Fijian Drua vs Hurricanes
-
@foobaNZ I think the fact Aumua didn’t go off on a stretcher means the injury is hopefully less dramatic compared to Roigard. He looked sore though so at the very least he’ll probably be out for 3 weeks or more. Fingers crossed it isn’t a season ending injury because O’Reilly simply isn’t on the same level and we don’t have much depth at hooker.

@Dan54 he looked pretty happy in some of the post match photos so hopefully all good.

Few are though
With Roigard we had other (3) good or good enough options. No Booth type well past his best alternatives. So, I wasn't too upset as long as TJ stayed fit
Aumua is another matter. There's O'Reilly and then?? It's a concern. And O'Reilly has had recent injury issues
Aumua and OReilly are a strength in this area. Lose one or both and it's starting to look grim

@Canes4life really hope so mate.

On the game
Good win for the Canes
Flanders esp and Kirifi did well enough, But Iosi, Shields and Lakai are clearly our number 1 option
@Winger the Shields, Lakai and Iose combo is probably our best balanced. Flanders and Kirifi have been quality this year though.
