@KiwiMurph he’s actually my second cousin. His Grandad was my Grandmas brother. That’s on the Curry side of the family so he is mostly white.

His Dad's from Wairoa, you can't get any more Māori than that.
Raetihi. Best town in NZ. Nothing there, but the best people.

The only person I know from Raetihi is a white farmer girl who went to Iona College (girls boarding school in Havelock North).

Canes looking for four wins on the bounce against the Chiefs. 18000 tickets sold already to this match.

@Bones lol what has Wainui done all season apart from look mediocre? McKenzie is trying to make up for what Wainui lacks in attacking ability and it's hurting his All Black chances.
Maybe it's just poor coaching that's holding Wainui and Stevenson back, but it's a worry. The Chiefs have totally lost their deadly attacking flair that they were renowned for during their title run and the few years afterwards.
Gotta agree with @Bones here, chief - the the Canes' wingers are nothing more than the South African versions of George Bridge

deluded Hurricanes fans mentioning their average players as "possible All Blacks" doesn't count for very much

I think they believe it's now a roster after Webber got a gig, some bench players and anyone signed for Crusaders.

@mariner4life Not as bad as Chiefs fans sickeningly dribbling over average players.

I'm a possible all black. I'm also a possible romantic partner of Scarlett Johansson.
It's just very very very very unlikely.

@junior funnily enough Goosen was mentioned as a possible AB a season or so ago don’t see Sean Wainui anywhere near being an AB. I don’t see Any of the Chiefs have anywhere near the work rate of Goosen.
@mikey07 and they can't score tries which is quite vital towards winning games.

They're not. They're just not laughably looking at the opposition wings and saying they gain confidence from seeing it when their wings aren't exactly Jonah and Tana.
You could almost literally look anywhere else for an advantage on paper/form and the only area where there isn't one, was the one chosen. That takes some analysis.

@Bones lol the whole Chiefs side is a weak link at the moment. Not too much analysis needs to go into beating them when they are all playing average rugby and have a coach who is the laughing stock of NZ right now. But if you feel that Wainui out of all people is one of their stronger players then good on yah. Let’s see how he goes on Saturday night.

Your argument is on point and not scattered among the seven seas, as usual. Why not just throw darts at a dartboard while blindfolded and facing in the opposite direction?

@Bones i’d rather not waste any more time on a team that passes blame on the refs for their poor form. Canes by 20+

@Canes4life someone should tell him to aspire to obtaining killer wings like Goosen and Van Wyk.
