    Bryn Gatland to kick the winning goal in the 2019 WC final. It has been foretold.

    as much chance as Ihaia West

    Michael Little will win the penalty with a great tackle.

    Ben Botica has been playing some great footy in France's Top 14.

    Sopoaga seemed to have suffered from too little game time last season. Performances down a notch on previous years.

    That said, a substantial loss, and leaves us going into RWC with all our eggs in one basket experience wise.

    Big loss but at the same time I wasn’t that convinced he was that great a test 10 , not saying he wasn’t either but jury was still out a bit for me .

    But you don’t want to go losing the next in line all the same .

    We lost Nick Evans, we survived. Next man up

    The 3 years that followed Evans leaving are not something we want to repeat when it comes to 10's.

    I'm not sold on RM at all. Here's hoping his progression kicks up a gear.
    The Ben Smith sabbatical and other injuries have been a blessing in disguise now with regard to DMac. If he shows the skills and head at 10 for the Chiefs he now has a lot of test experience (way more than Lima had) to work from.

    It's going to be difficult when you consider that in Super Rugby, LS is holding a spot that is stopping progression of someone else. Doesn't give many options.

    We basically have

    Canes- BB
    Chiefs - first step up in position for DMac
    Landers - departing LS
    Saders - Mounga
    Blues - Perofuture/ Gatland

    The ABs are likely to stick with the development of RM and will not want to waste the experience gained by DMac but my pick as dark horse to put pressure on selection is Perofeta. I can't back it up with much, just a hunch. He looks to me to be the guy that once things click he will jump up the rankings fast.

    Is there anything to be said for a project player? Some of the Irish 10s look quite good. Would be ready to roll for 2023, just in time for the defence of Webb Ellis.

    @crucial Have to agree on Perofeta, looks all class. Am also interested in how Hunt goes. Was impressed with his play for Ta$man.

    There has never been much inclination from the Canes to give anyone else much of a chance to show themselves unless BB gets injured.

    He didn't give me any indication that he has the class from what I saw in ITM cup

    @canefan I thought he went well, for Wellington to have a successful season with a dud first five doesn't really sound right.

    Midol reported yesterday that Jarrad Hoeata will join Montpellier as injury cover for Jacques du Plessis, who is out injured for the rest of the season. Although it has not yet been confirmed officially by Montpellier, Hoeata tweeted last night tha he had landed in Paris and had one more flight to go, so I assume Midol has got this one right.

    Now confirmed by Montpellier: http://www.montpellier-rugby.com/news/joker-medical-jarrad-hoeata-sengage-avec-le-mhr

    He was Wellington's official player of the year.
