@Stargazer May not need to let anyone go considering Beauden will most likely have a year off. McClutchie will just come in for him I would say.
-
@Canes4life Yeah, possibly, but I prefer longer term thinking and what's best for the development of McClutchie as a player. He can't learn anything from BB if BB isn't there.
-
@Stargazer doesn't matter, we have the King in our coaching lineup.
-
@Stargazer Crusaders through Philpott,Dagg and a few other do have a strong connection with the Bay so I am sure they are watching McClutchie.

@Chris Arggghhhhh, don't mention Philpott to a Magpies supporter on the Fern. That name is still giving us nightmares! And Philpott is also the one who left McClutchie out of the NZU20 squad for the JWC this year!
Some solid @Nepia bait there, he'll be along shortly to defend Philpott.

So Scrafton has signed for the Canes according to JK on the Breakdown. Good to see we are signing bigger guys for next year - just need to re-sign IWL.

@Machpants From what I've seen against the Canes and last week against the Chiefs he looked solid. I think he was probably one of the best for the Blues last week so they will be annoyed at seeing him go. Good to see we are looking outside our catchment area, now we just need to get a couple more experienced props and we will have a good foundation for next year.

Dane Coles and Gareth Evans both playing club rugby in Wellington this week.
