Werahiko played the whole club season down here, and last year too.... he's not a bad signing. I thought he'd make the Canterbury squad, and even thought he wouldn't be far away from the crusaders 3rd hooker role.
I wonder if there's been a Blues approach?
Blues have lost MacDonald and I'd be amazed if Moulds is not cut given how little game time he got under Umaga. That leaves them with one hooker on contract (Parsons) and no Hookers were in the recent signings.
I would hope Tana is chasing GPT hard, but even that would leave all the hookers Northland has used and maybe Sua going for one spot. There's not many options because NZ does not have 15 Hookers capable of playing Super Rugby.

@Duluth possibly, although Olsen looks a very good prospect, then there is Ross Wright who has been a rock in our front row (when hooking) and even had some time in the BLues team in a pre-season match about 4 or so years back (under Lam IIRC) he has been hindered by being signed as a hooker and played as a prop.
Moulds seems to have all the attributes, apparently very good work/training ethics, Tana (or may have been JK) said he was a good leader for the young guys, yet neither JK or Tana seem to give him much time on the park, so yeah I'd be surprised if he is retained, and TBH if I was him it might be time to look elsewhere too unless he is being 'promised' better things.
