Is that the Reds third string halves combo?

I know Kalani Thomas has been in Wallaby squads but I would say Werchon is a better 9. He's been impressive

Agreed on 10 though. Shame that Carter Gordon is injured this week.

Which Kiwi team is going to nab Higgins? The Blues to replace Lam seems most likely.

Landers will be after him as well as a centre. No doubt the Crusaders will also be sniffing around.

They do need to replace Ennor and McLeod,
Cooper Roberts has signed , Still a gap there.

Who’s the other young gun down your way? Tony Bell is it? Has he signed?

Yeah he’s probably been the form Aussie 10 and one of the form 10s in the comp. I’m glad he’s out haha

Yes he Toby Bell has signed, Cooper Roberts who has signed is the one with big Wraps on him.

@Canes4life I worry that Higgins is off to the NH probably Scotland. He is off contract this year and hasn’t re-signed with the Canes.

@SecFid can either Tuipulotu or Jones play in the outside backs? 1 of them would be made too

I’m expecting a Higgins leaving announcement any week now.

Just spoken to a contact. He has confirmed Higgins definitely isn’t injured and won’t be on the injured list the Canes put out. I’m working to find out if there is more to the story or if it’s just a case of Rova being fit and training better. Something is definitely a bit fishy from the outside looking in

Did you end up digging any info up on this?

Riley Higgins doesn't leave, he gives the place he was permission to remain.

Harry Godfrey doing sprints with Harkin and Punivai on the sideline atm. Looking at Godfrey, he definitely looks like he’ll be back this season. Looks in great nick.

Lomax withdrawn due to injury, Mafileo to start.

I'll feel a lot better if the Hurricanes beat the Reds by 50.

Cheers Roigard

Nice try. Great continuity again.

And a quality reply. Good injection from the QLD fullback.

Nice outside break by Moorby to set up the Canes try. It won’t happen at the Canes but I wonder if his future is in the midfield? Not sure he’ll be a starter for much longer in the back three

What is going on with that halfback's hair? Has he made his hair into a Davy Crockett hat?

Good to hear the ref blow a ruck penalty, rather than yelling "leave it".

Some big hits coming in from the Reds.
