Mckenzie also for Plummer. Lisati-Harris starting for Funaki.
You would think someone would have told Dewar as he continued to say it was Nock and Plummer playing.
Tuipulotu certainly looks trimmer and more explosive.
-
@Stargazer Morgan in the left corner after some forward drives at the line.

Hope Harry Godfrey is still in one piece after the Bus hit him.
I think it was Naiduki that hit him, Savea was waiting for the ball outside Godfrey.

Is that him in the blue 5 jersey?

Comms are calling Blues HB Nock but it is Lisati-Harris still.

quite a few changes in the Hurricanes team now. Braydon Iose has replaced Flanders at the back of the scrum. Is that Lakai at openside? Roigard, Higgins on as well.
Howden playing lock, Prinsep at 6, Lakai at openside, Iose at 8, Roigard at 9, Cameron at 10, Higgins at 12.
Jeez we are in trouble if Aumua and Coles get injured. The hooker on atm looks so far out of his depthZ
-
@Canes4life I think both Higgins brothers are on? It's confusing because some forwards subs are wearing low numbers (not as listed).

Yeah it’s all over the place aye.

@Higgins said in Preseason: Blues v Hurricanes:
@Bovidae Thanks, he certainly galloped up the field a couple of times. Must be the price of food up in Japan causing him to cut back a bit on fatty things!
It was a deliberate plan by Hansen while he was playing for Toyota Verblitz.
-
R Higgins is looking classy, every time he touches the ball he makes in roads.
-
Where did the Hurricanes get this hooker from? He’s made three crucial errors so far. Hope he isn’t anywhere near the side when the actual season kicks off.

@Canes4life Is it Hame Faiava former Blues player 2017 , 62 games for Benatton and had 5 tests for Italy. Signed for Worcester then lost his job when they folded.

Former U20 player who looked good at that level, but never quite kicked on. He's wandered around a few different low-level leagues, and found his way back here, it seems. I doubt he'll ever get a(nother) start at this level
