@bovidae really? where did you get that from? wonder if he was asking too much?
Stuff article with quotes.
cheers, he's pretty blunt about it
Naholo admitted he approached Taranaki, who he played 35 games for between 2011 and 2019, before signing with Canterbury. “It came around real quick [the deal]. I didn’t get much interest from anywhere else,” he said. “I obviously asked there first. I’m from up there. I was keen to go back there, but they’ve got a good crew up there already.must have been his pay as much as anything, Canterbury dont need to take a gamble, they must think they can get his knee right
-
@kiwiwomble Well they do need all the help they can get after their pathetic campaign last year, which includes an over the hill Naholo.

Looking at the Cantab squad it's interesting not to see Owen Franks in the squad. I believe he's back in New Zealand so maybe he will suit up for Wellington or another province in the Canes catchment...
Maybe Ta$man has opened the chequebook again?
-
@canes4life Sorry should’ve used a comma I’m atrocious for punctuation I was generally interested if Armstrong was going to play a part in the NPC before he leaves, then I ranted on about Franks.

Nah we will be right I think you only have a C team left this year

Jack Debreczeni is a massive pick up for Canterbury,can see him being the back up to Mounga in the Crusaders..would have loved to have seen Jack back at the Taniwha but happy to see him back in NZ Rugby ..a class act on the field and a good bugger off it as well.
