Capped for Japan? Not interested 'kiwi boy'

@Machpants He said a stint in Super Rugby so I see no reason why he can't be thrown in with either the Force, Landers or Moana Pasifika.

Played well against ABs I seem to recall.

I'd take him at the Canes, I mean we signed Ben Grant who's an Aussie.

Even if he moved next season he wouldn't be eligible for the ABs until he's 26. Seems like a big call for the kid, if he wanted to be in the mix you'd think he'd have headed back already

[Canes4life]

@canefan I feel like 26 is still very young for a lock. It's not like he's an outside back.

With his bloodlines he should be able to make the jump. I guess he could play into his early 30s easily

And I'm of the same opinion of that signing.

He would be a good addition to Super Rugby.

He's over 2m so he's too tall.

[Canes4life]

@Yeetyaah correct if Holland was coaching. Laidlaw seems to like locks in proportion to what the normal lock is, hence the signing of Ben Grant.

Solomone Funaki signs with Dragons

Good time to move on with Lotu Inisi overtaking him.

Rising Canterbury star Blair Murray is piquing the interest of the Welsh regions.

The 22-year-old, who can play at outside-half and in the back-three, is Welsh-qualified courtesy of his mother and his representatives have made contact with Wales' professional sides to see if they would be interested in acquiring his services. Murray is a part of the wider Crusaders squad but has played the majority of his rugby for Canterbury in the Bunnings NPC.

Aiden Morgan in talks with Ulster apparently.

[Canes4life]

@family-man I think he knows the writing is on the wall with Godfrey snapping at his heals.
