@Windows97 can't see that being a problem.
New coach. New WC cycle. And, a few new players too I'd imagine.

I saw Sullivan carrying the drinks. Is he available now?
I like your team Canes4life, although I would think they'll play Iose.
Cameron has done enough for me. I know he's been a bit criticised here but I'm more than happy with someone who gets us around the paddock like he does.
Can excuse some inaccuracy given the weather but we certainly don't need to be as rushed. Grind em down.
Struggling to fathom Holland would have defenders to be honest. There was obviously something there, as I'm sure Razor wouldn't have wanted him otherwise, but in terms of player management and selections, I'm so happy to see the back of him.
@canefan to be fair to PUJ, the season after he made the ABs, Holland would sporadically pick him for the Canes for whatever reason. He'd play well one week then be dropped. Had to weigh on the guy.
@Mr-Fish Holland would have started Morgan, I'm pretty confident of that.
Cameron is far and away the right call. Not flashy but gets the team around the paddock and kicks his goals.
@mariner4life it's our year.
I gotta say the most enjoyable thing about this season is the selections. Long may it continue.
Looking at those 23s the Canes should edge this, particularly at home. Should be a cracker.
@Canes4life normally the best coaches were either middle of the road players or not players at all, so on that basis, it's a good group!
(Not counting CJ as middle of the road - just the others).
@Canes4life christ can you imagine if we end up with Parapara for the Canes too. Good lord.
@Kiwiwomble Lol 100%. Every time George posts my brain hurts trying to decipher what he's saying.
@george33 you'd have Christie starting over Roigard next year? And Jordie back to full back?
Looking at the squads I think Chiefs are favourites. I've probably swap the Canes and Blues too in those odds.
McClutchie is unlucky, you'd have to think if Morgan wasn't under contract he'd have got a spot.
Cameron with Godfrey or McClutchie on the pine is a lot more compelling.
Ardie. I really hope he does get the Cup next time. Too good a player not to have one on his CV.
@george33 take your 3 best players out and it'll be a long season? Well, yea. Thanks for that observation.
PUJ must be on the move? He's a long term Cane so you'd think they'd have announced it by now if he was staying.
Confirmed on Canes Facebook:
Rayasi
Devery
Naholo
Rakete-Stones
O'Reilly
Ngani Punivai
Judd
None. Fuck em!
@Machpants yea the hard part about this one is we let it slip. We had the momentum, and the opportunities, but didn't take them. It's more deflating than 2019 where I thought we were dominated start to finish.
Even with everything seemingly going against us we still had multiple chances to win.
I hope in this cycle we can resolve this issue and win the last quarter of games again.
