Yeah he started against the Crusaders in pre-season.

He didn't do much to be fair.

Shame that Dan Sinkinson didn't get some game time in the pre-season matches. Keen to see what the Waikato player of the year can do at this level

I'm hoping he has a season like Moorby did for us last year when he gets a chance. Looks to be a solid winger with all the skills in the book so hopefully he gets a crack at some point.

@Canes4life I liking the Canes team named for Saturday, I catually quite like the idea of Lakai runnning at 7. A little worried about 6-2 split, as although I really liked Godfrey's game on Firday, he could be on pretty early. Still bring it on , and I love seeing these young fellas getting a shot!

Two young guns Lakai and Godfrey ahead of tonight’s match.

@Canes4life

Bit confusing wearing a 9 jersey. Both come across well

Thought the canes might catch a break as it's pissing down and cool in Cairns

But no, brownsville is dry and will still be late 20s at kick off

Jesus. But hopefully they have selected a team who don't find the heat too much. Strange place to have a match now. Towards the end of super rugby would be better

I like the heat but not to play rugby in

Canes4life

Currently 28 degrees in Townsville, with these new rules it’s going to be interesting to see how the Canes handle their team over the 80 mins.

antipodean

~70% humidity at 28° so handling might end up favouring the Canes. Reds are short of locks so scrums may determine the game.

Get ready for knock ons with slippery hands

Yeah could be pretty messy, getting the win will be enough for me tonight.

Hopefully a third entertainer coming up, rugby seems fun again.
