    At 6 it will be interesting to see who has been added

    Papalii should start at 6 (until Gibson is injured..)

    Olmstead? Umaga was looking at Robinson in the Northland v Waikato game. Maybe they both got contracts

    The Brumbies have already turned their attention to building a squad for the future.

    Robbie Abel has been named in the Maori All Black squad.

    I wonder if that's a hint that he's hanging around NZ for Super Rugby?

    @kiwimurph The Blues probably shoud have tried for Rennie as they appear to be assembling the rest of his team. 🙂

    @duluth What the fuck are the Blues waiting for? Sign him. FFS the place is a shambles.

    On another note interesting to hear his comment about no dickheads being in the Auckland team. Wonder if Hansen is reading this article.....

    Don’t they have to get NZRU approval? Have to make a case to include an overseas player.
    They’ve told him they’re interested and he has said he is too. Sounds like paperwork being done before an offer.

    Wouldn't you think you'd communicate that to him instead of the player not hearing anything and being concerned?

    @crucial they should, but not sure how strict they are these days.

    If they are looking at a 27 year old Canadian I hope they are also looking at someone like Tom Robinson too.

    I get the feeling an Auckland dickhead is a different beast to your typical dickhead. 😁

    Chiefs, jump in. He looks proper ready for a 6 jumper in Super rugby, and since the fucking highlanders have them all stored up, let's help the Canucks.
