Wellington vs Otago
-
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.
-
@Nepia you are joking..he’s not in the Canes...?.I know he played for Kings in Auckland..is a Maori or Cook Island..?

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.
-
@Canes4life mate I am staggered, I would have him in the Blues every day of the week and twice on Sunday
-
@Steven-Harris yeah he is better than Akira Ioane. Has a really high work rate.
-
@Canes4life might pay not to go there..lol
-
@Steven-Harris hahahah I know they both had a big rivalry when they were at school. First one to make the All Blacks wins. 😂

Not sure, definitely Cookie, could be both?
-
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 ..

-
@Stargazer , noooooo..!who would be the Saders number 8 next year..?
-
@Steven-Harris No doubt: Whetu Douglas. I think he's more chance to be a new ABs no. 8 than TB-N in the near future.
-
@Stargazer such a waste of a spot.
