@Stargazer I wouldn’t mind Connor Collins tbh.
He was in Canterbury for a while. Fiery little bugger never quite broke into the Crusaders/Canterbury system.

@mikey07 luke having a good run injury free showing his potential and deserves to get it

@Cpt-Kumera In his defence I haven’t seen him play so cant really pass judgement.

Agree. But he lost his position as a Wellington starter so unlikely
Although the Canes need two additional HB. One only for a year to replace Perenara. One an injury replacement. So both might only be for 12 months

Very promising First Five/ Fullback but I question the timing of his signing due to his age.

No choice. A player as promising as Ruben would be snapped up by another team.
Very happy with this signing. Hope he can be developed as a future 1st 5

Another coup for the Canes, after Billy Procter and Julian Savea. No room for Fletcher Smith now

Proctor was signed a few years back. But hes still only 22 so still time for him to come good. To me he's a center but needs a powerful 2nd 5 inside him. Maybe UJ at 2nd 5 might work

Or Lincoln McClutchie.

@Stargazer Would have expected Visinia, Fomai and Parsons to be snapped up also.

@Winger Just a little odd that both long-term signings were competing for fullback berth with Wellington, and Jordie, Tiatia and Toala already play there for Canes. So, I assume Love is intended as a 10 in place of Smith
-
@Machpants He was very good at prem level and was showing signs at Mitre 10 level good pick up, though I really wanted McClutchie.
-
Love is a 1st 5 playing fullback. I'm not sure why these young players need to be fast-tracked though. Give them a development contract first.

Canes need to find a good super rugby first 5. Not another adequate option. we've got 2 already. One who isn't even a starter at NPC level
-
@ARHS He must be a long-term project though, because he's no where near SR quality, yet.
