@Duluth I think Parkinson would be right up there as forward signing...If you took out the locks were taken to the RWC , I reckon he’s close to next cab off the rack ..he’s a very big man, and a great line out option, he’s an All Black in waiting in my book, and like you say he has a great work rate , to me that puts him in the big fish category..
Any idea on the fitness of Josh Goodhue?
Tuipulotu, GCT, Wardlaw are confirmed.
Pierce is very likely as Coventry seemed to pick him as a long term option last season and he followed that with a good NPC.
Pretty sure another lock has signed
Robinson can cover lock too..
It's hard to a space for Goodhue?

@Duluth not too sure on the fitness of Goodhue , but his constant head knocks and the fact he picks up injuries are a real concern..I do like the look of Jacob Pierce..looks a real athlete, and if anybody knows anything about locks Coventry will know..
And yes Robinson can cover lock..
When are these squads named...? -

Not sure. There’s been a few dates posted on tsf
At least a week away but less than two weeks seems to be the consensus

I would not like to see Robinson start a game at lock. He does not like the tight work. He's just a six IMO.
@cgrant he can play tight, the Blues just played him in the wide channels.
Yeah Josh's head is a concern, when he came back 2 or 3 rounds to go I thought it was wrong, should just let him get completely right.
-
There will be a few teams after Parkinson, the Chiefs being another, but you would have to think the Highlanders would be keen to keep him.
-
Tumua Manu is training at the same gym as Blake Gibson, Akira Ioane, and Dan Kirkpatrick, so hopefully he's with the Blues.

@Duluth
Just on Josh Goodhue , he is recovering from a shoulder injury , and should be right for the start of 2020 season .
Apparently, now I don’t know how correct this information is , he may have signed a 2 year deal before the start of the 2019 season ..Sam Caird will be used as injury cover and will probably be part of the wider training squad for the Blues ..
Jordon Hyland has also been signed by the Blues for the 2020 season ..did not see this one coming..

@Tim full squad
@Steven-Harris Midfield or wing?
-
I assume he's a replacement for Clarke then? Not a huge fan of Hyland and I don't know why we re-singed Duffie either. 2 strange signings.
