Bugger. Blues need to bite the bullet and go with Perofeta at 10 next year (if he stays fit).
Personally id just say fuck it and give Harry Plummer a Blues contract. Get him in the environment.
@kiwimurph Agreed. Looks like we'll have Perofeta/Gatland then to start off with.
-
Josh Ioane from the Otago team is tidy. Beaver is at a lose end. I suppose that Volavola will be considered too.
Who is the better of the two Northland players?
@tim neither of our 10s look upto Super Rugby, Hawkins had a stint with the Rebels in 2016 and is a good solid 10 (brave defender in the mould of Holwell) and IMO M10 Cup is his ceiling, Breen showed promise when he came North, was in Blues dev side but has failed to kick on, not helped by our chopping and changing 10s.

@taniwharugby if Hawkins had a decent kicking game he'd up his value. Except he fires off line kicks like the last bit of water dribbling out of a hose!

The Hurricanes have signed Jackson Garden-Bachop for two years.

It's interesting that the Rebels let him go; he was on a two-year contract, so had another year to go. I guess, with their new coach coming from the Force, he may bring a first-five with him from Perth?

Very good signing. (And West will be concerned). He was a big improver this year so will watch with interest how he goes.

@stargazer Nice to see him returning to the fold
-
Do the Crusaders still have Leon Fukofuka? Is he even still in NZ, as I can't recall seeing him for Auckland this season. If he's still on the books then there's a logjam after Hall and Drummond consisting of Stratton, Enari and Fukofuka and surely someone will sign elsewhere.
-
Leon Fukofuka played just the once for Auckland in the Mitre 10 Cup - coming on as a sub v Northland in the second round. Hasn't appeared since.
You god damned sadist.
