Totally agree maybe no other 10 wanted to come to the Canes, so Holland had no choice OR most likely Holland loves mediocrity.

@mikey07 we need more than JGB IMO. I saw Josh Ioane has officially been released from the Highlanders so it will be interesting to see if he ends up at the Canes or Moana Pasifika.

@canes4life I thought you knew he had gone to the Chiefs

@mikey07 haha I didnāt see that. That move makes sense for the Chiefs after losing DMac.

Newly-named All Blacks captain Ardie Savea will lead the Hurricanes again next year, coach Jason Holland says, pending some final details of his new deal.
But the halfback headache continues, with the newly-signed Cam Roigard having suffered a shoulder injury which will likely require a replacement being summoned.
Savea is the only big name not yet signed with NZ Rugby and the Hurricanes for next year after Dane Coles, Jordie Barrett and TJ Perenara all committed to the Wellington side for 2022 and the new Super Rugby Pacific competition.While Perenaraās return from a season in Japan provides a significant boost to their inside back stocks, there remains uncertainty over the third No 9 in the squad.
Holland said Roigard, of Counties Manukau, was signed before the NPC season as their third halfback alongside Perenara and Jamie Booth. But after starting their NPC opener against Manawatu, Roigard suffered an injury which could sideline him for some time.
āWe made a decision, and a couple of weeks ago we contracted Cam Roigard again. He won that race for that third spot, then two weeks later he popped his shoulder,ā Holland told Newstalk ZB.
Fellow Steeler Jonathan Taumateine, and Bay of Plentyās Luke Campbell, were both on the books this year but missed out to Roigard who was initially behind both in the pecking order.
With that pair having been told they werenāt required by the Hurricanes, talks may have begun with other teams which could make securing a replacement tricky. āWeāll see what everyoneās doing, but weād be delighted to have them back,ā Holland said. -
I would be perfectly happy with Richard Judd if heās available.

@cgrant which Higgins are you talking about, Riley or Kienan?
I agree if you're talking about Riley. Both him and Godfrey look to have big futures, both look like very capable footballers. Don't think they will get contracts just yet though as they haven't featured in the NPC but hopefully we see them in the development team.

I was talking about Riley. I forgot about Kienan.

@canes4life Yeah same didnāt let the jersey down last time he played for us to try keep Campbell if possible.
@mikey07 aslong as it isnāt JT. Luke Campbell probably deserves the spot the most after being solid for us last year.

@canes4life Yeah agree and as much as I like Booth and his explosiveness he is too injury prone, would much rather they kept Campbell, Iām glad they let JT go he offered nothing not even a crisp pass.

Canāt say Iāve heard that much about him to be honest.

PUJ might move up the pecking order somewhat but won't hold my breath on that one either.

Good thing is we only have 2 more seasons to wait til his contract gets renewed for another 5 years
