      So, we need a loosehead (Hodgman) and tighthead (Laulala) replacement, and maybe a replacement for James Lay as well. Eklund and Renata might be on the fringe too. Any whispers about signings? Ahio next in line?

              @Tim

              I think the Crusaders are letting Brewis go because of to many injuries and keeping Calder or Sykes-Martin

              Not sure on why with Akira but it is just a rumour.

                  @Tim isn’t he another player with a netball girlfriend? Maybe it’s just related to her not being in Auckland?

                            Parsons mentioned Jacob Pierce as one of the best scrumaging locks he's played with. Missed opportunity!
