@Stargazer recognize anyone from the below yo yo test? Is far right Brayden Mitchell?, third in Jono Hickey? 6th in Trent Renata? Not too sure who that is fourth in...

@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.
Really.

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!
"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!

Canes version
Mmmm Laumape not Nonu, and Jordie in there? Does show, apart from hooker, canes tight five has sucked for ten years

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

Shit team. Chiefs side would win by 20

@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.
-
Sucks to get injured in the off season then.
Hopefully he can still work on scrummaging, if he can sort that out he will be very good, but right now he might still be a liability. -
@mikey07 Fortunately, Rakete-Stones can play LH and TH (and hooker). Although he played at LH for the Magpies this season, I think he prefers TH. With Toby Smith and Chris Eves both gone, it will be interesting to see how much game time he'll get and at which side.

The Hurricanes will have a new head coach next season. John Plumtree is expected to step back from his role as head coach to join Ian Foster's All Blacks management team, leaving the Hurricanes scrambling to piece together alternate plans for next year's Super Rugby season which starts in six weeks. The Herald understands Hurricanes assistant Jason Holland is the favourite to become the Hurricanes' third head coach in as many years, though it could yet be in a co-coaching capacity with newly-appointed forwards mentor Chris Gibbes. Negotiations between the Hurricanes and New Zealand Rugby, who pay the salaries of the head coach and one assistant, are on-going but an announcement is expected by Thursday or Friday this week.https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=12294754

Confirmed: https://www.hurricanes.co.nz/news/article/hurricanes-promote-jason-holland-to-head-coach/
What a disastrous off season for the Canes. Losing Beauden to the Blues, Ardie to injury and now their coach to the All Blacks - this would derail most teams but I still think we have the calibre of players to make the playoffs.
), but I meant "not recognising" from one still image like the one above.
