    @FakatavaFuture Brown and co will need to fit them into the squad size allowed for the tour. 27 seems to be the number.

    Depending on how many games you have, the Crusaders have 4 games and I hear maybe 31 going on tour.

    That makes sense. Taking a 3rd hooker and halfback, along with a 5th prop doesn't leave much room for extras. 27 seems a bit light too.

        @FakatavaFuture we were talking about that at training last night, i think a few in those shots have injuries but why travel if they're not even a slight possibility, might be in the "can play if we have enough injuries" camp

          Sio is off to Wales. Open a space up for us to get the under utilised twin from the Hurricanes and have an Umaga-Jensen midfield https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.rugbypass.com/news/huge-attacking-threat-highlanders-sio-tomkinson-signs-for-dragons/

            I would be offering him the 13 jersey for a season. With TUJ at 12, if they could get a first five with a bit of talent (McCluskie?) to finish games, the team could look significantly more dangerous very quickly.

                    @FakatavaFuture i know right! never understood those that just pointed at his try scoring record and ignored how many were crash ball from about 5m out just because smith could pick him out, almost never broke the line further up field, always looked better on the wing for me because he cold just tuck the ball under his arm and hit it up

                      Spoke to someone before who reckons PUJ is leaning towards heading south. Seems he is a bit annoyed with the lack of gametime

                        As he fucking should be, assuming he is a doing the work to be prepared and get selected.

                        If he's not prepared to make the move now, an AB jersey is not going to happen.

                              We will have to replace Matera probably.
                              PUJ would be very handy,we could dump McLeod.

                                Sio is off to Wales. Open a space up for us to get the under utilised twin from the Hurricanes and have an Umaga-Jensen midfield https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.rugbypass.com/news/huge-attacking-threat-highlanders-sio-tomkinson-signs-for-dragons/

                                I would be offering him the 13 jersey for a season. With TUJ at 12, if they could get a first five with a bit of talent (McCluskie?) to finish games, the team could look significantly more dangerous very quickly.

                                Spoke to someone before who reckons PUJ is leaning towards heading south. Seems he is a bit annoyed with the lack of gametime

                                I have heard that rumour from someone ,Flanders as well apparently.

                                Crusaders are south too! They would be handy additions πŸ˜€

                                I heard the Landers but you never know,

                                We will have to replace Matera probably.

                                @Chris razor might continue to promote from within giving Liam Allen a full contract? PUJ should definitely link up with his twin & Flanders could bring some more bay flavor joining Evans, Mikaele-Tu'u, Renton ect πŸ˜‰

                                  No not Liam Allen they by passed him this season for Gardner and Kellow who are younger.

                                  Maybe Razor will look for another LF with some SR experience.
                                  But you never know I heard PUJ to the landers
                                  Flanders looking down south somewhere.

                                        The Landers could always see what Josh Kronfield is up too and promote local.
                                        Oops nah he is a Hawkes Bay boy too .

                                          That would be hilarious. Leaves the canes because some guy who's never proven himself at centre is ahead of him and it's musical chairs at 12...goes to crusaders.
