committee deemed the act of foul play merited a Warning as it was close to, but did not breach the Red Card threshold." "In light of the above, the red card will be removed from the Player’s record and it will be replaced with a Warning sanction for the offence which will remain on the Player’s record." "The player is therefore free to resume playing.” -

The scrum will be tested without Ofa there to mark Lomax.

I thought the Blues would probably win this one but after looking at both teams and the surprise return of Flanders off the bench, I’m liking the Canes, especially at home.
Awesome to see Higgins get a chance, hope he takes it with both hands. Tevita Mafileo also gets a shot.
