Hurricanes 2021

@delicatessen Looking at the Hurricanes website, that is Ben Castle's job! He's the current General Manager - Rugby. I fully expect Darren Larsen to get the gig, so he can ruin Hurricanes Development and Recruitment with more authority. Pro forma vacancy ad. :face_with_tears_of_joy: :loudly_crying_face: :flushed_face:
@stargazer any of us couldn’t do any worse then Larsen

See PUJ is running out for the mighty Wainui tomorrow I think we’ll need him as we are playing North’s.
@mikey07 Quite right according to this published lineup that has him starting. http://www.clubrugby.co.nz/wellington/games-results.php?competition=1&season=18&round=7
Wainui look to have a fairly handy backline when you see TJ Va'a is in at first five. They also have a fairly huge guy in the 14 jersey that could cause a few tackling problems for Norths. -

Wellington

Danny Toala (Hastings) - I haven't seen the team sheet, but assume he'll play
That's all I've been able to find. -

That's all I've been able to find.Vince Aso (13) and the up and coming Riley Higgins (12) making club rugby look fairly easy yesterday:

That was abysmal by the red 15 near the start

I don’t have the video because I’m on my phone writing this but PUJ made and awesome try saving tackle to deny A North’s player scoring...if anyone’s interested it’s on the Wainui rugby Facebook page.

That's funny. Good speed and determination by PUJ but that ball carrier must be waking up at night thinking 'why didn't I dive?'

@stargazer All backs so far, disappointing!

Three great weeks past for the Hurricanes.
Two, possibly three, massive weeks ahead for the blokes in yellow and black.
Given their squads are both rammed to the brim with internationals the Blues and the Crusaders must be favourite for the final.
But I would love it if we can be party poopers. Our destiny is our own hands. Definitely dark horses for the competition.

How can letting the hapless Waratahs in for the best part of fifty pointy be classified as part of great week?

@sparky if we can field all of Evans, Savea, Coles, Barrett, Lomax and Perenara mixed in with the youthful exuberance of Numia, Flanders, Love, PUJ, IWL, Rayasi and Aumua the Canes easily have the firepower to win this comp.
I feel a lack of experience in this side was their downfall in SRA but we are now getting that experience back in spades so hopefully that puts us in a good position going into the latter stages of this competition.
Being the dark horses will suit us.

@canes4life You have made the major miscalculation of leaving out R. Prinsep so it will never happen. J. Blackwell will obviously partner IWL in the middle row and B. Proctor will shunt PUJ into the 12 jersey. This still leaves the other wing position up for grabs but then you would not be surprised to see R. Love slotted in there to free up the first five spot for the teachers pet JGB!
