        Does this mean no ABs in any of the teams this weekend? Playing in Rd 1 without any gametime doesn't seem to be a sensible move.

          Gotta play your first game at some time, I guess they won't be starting. I don't think the intensity jump will be too much for an ab, pre season or first game of the round

            Does make you wonder what the point of these games is when you play so many guys unlikely to make squads when the comp starts

                8 Cullen Grace

                Seems like they are going to keep using Grace as a specialist 8. He looks much more like a 6 to me

                  That first half side should demolish the Canes one. Even with Bridge starting. 😉

                    Scratch what I said above about the ABs. The Canes don't have any of their 3 contracted hookers involved.

                      Dude, the canes have Blackwell as captain. That's got to be worth a few dozen points! Canes by a million!

                        The Canes should be better in the second half.

                          @machpants. Better choice than Kirifi in my opinion. Who else then? I presume Prinsep in second half when Crusaders play their subs.

                            @arhs I feel like Flanders has future captain written all over him but probably needs a few more games under the belt before he pushes for that title.

                            I'd say either Prinsep or Savea for the second half.

                              Have to say I personally pretty happy to see Booth starting. Anyone know if game streamed?

                                I understand it is being played in Arrowtown. If so the options for a camera would depend on them putting up a structure. The clubrooms are very close to the sideline so not much of an angle to work with and not on halfway anyway. Maybe some scaff in the carpark?

                                      I don't know from which account @Duluth has posted the link, but the game will (also?) be streamed on the Sky Next YouTube Channel (not set to private):

                                          These commentators have botched about four names already and the game has barely started.

                                          I think one of them is Hamish Bidwell. 🤮

                                            Looks like Love isn’t there, hopefully he isn’t injured.

                                                Canes score in the way of Rayasi in the corner. Canes scrum going well, Rakete-Stones and Tevita Mafileo have been impressive.

                                                                  Crusaders 12-5 try to Williams,conversion missed by Burke.

                                                                  Abraham Pole, I believe. Not Williams.

                                                                  Williams I think

                                                                  Williams was the much bigger guy in the 3 jersey standing over him after he scored. Number 1 scored (but not Moody - his replacement). Having double up numbers in preseason games is stupid and confusing.
