    I think we are mostly happy with the teams each week now as we've dropped a lot of dead wood, so even if there is a bit of a merry go round it's still quality players.

    Love how Franks is going off the bench too.

    Can't take the Drua lightly or we'll get cooked. Looking forward to this should be plenty of running footy.

    So many times Jordie's 'big boot' ends up in a poor kick.

    Canes should be a little concerned about the work they are being asked to do in defence.

    Drua have attempted 9 tackles, Canes attempted 61. That could hurt late in the game

    I don't understand how he constantly gets selected ahead of the Manawatu loosies

    The stats are wrong

    He's frustratingly inconsistent. Some weeks he is really good.

    I expected he'd have matured into a player that was making a case for higher honours.

    @antipodean In previous years, he didn't get much game time.

    Because he couldn't play more than 50 minutes at Super level without cramping up.

    @Toddy No, he didn't get game time because Reed Princep wasn't injured.

    @Stargazer They had to play Princep as Flanders couldn't play more than 50 minutes. So was more suited to the bench.

    @Toddy No, that's plainly not true. They always picked Princep, no matter what. He's the coach's pet.

    The Drua are just standing on our side of the ruck and the ref is just ignoring it. They are impeding Roigard every single time he tries to get it out.
