That's the big noodle scratcher for me too Sully. I would start him ahead of CFS without a shadow of a doubt.

But just in case you did what I did as well, Kuridrani is listed at #23. There's just a space between 22 and 23 and I didn't notice him on the team sheet on first read.

I really don't understand it, he was quite good in his starts and has been much better than cfs this year.

Is Hunt injured or completely dropped?
Injured, from the article:

“Karmichael (Hunt) is a victim of his own high standards. He has done a lot of work on the field in the past few weeks to improve all aspects of his game and as a consequence the load with games and travel was too much. He suffered a small adductor strain.

We've said it a few times this year but on paper that looks like such a good team. Internationals everywhere.

Such a big gap at 10. Poor Frisby must be so frustrated.

I'm most interested in seeing the Canes lineup. As Dan has mentioned, if Boyd was targeting any game to rest a few of his AB's then I imagine that the Reds fixture would've been looking good.
The Cheetahs rested their one star player though and we snuck home against them so playing back at Suncorp, coming off a win and the Canes off their first loss, it will be interesting to see how Boyd plays this one.

Anyone know when the Canes usually name their team?

EDIT: Afterthought..... Savea and Perenara are the Canes equal top try scorers and would be likely omissions if they were resting players I'd imagine.

Straight from RG:
“Karmichael (Hunt) is a victim of his own high standards. He has done a lot of work on the field in the past few weeks to improve all aspects of his game and as a consequence the load with games and travel was too much. He suffered a small adductor strain."

Is he admitting here to working the players too hard and being in some way responsible for the injuries?

No Ready did not make his debut last year.

Scrubbuer, Daley dislocated his shoulder today in a collapsed scrum at training. Apparently it took four doctors to put it back in. Perhaps because the first three were being sick in the corner.

Poor bugger cops more injuries at training than on the field. Must be gone for season

That looks pretty full strength to me. The Canes look keen to atone for last week's loss. Our boys need to be up for this. We should be keen to atone for the last 7 losses.
