Spot on.
He's stopped saying 'canes by plenty' in his predictions, since Holland took over!

@crucial he won the ball, went over and popped it up
Cheers. Was hard to tell and it just looked weird

It derserve another try, but Jordie at 12 didn't really work in this game.
Holland did say that JB will be getting an extended period at 12, but you never know with him.
Really impressed with Lord when he came on but McWhannell also played well until he had to leave the field, and Ah Kuoi was busy too.
A huge tackle by Jacobson to stop a line break and potential try near the end.
I don't think that either team will be that happy with their performance, and both had to suffer from some Pickerill puzzlers.
I love that Lord had a huge grin on his mug, everytime he was a pest at the breakdown, he loves it

He looks like a project that will pay dividends.

He looks a sizeable unit in the flesh although I could only compare him to Canes locks đŸ˜†

No one seemed to be playing in anything like a normal formation. JGB was hardly seen at first receiver/10. I couldn't figure it. He his the line harder than most, and his defence was good too
Yep that’s what I saw from behind them. Jordie was everywhere but in the centres in attack and the back line was often a mess of forwards.

Haha, Jason Holland just said he thought JGB was "solid" today.
In fairness no coach is going to rip a player on tv like that.

Solid Gold Shit.
That’s unfair actually, he did stuff all except some wonky low aimless kicks.

Narawa is so much better than Trask it isn't funny.
And they take him off.
Cripes. For Clayton's pet Tiatia.
Narawa didn't look 100% as he was laboured making the run before being substituted. I would still like to see Stevenson given a go at the back.

Fuck Jason Holland. And fuck the person who gave him the job. I bet he won't even promise to change the culture

Why not? He changes everything else each week

Have just finished watching the game after house shopping all day, Chiefs looked like well deserved winners even after that late Hurricanes flurry, so well played.
The Hurricanes just look like a team that doesn't really know what kind of game they want to play. Their attack also seems to break down too easily after multiple phases but I guess what do you expect when the team is completely different every week.
I don't mind Jordie at 12 but I feel he needs a bigger body outside him (looking at you PUJ) who can get over the gain line. We've got far too many players in this team that crash the ball up but literally stop when they hit the defensive line (Prinsep, Blackwell, Proctor) and it just prevents the Canes from building pressure.
Ah well, another week and another loss. I'm really not surprised. Are we even going to make the top 8 this year lol?
