Havili is the AB's greatest second-five since Mauger, a well deserved appointment this is.
Ferners with this level of drinking problem need help

Finally some clarification on what happened to Taha Kemara in the NH-Waikato game. A knee to the stomach ended up requiring emergency surgery to repair a ruptured bowel.

Don’t see any updates in here so will update for those who aren’t aware.
Rives Reihana out for roughly a month with an ankle injury.
Johnny McNicholl out for up to 8 weeks with a hamstring.
Quinton Strange still a few weeks away from his return.
Finlay Brewis and Seb Calder both had shoulder injuries in the opening 20 minutes against the Blues on Friday. Unsure of the extent but according to Stuff, Penney said Brewis’ is more significant. -

@Bovidae said in Crusaders 2025:
Moananu played well when he came on but the Crusaders will be very thin at hooker with McAlister and Mullan heading north. Eli Oudenryn as the backup until Taylor returns? Manumaua Letiu is a similar age. Maybe an SOS to Quentin MacDonald.
Eli Oudenryn and Manumaua Letiu are both in the WTG,and having be doing the preseason.
Taylor due back after the bye so should only miss the first 2 Rds. -

@Bovidae said in Crusaders 2025:
@Chris Speaking of hookers, where's Hendrix Taylor now? I would have thought he'd be ahead of Letiu and Oudenryn in the development pathway.
Has had a few injuries of late and seems to have dropped of the radar in 2025.
