Le'aupepe announced on Insta he's retiring on medical advice
A loss for the Canes for sure - however given our brainless lock selections I'm not sure they would have picked him anyway
@foobanz good to know, poor from the Canes for not mentioning it. Shouldn't they have brought in a replacement then considering he was named in the initial squad?

Wonder if Parsons or Cridge will get a look in now?

Thanks for this. I wonder if it was a concussion issue.

@nepia don't be silly, they are too tall. Seriously wouldn't mind seeing Parsons get a trot.

Yeah they should at least say something

Two Magpies in the starting lineup!!! Holland obviously submitted the team sheets before realising he’d gone over the quota.
@Stargazer Any idea what’s going on with Evans? Injured?

I think Evans is injured

@canes4life I'm sure they will bring in Caleb Delaney instead.

And Mafileo covers loosehead
Everyone knows my views on Blackwell. But regardless this looks the best side for some time. Unsure if Rayasi was available or not. But Goosen might be seen as a better defender. And Rakete-Stones might if available might be unhappy. And hopefully some of the other players (like Toala) get a run in the Aussie games
Wheres Le'aupepe. Is he not considered good enough. Or injured again this year?

Rayasi is available he was running around no problem in the videos on Instagram...knowing Holland probably thinks he’s tired and needs a rest

@african-monkey he probably will and I for one wouldn’t blame him, same for the likes of Toloa

@african-monkey The Chiefs or Highlanders should look to pick up him, Jacob Pierce, Jarred Adams, Ethan Roots, Tanielu Tele'a, and Teague McElroy.

"In the backs, Salesi Rayasi was dropped from the 23 for what Holland described as his work off the ball in Auckland"@chris this is the Canes coaching mindset problem in a nutshell IMHO
Rayasi is dangerous, he's hard to defend. He can score tries, and create tries
We aren't go to win if we don't have players like this
That should overshadow any perceived work rate issue, which a good coach would be able to solve.
to be honest I haven't noticed this with Rayasi. Rayasi is not why we're losing and for Holland to mention this publicly is incredibly disappointing
He can't see problems which 99% of fans point out here and on Facebook each week

Yeah totally agree. the Canes have always been hard to beat because of their X factor players as they are unpredictable. It seems now these coaches are dampening the X factor down for journeyman.
