@mofitzy_ Landers maybe to replace Hunt?

[Tim]

@mofitzy_ Choat (1.90m) can play 6 as well as 7, so he'd be a good replacement for Tucker in the Blues squad. Robinson and Gibson will probably get injured, so he might well get game time.

Good pick up for most teams though.

@Tim hoping the improvement Nock has shown this year both at the Blues and for us is a sign he is finally getting there, so while been a long slog, hoping the perseverance with him will now start to pay off.

If we had seen more of Cooper at 10/15 for us, he may have been an option as he looks like one of those players who could make the step up.

They signed Billy Harmon.

[African Monkey]

I'd rather we targeted a fullback tbh.

@Stargazer LOL, slip of the mind there! Meant Laulala.

I've had to stop drinking coffee for a while, so we'll blame that.

[Kirwan]

@Stargazer wishful thinking, means Laulala.

[Stargazer]

@Tim I thought I had missed some big news (and a change in position).

[BerhamporeNinja]

@Tim Luatua's coming to the Canes next year.....lol wishful thinking right

[BerhamporeNinja]

Looks to be signed to the Blues to the end of 2021.

[Stargazer]

@BerhamporeNinja All the props in that list and James Parsons are signed to the Blues until the end of the 2021 season.

[BerhamporeNinja]

[Crazy Horse]

The Roosters of Super Rugby.

[BerhamporeNinja]

still get clapped by Canes though .. ..bye now

[Bovidae]

It used to be the Crusaders that hoarded AB props, then it was the Chiefs for a few years, and now it's the Blues. Not a criticism, just stating a fact.

You've had the best back 3 in the comp frequently ... you can't get both at the same time

[BerhamporeNinja]
