Fuck I hope we get to see what Iose can do at international level and we're not lumped with the Grace
Sotutu, Sititi, Iose. Some good options at 8.
Lakai put his hand up tonight - see how he goes next week when the level goes up again
Lakai stats not outstanding 6 tackes two misses
44 run meters from 11 runs which was the least meters of the cane looses@ploughboy said in QF - Hurricanes vs Rebels:

Lakai was everywhere tonight watching from the stands. Never dies with the ball and is immense in the carry, always makes metres.

No wonder his stats weren't good then.

@canefan Not many will go to other teams. Losing the Rebels doesn't suddenly make the Waratahs or the Brumbies unbroke.
Pretty much everyone except those with Wallabies aspirations will go overseas. Probably even some of those.

It will be interesting to see if any NZ teams have a dabble on 1 or 2 of them. Not saying it’s a guaranteed thing but it’s happened before.
Highlanders were trying for Matt Proctor before he chose to sign for the Rebels so I wouldn’t be surprised if NZ teams are trying for him again.

@Landers92 Ekuasi is NZ eligible too.

Fingers crossed Numia recovers quick.
If he's torn his calf, that doesn't sound like a quick recovery

Yeah that sounds like an injury, not a recovery.

Lomax had to help carry him off. Sad sight indeed, Numia’s had a huge year.

MOTM poll is here - https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/topic/6712/hurricanes-motm-vs-rebels-qf
I went Lakai, Iose and Barrett
Lakai is the Billy Proctor of the forwards, does the hard yard shit that is needed to be successful.
Barrett and Iose were the other two picks for me from where I was sitting.

Numia is done for the campaign. Fk it

Hope it’s not going to rule him out for Pommy tests. Up there with Ofa and form LHs.

Richard Knowler’s stand out players last night:
Standout performers for the Hurricanes included Brayden Iose, whose all-around display earned him a try and significant influence in both attack and defense, and Jordie Barrett, who orchestrated play with his vision and strong offloading game. Peter Lakai and Asafo Aumua were also instrumental, with Lakai's work rate around the field and Aumua's impact in the set pieces and open play proving pivotal.

Just watching now...
Lakai's little pop passes right at the line are great and he just keeps working around the field. I'd pick him at 7 for AB's now and let him grow into it.@Darren said in QF - Hurricanes vs Rebels:

I'd pick him at 7 for AB's now and let him grow into it.He’s arguably got the most complete game of any 7 in NZ IMO and will only get better as he matures. Dalton is the best defensive 7 and obviously number 1 but Lakai only being 20 and already playing like he is will put serious pressure on him over the next few years.

Jordie again showed why he's a real contender for AB captain, very matured level-headed player and constantly makes good decisions.
