@foobaNZ yeah I'd say Jordie will be signed up. The silver lining of PUJ leaving is the rise of Sullivan and the pending introduction of Riley Higgins.
If Jordie shifts into the 12 jersey full time, the Canes will be after a few outside backs knowing Goosen is leaving aswell.
Maybe they should go after someone like Chay Fihaki from the Crusaders or Jacob R.K from the Blues.
The Canes also have Harry Godfrey coming through the system so he will hopefully be in the main squad next year aswell.

Holland explains the continued selection of Barrett at 12.

Love is coming back from injury, but looks like he's pretty fit again... 10's his position, so that muppet Holland should've either started him at 10 or put him on the bench instead of JGB, allowing him to come on & play at 1st-five.
It's a bit of a worry we don't have any cover for the midfield if Barrett or Proctor come off injured.

Yes please keep picking the defensive liability that is Savea can’t wait for it to bite us in the ass
Yeah, J.Savea tends to get caught out flat footed far too much in defence.
-
@NZbloke Love is a 10/15, he’s probably played more at 15 through school / NZ under 20s etc so he’s more than capable. If Jordie moves to 12 permanently then I’m more than happy if Love makes that his position moving forward, especially considering Morgan is making a strong case for that 10 jersey.
Savea or Goosen can come into the centres. The fact PUJ is playing club footy for Wainui today pretty much confirms his departure.

@Canes4life what a shame. Where is PUJ going?
-
@canefan to join his bro at the Highlanders is my guess. Otherwise overseas potentially.

I'll be gutted if he is pulling up trees for the Landers next season. Hard to believe he was on the AB fringes not so long ago

Yeah Holland completely destroyed his development. He obviously didn’t see what was so obvious to most of us. Ahh well, I hope he goes down there and plays well for them.

Yup. I'll be happy for him

It would be very disappointing if he went overseas. Fingers crossed he goes to another NZ team.

If true, Highlanders could have a pretty strong backline next year (at full strength):
Fakatava, Gilbert, Nareki, TUJ, PUJ, Solomona, CGB... Tomkinson's leaving right?
-
@kiwi_expat bringing back the Scots College trio that won the National title a few years back would be cool. It’s funny though because I always thought all of them would have played for the Canes together.

Happy to be wrong, but I am reserving judgement on Gilbert for a bit. See how he goes against the better teams first.
