He was on the bench last week too.

He was part of that strange sub at the 70th minute when Funaki had to go to wing

@Duluth said in Canterbury v Auckland:

Anyone know much about Topeni?

Marist Captain out of Dilworth school. When he was named in the squad I went back and watched two Marist games on Auckland.TV to check him out. He is a chunky blindside not very tall. In those games he carried well, was noticeably aggressive and put in several Jerry Collins level big hits.

Here is a video of him scoring in the Gallaher Shield Final -

What happened to the young Canterbury fullback that debuted at the end of last season and looked a real talent?

@tubbyj He got injured playing club footy a couple of months ago. From memory it was an ACL. Not 100% on that but I'm not expecting to see him this season.

Struggling to understand how Canterbury let Shearer go and then select the number 2 halfback from Ta$man whom from what i have seen is not the best

Superb footy by Auckland. Getting the ball wide is killing Canterbury. Great skills in this weather.

The scrum law is an arse and needs to be reviewed
As far as i am concerned once you get an intial shove and regardless of it screwing your the dominant scrum
