    @Stargazer said in 2021 Hurricanes:

    I wonder whether they've signed him as an outside back or a midfielder?

    Prop?

    @Canes4life said in 2021 Hurricanes:

    He’s proven already this year that he still has tits for hands, no pace whatsoever and a tendency to seagull on the wing waiting for the ball to come his way.

    Definitely prop then.

    @canefan yeah kinda downgraded to a 12 seater van, hes proven himself in the last couple of games he leads well. yeah dropped a ball but his presence on and off the field is uplifting for the team esp the younger lot

    2021 the bus will put a turbo in his 12 seater van..

    Why would you even want the 2015 Bus? He was good in one game against France. Pre 2015 Bus is the one you want.

    To repeat my comment from the other thread - NZ rugby is odd sometimes.

    I was only thinking about that QF, I agree the rest of his body of work was meh that year

    @canefan refreshing to see a Canes fan talk about how average he is. People on Facebook are getting feral about how good he is. Rose tinted glasses really are on today.

    @Yeetyaah He barely held his position in the match day 23 for the Wellington Lions much less the Hurricanes the last season he was here before he departed. Someone with a major connection to a celestial power must have worked wonders if his form has got any better to warrant selection at Super Rugby level since those days.

    His form this year is strikingly similar to how he was in his first year of super rugby. If he has the same level of improvement next year as he did then, all good!

    I don't see him getting much time, at least I hope we don't have to depend on him if injuries strike!!

    @Yeetyaah I really had high hopes with Holland but his signings are just beyond ridiculous signing a 30 year old Wing who’s form dropped off after 2015, extending a 5’4 locks contract who really is not up to standard, if us armchair selectors can see it why can’t he.

    Not at all. He's had his good patches, some exceptional, but mostly nothing to pick him for super rugby. Mitre 10 looks his current level tops

    @mikey07 If I were a Canes fan, I'd rather have Patafilo.
