@bovidae could be? With Fifita most likely moving on I feel that Caleb Delany is probably more of a chance of getting that spot ahead of Plumtree. Unless his old man pulls a few strings.

Isn’t Plumtree more of a lock then 6

@duluth Hope it isn't Gibson, I don't rate him too highly. Who would he replace anyway? Kirifi and Iose have signed on and Ardie is not far away from what I'm hearing. Evans can also cover 7 if he signs on.
I was thinking the same there’s not exactly a lot of room unless possibly covering maybe 6
@mikey07 I'd rather them sign TK Howden over signing Gisbson as a 6 - he's younger but he stood out for the Under 20s and he could be one to keep an out for over the next few years.

@canes4life surely he has to be on the Radar

I have a sneaking suspicion it’s Blake Gibson coming to the Canes just the rumours I’m hearing..of course is rather it not be him
@mikey07 can’t see it happening. We’ve already got Iose and Kirifi and I will be annoyed if we sign him over Evans. Unless Savea shocks everyone and decides not to re-sign.
-
Openside flanker Gibson, meanwhile, is heading to another New Zealand franchise, having been forced out of the matchday 23 by the likes of Dalton Papalii, Tom Robinson, Akira Ioane and Hoskins Sotutu..

@canes4life conspiracy theory time maybe Ardie is going to Moana Pacific

@tim With the loosies that the Canes already have, I can hardly see him make the Canes' 23.
Although, with this coaching staff, you never know.

@stargazer our top three loosies in my view are Flanders, Savea & Evans and then Brayden Iose as I really enjoyed what he offered from the bench this year. Two of those guys haven’t signed on yet though so who knows. I just can’t see Ardie leaving
-
Strange signing is Gibson imo, unless someone is leaving?

@african-monkey Maybe a replacement for Boshier? He's better than Karpik, even after all the injuries.

@african-monkey that’s the only way he gets a contract IMO. I wonder how accurate this Gibson source is? Seems like a very odd signing, but I wouldn’t count it out with the selections we’ve made previously.

@tim I hope so but haven’t seen anything official.

That's debatable I'd say. Plus, he is injured all the time.
