Crucial

@Canes4life said in Reds vs Hurricanes:

they are going to have to play a loose forward at lock to start the season.

That will even things up in that department then 😉

So no Love & Cameron right? Plus I think Prinsep is out (oh no!)

Any stabs at the 15?

I'd assume Morgan gets the 10 jersey and Moorby at fullback.

By my calculations those players that aren't available for the opening round / the Aus trip are: TJ Perenara, Brett Cameron, Ruben Love, Peter Umaga-Jensen, Tyler Laubscher, Reed Prinsep, Bailyn Sullivan, Jacob Devery, Daniel Sinkinson and Justin Sangster.

Morgan will start at 10, Moorby will start at 15, and Godfrey will be first five/ fullback reserve.

Haha just stating facts. I expect us to beat the Queenslanders even with those players out.

Tyler is have no luck with injuries. 10 out with injuries and some possible starters is not a good way to begin (typical though in recent years). Hopefully most are short term

it will make it harder though. But luckily the team shouldn't be too much weaker. Maybe at 1st 5 (and HB and maybe FB. Even centre) but need to see how Morgan and Cameron goes

Morgan played better for the Canes at the back end of last year than he did for the Lions in NPC. Hope he can find that form from last year because it will be needed in the early rounds.

The word is that the Reds are starting 19 year old Lynagh (son of) at 10.

We may aswell start Harry Godfrey and let two 19 year olds go toe to toe.

Hopefully team drops soon. Don't know who I'm going to bitch about given Reed is confirmed out ;(

If they start Jamie Booth over Cam Roigard you can bitch about that.

Lakai starting at 7, hell yeah. That is a decent side to kick the season off. A 6-2 split on the bench is interesting but not surprising given how hot it's going to be.

That loose forward trio is 🔥

Great news. And some other interesting forward selections in the tight 5.

Apparently Aumua and Lomax on the bench as they are on limited minutes this week due to coming back later than others to pre season.

Ok. Pleased to see iwl starting. And numia too. Unsure about franks though. Blackwell is a given now so what to say. I would have had another lock too not both kirifi and iose

Can't wait to see lakai at 7 though. Future superstar. FAB Lakai.

Overall I like the side. Not the strongest NZ side though.. but I can at least be hopeful for a good start
