    @foobaNZ Bloody good 9 feeding him the ball, but not exactly experienced , as also no Jordie outside him at 12. Pretty sure they will take all into considerstion (and see who is available etc) before making decision anyway.

    @Dan54 who would you be picking at 10?

      @Dan54 Roigard is has had multiple NPC and Super campaigns, as well as AB caps, and, a World Cup cycle.

      I feel like I'm talking to Jason Holland. Should we get JGB out of his Moana contract? Maybe see if Prinsep is keen to come back from the Force?

      I understand not throwing a 10 right into the deep end, but, man, I really think you're being overly conservative. If the goal is to win a title you ain't gonna win it with mid tier players. What's the point?

        @foobaNZ Genuinely no idea who is on the market, I suspect they may run Love there a bit, or even McLutchie (but think he's contracted to MLR) . I certainly not against Godfrey who looks good at times though generally at 15 at higher level.
        Mate I just watched a season of Crusaders imploding and one of big probloems seemed to be no 10 that has the experience to run things when things went bad.I really hope one of the ones we have will be good !
        Lol add to that mate, haven't really thought too much on super at this stage, I still into NPC and got at least one more game to go to at New Plymouth!

          My Two cents (for what it’s worth)
          Think Brasch and Poplali’i from Counties would be good pick ups same with Banks from Harbour.
          TJ Clarke deserves a contract and would’ve said the same with Preston had the Canes not shit the bed and let him go.

            @mikey07 thought Brash would be a good pick up, but as it stands no side has shown interest, that's from the coach.

              Often it comes down to timing and which positions need filling. Accepting a WTG spot is a foot in the door, but doesn't pay much.

                I think Brash would be a good sevens player. Not a huge guy, fit and fast.

                  Preston would be third at the Hurricanes behind Roigard and Vijoen. Maybe Preston thinks he has a better shot at getting infront of Drummond.

                        Adam Lennox would be a good pickup if another team hasn't grabbed him already.

                          @Canes4life damn that's a good pick up for them. We'd have been very well served with Roigard, Viljeon and Preston. Guess we can't be too greedy.

                            As Bovidae mentioned above I’d be happy with Adam Lennox. I’m sure we’ll get a solid third halfback from somewhere.

                                @BerhamporeNinja agreed - but he's not confirmed as signed though is he?

                                  Great signing for the Hurricanes, Kade Banks locked up for 2025.

                                  He's been a star of the NPC this year, he will slot onto the right wing nicely.

                                    @Canes4life An excellent like for like replacement for Moorby. I suspected he was off somewhere as he did not appear on a list of resignings that were posted on Blues Facebook a while back.

                                        Yeah he definitely looks to have a bright future. Knows his way to the try line and has twinkle toes to boot.

                                        I’ve been pretty happy with all the signings Laidlaw has made so far, keep them coming.

                                          @Canes4life Also equally comfy at Fullback and can even kick goals I think. I was hoping he would stay with the Blues as he offers something different from the 'power athlete' backs that we tend to produce. Now we wonder who replaces him (maybe Tito- Harris or start Taele on the wing to learn the level before moving him infield when Heem retires. Unless they see Spencer as an outside back?). We will soon see.
