Hurricanes v Chiefs

[Bovidae]

Dodgy KFC for Jules.

Will be interesting to see if BB kicks as his quad is a problem when he does. I would be forcing him to kick from hand as much as possible.

@bovidae Cos Booth is not the best at kicking from hand (ahem 3 charge downs), so yeah tactical kicking might be lacking from the Canes

So has anyone seen an update from the Chiefs? Who are playing, Dmac or Mmac, Ardron or Allardice?

[Paekakboyz]

@stargazer Beaver might get another call!

Would be better than MMac

With BB not seemingly 100%, a bit worried about the 8-9-10 for the 'canes. Could easily end up with rookies in every position in the spine.

@dingo 8? You're not well. Evans has been awesome all season. And he's only new to the Canes, not to SR.

Not well? Hmmm, been away a while rather than not well. Saw Evans run in a try he shouldn't have but that's about all I know about him, so you've probably made a good call about him " only being new to the 'canes".

Still worried about combinations in the spine.

[Number 10]

According to Chiefs twitter feed, Damian McKenzie will start at 10, Michael Allardice will start at lock.

[Stargazer]

@dingo Nine is defintely the weak spot. I hope BB doesn't aggravate any possible niggle he still has.

[Stargazer]

[Stargazer]

@number-10 I guess that means that MMac will take place on the bench. I wish they'd pick Falcon ahead of him!

[Chris B.]

I'm in a quandary about this game.

I can't work out who it is that will be more helpful to lose.

On the plus side - someone almost certainly will!

Go the Draw!

[dingo]

Looks to me like the Chiefs forwards considerably better due to Cane and BBBR, and the 'canes backline slightly better. Reserves about the same.

[Stargazer]

Huge tackle from Jordie!

[gt12]
