@daffy-jaffy Blues and ABs need a 15....
What Blues really need is another Benji Marshall...

Roger Tuivasa-Sheck's focus could soon turn to a different World Cup as he considers switching to the All Blacks.
Ahem, that would be switching to rugby. NZR didn't promise an AB spot to SBW and he needed to prove himself first at NPC/Super rugby level. The same for RTS.

TJ Perenara has re-signed with NZR and the Hurricanes for four more years (end of 2021 season)!

After watching the warriors this year he'd need to learn how to tackle before making the all blacks.

Lessons from Dagg?
Good point, shek has perfected the "oh whoops I slipped" move that Dagg has used to infuriate many a Crusaders fan when we needed him to make a tackle.

@taniwharugby Is Douglas any good? I watched a few Northland games this season and can't say I noticed him, or noticed him standing out etc

He’s a real workhorse. Been as solid as a rock for us during the M10 cup. Has the ability to play lock or 6 equally as well. I was skeptical when he showed up in pre-season, but in my opinion has been one of the stand out players for Northland this year. He usually has his head buried in doing all the shit work no one else wants to do. He’ll go well for the Canes..

The Crusaders have re-signed Tim Bateman and signed Mike Delany.
Bateman I expected, but Delany not at all. Presumably we'll let go Marty McKenzie which isn't a bad thing as I don't rate him and don't like his game, but I didn't expect it to be in favour of a 35 year old. I also assume Brett Cameron will be involved in the wider squad which means Mo'unga will be ably spotted next year by a crew of talented midgets and a classy grandpa.

Former Crusaders assistant backs coach Tabai Matson, who is back in NZ after recently severing his ties as Todd Blackadder's assistant at English premiership club Bath, was Robertson's boss when Canterbury won the national title in 2012 but is understood to have already agreed to work under Colin Cooper at the Chiefs.
