    He'd be a good bench option

      Moana seems more logical. Marquee player, playing with his brother.

        Why do you ask? Have you heard otherwise or just stirring the pot…

                    Aside from Akira Ioane, it seems that Tangitau and Vikena are leaving. Barrett is returning. Other possibilities to leave are Heem and Lay. Any ideas on replacements?

                        Heem to be re-signed then as a result?

                          Lol this came up on IG feed, thought the Blues thread would enjoy this despite him obviously playing for the Canes. So funny seeing Telea with a head of hair.

                            In terms of signings for next year, what happened to Payton Spencer? Is he in with a shout or has he aligned himself with the NZ sevens programme?

                                  So, who plays 6 next year? That's a huge hole to fill.

                                          @cgrant Suafoa probably suits Cotter's style of play more, but at the same time, I like what Segner brings but he isn't as strong in the contact areas as others.
