    @labcat not sure as Jordie has already said his favourite position is 15. I’d imagine Umaga-Jensen will shift in to 12 and develop a combination with Proctor at 13 goi forward.

    You really do still dream, don't you?

    Your coaches will probably move JGB out one instead.

      Might as well do it now.

      Laumape has been inconsistent, use him off the bench in SR TT

        @crucial I’d prefer a Jordie & Umaga-Jensen pairing but the obvious combo would be Umaga-Jensen-Proctor considering they kept swapping out for one another during SRA

          Time for Jordie to move into twelve?

                  Anyone else think the Canes will do just about everything to get TJP in the squad? Like pulling a back* (a forward would be stretching it a bit) only at the slightest hint of a (minor) injury?

                  * probably not a Wellington player

                    @stargazer 100%, they won't be spending loads of $$$ just to have him sitting in the stands.

                                @yeetyaah That might be quite a good signing for the Canes if Owen's still got enough enough gas in the tank to back Lomax up for 20-30 minutes off the bench.

                                  Yeah I'd say it's a good signing.

                                    @chris-b Did they also mention whether he's going to be forced on Hawke's Bay for NPC, just like his brother?

                                    Edit: Who is he replacing at the Canes? The only THs are Tyrel Lomax (signed 'til 2023) and Alex Fidow (2022), while Pouri Rakete-Stones (2021) can play at both sides. I've only seen Fraser Armstrong (2021) and Alex Numia (2021) at LH. Don't know about Tevita Mafileo (2022); maybe he can play at both, although usually at LH?

                                        Another really good signing for the Cane's. Even if it's just for his experience and work ethic it'll be worth it.
