    Jeez not looking that flash next season, now the positive gives Kirifi a chance to shine. I was kinda hoping they’d have a loose forward trio of Savea Kirifi and Evans.

    @mikey07 we can swap you Tony Lamborn for Murphy Taramai and that will give a player can play at 7 at a drop

      @Steven-Harris Taramai is out for several months with a broken ankle.

      Evans can play at 7, too. Maybe Flanders could get some early game time at 8.

                @Jonty-lean Only for Ardie, I think. Taramai will not miss too many games and isn't a starter anyway. Probably enough players (either on development contracts or not) training with the Canes during preseason. Would be great to know who they are!

                    @Canes4life I've always trouble recognising players (other than Magpies and regular starters) without seeing their faces, but the fourth looks like Jamie Booth.

                      there's a turn around and bend over joke here, but I'm not going to make it.

                        @nzzp I probably wouldn't understand the "joke" anyway ( 😉 ), but I meant "not recognising" from one still image like the one above.

                          Article in RugbyPass - I think herald picks them up in a few days. Raises some interesting points, like WTF have they picked up random no-name SA midfielder for. That is NOT a 2m+lock FFS!

                          https://www.rugbypass.com/news/ardie-savea-injury-just-one-more-hurdle-for-hurricanes-to-overcome-but-it-certainly-wont-be-the-toughest/

                          "There’s a reason why middle-of-the-road 10s have flourished at the Highlanders, and it’s partially because Aaron Smith is capable of serving up ball on a platter, courtesy of the side’s industrious forwards."

                          Sopoanga - burn!

                              I'd definitely put Nonu in there instead of Laumape; and Andre Taylor instead of Jordie Barrett.

                                  Definitely Nonu at 12.

                                  I'd have Jane at 15 and NMS at 14.

                                      @mariner4life depends if Tameifuna can last more then 4 mins, and if Nanai always injured Williams can all last a game

                                        According to his instagram, Alex Fidow is injured. Is that still something from Mitre 10 Cup or is this a new injury?

                                          @Stargazer poor guy always seems to be injured, it must be a new one as he played in the final of the mitre 10 cup.
