                It used to be the Crusaders that hoarded AB props, then it was the Chiefs for a few years, and now it's the Blues. Not a criticism, just stating a fact.

                    You've had the best back 3 in the comp frequently ... you can't get both at the same time 🙂

                        I missed the Laulala move this week. So the Blues have become a Super version of the Ta$man Invitational XV under Leon ... you Blues fans should start worrying, TJ is going to be fluffing you like crazy now.

                          Have just caught up with a couple of the North Harbour management pre kick off at the Northland game in Whangarei ,Both Sione Mafileo and Bryn Gatland have signed with the chiefs .
                          Nic Mayhew is in discussions with the Blues and unbelievably Jacob Pierce does not have a full contact with the Blues..

                            So Mafileo is a direct swap with Laulala.

                              @Bovidae yes from what I believe ..tell you what Pierce would be a superb pick up

                                Laulala > Mafileo
                                Mafileo great in the scrums but struggles around the field

                                Mayhew would be a good signing. Hugely underrated.

                                Pierce - well hopefully it's still at the negotiating phase. He's already a far better player than Goodhue and GCT

                                  @Duluth the word is with Pierce , he’s had some battles to overcome and has finally addressed them , can’t say to much this forum , but it’s more than Rugby in the bigger scheme of things , both GTC and Goodhue have got 2 more years left on their contracts ..

                                    @Steven-Harris I guess someone had to make way once we signed Darry and Pierce was the unlucky guy.

                                      I'd assume that Renata will be gone if Mayhew signs?

                                        @African-Monkey correct ..Mayhew has been impressing many..the strange nature of the season saw many super teams re sign many in their their rosters unknowing where COVID would take us ..so with most of the squads having filled 80% of their rosters .

                                          @Steven-Harris On the radio last week Parsons was speaking as though Renata would be there next year (praising him along with the 4 all black props he gets to scrum with next season). Mayhew is mostly a loosehead isn't he? Maybe he replaces Lindenmuth?
