      @Tim Patty T when receiving his award payed homage to both Tom Robinson and Josh Goodhue as part of the senior leadership who keep the players striving both on and off the field with their work ethic especially in an around training and keeping the spirt strong within the group..Goodhue has re signed with the Blues..

          “It would be quite nice if the Blues gave us a cheque for the expenditure we’ve occurred, that would be quite nice,’’ he quipped.

          It would be quite nice if the Blues got a cheque for every player coming through their region that plays elsewhere. Around a third of M10 players I believe.

          It would also be nice if offshore teams had to pay NZ to take players ... but down that path can lie madness

              His decision raised eyebrows

              So his decision was a joke?

                  @KiwiMurph this was pretty funny too

                  “We gave him every opportunity to stay, but he wasn't willing to stay here and compete, and he's taken another path.’’ Robertson said.

                  no chance of course that he wanted to grow his game in a new environment. If he makes the ABs, I'll chortle quietly to myself.

                  So many years of getting the Kane of the Barretts, and wrecking 10s. Redemption y'all.

                      @Chris I hope he goes really well. It's a big call coming north, and leaving the Crusaders.

                        Funny how the anti Crusader brigade are focusing on one line at the end of the article and are ignoring the rest of the quotes that show the Crudaders handling his decision well, publicly at least.

                                      Good to see he has re-signed. Has stepped up his game and aggression this year.
