NZ squads need to find a total of 15 SR quality 10's. The bottom third of that list doesn't look great..
Gatland might develop but he looks limited. Ioane probably spooked the Highlanders coaches with that recent shocker at fullbackThey could hope another one turns up in the NPC
Why would Quade do it? I thought his really expensive contract continues until the end of next season? Is that over? If he wants to make the RWC his best option would be moving to the Rebels or Brumbies.

@canefan Wouldn't be a bad choice, considering the lack of good first five-eighths in NZ. I've been impressed with his attitude since he was snubbed by Thorne. From what I've seen and heard, he has been training hard, not only trying to play as well as possible for his local club team but also helping his club team mates getting better. Not sulking.

That is a weird article - it starts off by insinuating a deal is in the works but then instead of elaborating on that it moves to why it would make sense.
Fake news?

given he was not originally contracted to the Chiefs, and we had heard the chiefs roster was full, if they wanted him would they have had to get special dispensation from NZR or release someone else to make room?
Bit of a coup for the Blues though given he would likely have had offers on the table form other franchises too, he has come form nowhere into the ABs and captured some hearts along the way with his story.

Highlanders fans should certainly be worried at this stage about their options at pivot.
I suggested on another thread that Josh McKay could see game time at 10 for Canterbury this year which if it were successful would benefit the Highlanders.

Don't know why Mitch Hunt doesn't try and go to the Highlanders. He's wasting his time at the Crusaders.

Brumbies to retain decidedly mediocre player:

"Super Rugby would be better off with Quade playing in it - but in Australia not in New Zealand."
Booooooo!

@mick-gold-coast-qld He'd be better than Lealiifano.

@tim aren't a lot of options in Canberra. A player that's willing to come would be accepted with open arms. Especially one with Test experience.

True on so many levels.
Lots of roundabouts though

@darren-nicholson pretty low bar
