@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.
-
@Canes4life Great news, although I must admit that it's a bit disappointing that Evans plays club rugby in Wellington instead of Havelock North.
-
They are probably lining him up for the South Africa trip so he will have to be in Wellington so he can fly out with the Canes on Sunday.
-
@Canes4life Yeah, that makes sense!
-
@Stargazer Former NZ Warrior, Charlie Gubb, in there.

Maybe I’ve been out of the loop for too long. I try to keep up with the new names etc but I am finding it hard to watch the canes this season. The WC year has meant anything but consistent selection and I understand the perceived need for that. But most of the games have looked like preseason games. Fuck all crowd. So bugger all atmosphere. Not a lot of top draw play and as good as the Jags have been this year there was no fucken way we should have lost to that team.
I dunno may six years in the bogan Mecca that is the Gold Coast I’m just too far removed. Honestly I think they just look shit. But so do all the other NZ teams, Crusaders aside. And I don’t think my living in OZ means I’ve suddenly developed a dislike of NZ rugby...
