When you’re good at scoring tries due to good players inside you then the Crusaders make prefect sense, plus then he’s only an injury or two away from an AB spot (I mean other players getting injured, not the Ennor method of being selected for the ABs).
-
I don't agree with Cully that Naholo has been the most dangerous outside back in the NPC. He's got a couple of teammates who have looked even more dangerous. The problem with Kini is, like his brother, he seems to always get injured.
-
@gt12 think blues got enough outside backs without fihaki he wouldn't get any game time mayb chiefs tho

who do the Blues have in their backs?
The Crusaders have 7 fucking All Blacks in their backs alone. Then another guy who was bloody good this year.

the Crusaders top 23 would win a lot of tests.
-
@chris Ala'alatoa is a big loss, but damn the rest of that pack is good.
Blues need some locks.

Yep the Blues weak point lock maybe .
Dunshea and Stange bench options along with Bower,Williams,Makalio,Havilli
makes the pack look strong. -

@chris think they chasing england test lock itoje
Good pickup if they can pull it off.
-
@stargazer well quite. It's a discussion board, and discussions are fluid
-
Don't really get why Naholo has gone to the Crusaders. Don't think he will see much game time there. With Lester, Bridge, Reece, Jordan and Ennor all capable of playing wing I don't think he will see many minutes VS the Highlanders where he could have competed for a starting position.

-
@canes4life Unless the Highlanders already decided to sign his brother ...
@stargazer that's true. Probably had room for both though.
-
the chat was we were trying for both...but maybe not true, id say more likely playing for the legendary Crusaders being more attractive is a more obvious reason, young bloke are always full of confidence they can prove themselves and displace an incumbent
