Jacomb or McClutchie

Who has the better game in the final (started watching but never finished).

[Canes4life]

@Winger @Stargazer would probably answer that one best.

[Stockcar86]

Jacomb got hooked soon after half time from memory, as he was not having the best game

@Canes4life said in Hurricanes 2024:

The Tucker signing is dumb to me, he's going to be the Blackwell type player that I thought we had finally seen the back of

But taller. No more short locks hopefully. I feel OK. Delany hopefully returns and Taula hopefully has the goods

James TUCKER is a 29-year-old New Zealander rugby player standing at 1.97 m tall (6 ft 6 in) and weighing in at 115 kg (18 st 1.53 lb; 253.53 lb) , who currently plays for Waikato Mooloos in New Zealand as lock

Maybe Jamie is stepping up

[Canes4life]

Saw a rumour on that Ardie was trying to lure Kolesi to the Hurricanes.

[Machpants]

@SBW1 Is that you george?

[Canes4life]

@SBW1 yeah Ardie mentioned it in the interview he had with Kolisi at the World Rugby Awards. Apparently was super close to getting Kolisi's signature. What could have been haha.

[foobaNZ]

I assumed that was tongue in cheek? Surely SA would never let him go. Not sure Siya would go either tbh.

[Canes4life]

@foobaNZ I remember a rumour a few years ago re Kolisi making a shift so there may be some truth to the tale.

[cgrant]

Kolisi has already signed in France.

Confirmed on Canes Facebook:

Rayasi
Devery
Naholo
Rakete-Stones
O'Reilly
Ngani Punivai
Judd

[SouthernMann]

Punivai looking to collect all the kits?

[Grooter]

@foobaNZ for the 3rd halfback spot I'm surprised the Canes didn't try and sign Adam Lennox from Taranaki who looks very promising

[Bovidae]

So a replacement for Savea. You would think that the Canes could find someone better. I'm happy that the Chiefs weren't committed to Punivai for longer than 1 year.

[Canes4life]

My god these are some average signings.

We are starting to look like an NPC team.

Just goes to show there is no quality depth in NZ rugby anymore.

@foobaNZ I knew O’Reilly would get the 2nd/3rd hookers spot.
