@yeetyaah I'm looking forward to seeing how much PPP has bulked up! His height alone should worry the Canes, though!

Only Ardie would tower above him

-
Haven’t seen anything about how bad nareki’s injury is
-
@bovidae jesus christ at least it isn't my team
-
@yeetyaah Doleman is the ref in Hamilton. They've decided against using Williams as the TMO.
-
@crucial surely Blackwell’s taller aswell.

@Bones was critical of this last season, I hope he’s happy when he sees him.

You’ve just got more sway and clout when it comes to critiquing players obviously.
-
apparently here is a still a chance Nareki will be ok for the weekend, even if hes not hopefully it means his knock isn't too bad

Actually, what I did was post a picture of Arya Stark and the Hound captioned something like "Bones telling Pari Pari he needs to bulk up".
I thought it was vaguely funny.
You apparently didn't.
Which tempts me to look for a photo of Arya and The Mountain!

@bones said in Highlanders v Hurricanes:
@chris-b you did that after saying he was soooo ginormous! He doesn't need to!
I think @MN5 thought it was funny, so that probably tells you enough 😁
Christ you guys remember some random shit from the past on here.
I can’t even remember what I posted this morning.

If I was you I wouldn't want to remember either.

@mn5 teach me to forget
-
im backing a return of Colesy for the come up lasgho boys!
-
good news is Nareki is avaliable....but they seem to have mixed Ioane and hunt up
maybe this will work better than ioane at 12good to see Vahaakolo getting a game but CGB has been good so not sure why hes not starting
where the hell is Alaimalo?
Evans starting? where is shelby-ricket?
not confident
-
So much for Nareki being out

i'd heard there was a chance he'd make it
-
4 different fullbacks in 4 games.
-
A conventional 5:3 split on the bench.
-
@bovidae No need for a 6:2 split against a Hurricanes' pack.
-
@stargazer Parkinson won't need to jump in lineouts either.
-
Alaimalo must be feeling good about his move to Dunedin and the opportunity to play fullback.
-
@gunner yeah, had an ok pre season and then started against the saders...and pretty much not seen since
its like we're telling him, you didn't single handedly beat the best rugby team in the comps history so your out
not a lot of height in that back line
-
@bovidae he'll have to stay away from Ardie then.
-
Ahh well. Looking forward to seeing Freedom carve it up.
-
@gunner has he fallen that far, or makes you wonder if he has off-field issues affecting him?
-

The way we’re playing hardly need to bother with a bench at all
-
Leger starting. Love debut on the bench.

as a non hurricane...that looks good on paper at least
-
A Canes team without Blackwell starting looks so wrong...
-
9-13 a bit lacking for the Canes (unless Laumape comes back into form), but otherwise not bad. Probably their best second row.
Highlanders are using a lot of squad rotation.
-

Negatives: Flanders again on the bench instead of starting; PU-J on the bench and Proctor starting.
Positives: Rakete-Stones getting an opportunity, replacing Armstrong on the bench; no James Blackwell and Julian Savea!
-
I'm probably reading too much in Ruben Love getting the 23 instead of the 22, but this could mean that they're going to shift Jordie to 10 and with Love coming on at fullback. If Love is going to replace Leger, why not give him the 22 jersey?
