@Winger said in Moana Pasifika v Hurricanes:
Happy with Lakai being given another game at 7 with savea at 8, the locking combo of IWL and Bird, Flanders being given time at 6 (he will never be an AB but is a very skillful player) and Naholo another game on the wing. And the combo of Roigard and Cameron has been kept
Mysteries is why is Higgins not starting at 2nd 5. Not even in the reserves. This is odd after having such a good NPC and looking so promising. It would ahve been so easy to give Savea a rest and Higgins either starting or a reserve
And it seems that PRS is on the outer now
I have an answer as to why Higgins hasn’t featured too much this year. He had clean up surgery on his shoulder in the off-season and though not injured, he is on limited minutes for the first few months. Whatever that means is anyones guess.

Shame as he might not get much game time when PUJ returns.

@Winger I don't think PUJ will get much gametime when he returns either.
No need to rush Higgins, I just thought this week's game would have been an ideal time to rest Proctor and give him some proper minutes while Jordie was away.
Still a solid team, definitely giving MP respect after last year's result. If we dominate the set piece (a learning from last year's loss), we should come away with maximum points.

Tyler Laubscher is having no luck with injuries. Looks an exciting prospect if he can ever get over his injuries

He's been a consistent food bill for the Canes. Apart from that one game last year, hasn't he been injured for 2 seasons? (excluding this season so far).

@BerhamporeNinja almost spot on. Wing the only small difference

Hurricanes are good at picking players that fall into that category joining Christian Lloyd, Geoff Cridge and Hugh Renton in that category.
