    4 missed tackles for Aoina and 3 for Bower in the first quarter

    Props getting isolated in the defensive line

    @Stargazer if you let Wellington run and offload it’s gonna be a long afternoon.
    Just seems to me Otago’s focus is the Shield ..
    Would to love see Wes Goosen in the NZ sevens program..the man is seriously quick..

    Outstanding try. Canes need to get rid of Prinsep and sign Ben-Nicholas. He’s been massive this year.

    Teariki Ben Nicholas is an All Black number 8 in waiting..his work rate and athleticism is something to behold..
    Be a superb replacement for Read moving forward
    bit of suspect forward pass in there but when your not tackling is just not up to scratch a missed forward pass becomes a mute point..

    Stupid he’s not a Cane. Or the Chiefs should pick him up since The Chief Ben Nicholas should really be playing for the Chiefs. 😉

    Prinsep is such a weird selection.

    @Nepia I know Ben Nicholas got into a fair amount of trouble a few years ago and had to go to court. I remember the Canes CEO Avan Lee not being impressed. Maybe his view on Teariki hasn’t changed.

    The Crusaders should snap him up then.

    @Steven-Harris he played in the Canes development team all year. He was playing like this last year and I was gobsmacked when no Super team signed him.

    But yeah I would prefer Ben Nicholas over Prinsep and Fifita. Who knows the Canes may have signed him, maybe just not announced yet.

    If they do, I would move Gareth Evans to 6.

    @Canes4life that would be a dynamic trio..Ardie, Ben and Gareth..and you still have Du Plessis Kirifi in the wings and Fifita..hard to see Prinseep in that picture ..
