Canterbury co-coach Reuben Thorne admitted Allen was unlucky to miss the cut for the 37-man Mitre 10 Cup squad when it was unveiled on Wednesday. “They’ve had a bit more time with it now so things should look a bit sharper.”Tasman named their squad on Tuesday with former Crusaders and Tasman utility back Kieron Fonotia a feature among the reserves bench. Canterbury, who were eliminated in the premiership semi-finals by eventual runners-up Wellington, open their campaign against North Harbour at Albany next Friday night.
