@Canes4life said in Crusaders 2024:

@george33 interesting the Canes went after him, maybe looking at a replacement for PUJ.

Wouldn't haven't made proctor too happy. Or Barrett Blues surely would be the best fit

[Canes4life]

@Winger we don’t need Goodhue, I’d rather us spend our energy looking for a couple of big locks and another good hooker.

[taniwharugby]

@Winger possibly rumours of a move north, particularly at NPC and I guess the feel was maybe then the Blues?

Now he's made the ABs, not sure it makes much difference which NPC side he signs for.

[SBW1]

@Winger Is PUJ going to the Landers to be with his twin brother?

That's what the rumour from TSF is.

[Mr Fish]

Goodhue has an offer on the table from Castres but hasn't put pen to paper yet.

[george33]

@Winger Did here that he had another franchise with offer on table and he was seriously considering the offer, but obviously he has decided to stay at crusaders

[SBW1]

[SouthernMann]

What chance Joe Brial makes it next year? Or will he be heading back across the Ta$man?

@chchfanatic Great news, surely must be his last season. I was really happy having him onboard, he never lets us down.

[chchfanatic]

@SBW1 he played really well in the final. Great team man too. He said Hotham will be number 1 next year.

[george33]

Good pick up for Moana Pacifica with Sione Havilli Talitui heading there

That won't surprise me - but, Drummie will be 30 next year, so we may end up needing two new halfbacks in 2025.

Chapman might be one? He's a good player, but very small.

[Canes4life]

@Chris-B I thought Chapman was really good in that game against the Canes. For his debut he hardly put a foot wrong. Definitely worse halfbacks running around.
