Re: SR 2020: Hurricanes V Sharks Match Thread
I’d be happy if they pulled David Howell off the couch Ridiculous call. Sopoaga was a more than capable #2 who won the All Blacks a test as the starting 10 at Ellis Park. Yeah, not meaning over Soapy. Rather Howell than what we have now. Does Chase Tiatia play 10? Anyway, hopefully JGB grows into t...

Re: SR 2020: Hurricanes V Sharks Match Thread
I wouldn't be surprised if Sopoaga returned from a disappointing stint at Wasps to become the new Canes 10. I suspect he would be a much happier man. He's a Wellington boy after all. I think they tried to get him back, but Wasps wouldn't release him. I'm not sure how hard they tried, whether they w...

Re: SR 2020: Hurricanes V Sharks Match Thread
How can the Hurricanes go into the season without a 10?
Lost an AB 10 and didn’t bother replacing him.
Cruden returning. Sopoaga wasted overseas.
Quade Cooper would have been better than what we have.
