[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 550672, member: 24910"] Great preview Nick. One of the big concerns I have about the Canes this season is their backline depth. They are going to have to hope that there top lineup stays fit the whole season, as I'm not convinced the likes of Smylie, Fisilau, Pisi, Marshall, Lee-lo, whoever replaces Jane (Buckman?) are good enough to be regular starters at Super Rugby level. My other major concern is the lack of a quality back-up goal-kicker. If Barrett is off the field they are going to have to rely on Pisi (who is a bit inconsistent), Taylor (who kicks only very occasionally), or Perenara (who hasn't kicked for a year or so, and is just coming back from a serious leg injury...).
