23 Ngane PunivaiAwesome side but odd that we have both Umaga-Jensen and Punivai on the bench. Would have preferred a first five / fullback option like Godfrey in the mixer tbh.

@SouthernMann said in Highlanders v Hurricanes:
@Canes4life Neither him or Gilbert are especially good defenders. The midfield is a massive weakness this weekend on D. Midfield depth and development is a bit of an issue for the team. We have young Te Hiwi and Whaanga. Neither look to have express pace. Whannga will be good once he fills out a bit.
Sounds like you have got those two mixed up? Whaanga turns 27 in May while Te Hiwi is 21.

Nah... I'm talking about the 20-year-old Whaanga.

22 Peter Umaga-Jensen
23 Ngane PunivaiSome surprising selections
Tight 5 as expected (especially with Tucker out)
Back row. Kirifi missing out to Lakai is a surprise. As is Iose at 8. Although it was a coin toss with these positions. Lakai I rate very highly and think 7 will be his best position. And Iose has been in wonderful form so can understand why.
Starting back line was as expected. But 22 and 23 is a surprise. Why not Godfrey.

@Winger i don’t get why we need two centres on the bench. Really odd, why not give Godfrey mins off the bench if his future is going to be in the 10 jersey.
Otherwise real happy with that starting 15.

@SouthernMann Lowe must have a bloody good agent, I really don't know how he's managed to stay in Super this long. The Canes will definitely look to run down his channel.
@Canes4life why are you always bagging the magpie players mate? You upset they always carve up your welly boys

You do know Canes4life is and has been wanting Godfrey in team all year ?
You do know Godfrey is a Hawkes Bay player? I haven't noticed any Bay players getting bagged. -

You shouldn’t have the right to defend it after that dog act.

@Canes4life oh mate I think you need to ask around what the welly boys done to it last year and how it had to get fixed

@African-Monkey so true. This is either @Higgins or @Stargazer’s second account. Or Jonah Lowe’s joined the Fern?
