    @stargazer wouldn't be surprised one bit if Riley Higgins gets a contract if he performs in the NPC.

    Holland's should resign if we lose this game, coming bottom of both SRA and SRTT is not acceptable. The man is a useless tool, competitively, who speaks platitudes but achieves nothing. I'm so pissed about the crap tactics, selections, and long term development/signings of the canes.

    @machpants to be fair, he should never have been given the role. More deserving coaches out there tbh.

    Circumstances. Plumtree moves to the ABs so a new coach is needed. The other option was to bring in a head coach to work with the contracted assistants.

    @bovidae They could have given Holland the reigns for 2020 and then interviewed a new coach for 2021. Someone like Clayton McMillian would have been better suited and probably deserved it more. He took the Wellington Under 19s to the title and has done well with Marist St Pats, Bay of Plenty and other teams over the years so deserved that step up to Super level. Thankfully the Chiefs gave him a shot and he's been pretty bloody good for them so far.

    The pain won't just be ours for long though, Razor wants Holland in his AB setup when he eventually gets the gig so the jokes on everyone else when Simple Jack starts selecting James Blackwell instead of Sam Whitelock.

    @canes4life Giving Holland a new contract is an entirely different matter, and I agree with you. I was just responding to the comment by @Crucial.

    The other problem is that a new coach usually wants to bring in their own coaching team which might mean having to pay out the existing assistant coaches if they aren't wanted. That can get messy and expensive.

    @bovidae this is true, however they all got their contracts extended at the same time didn't they? Would have been the perfect time to re-set what has been a hopeless couple of years.

    D. Larsen does not fall into that category!

    I missed the build-up from Sky for this game. Did they confirm that Toala is on the bench?

    That was easy - Laumape in after a good ball

    Good line but not much tackling there
