@Stargazer I see what you're trying to do there

Matching up the Crusaders vs Canes XV's next year and you have one ding dong battle, shame we can't get Lomax for the playoffs this year: this is also assuming Beaudy takes a sabbatical.

@Tim all these signings from other franchises and not a. peep coming out of the Blues..plenty of gaps to fill but you have got to say most of the talent is locked away already ..
I am hoping somewhere in the back room there’s some sort of recruitment plan going on...
Just bugs me that the franchises appear to be locking in their squads nice and early.. -

Article by Paul Culley on stuff hints at Will Jordan moving to the Highlanders
link textCully is fishing, that's all. I believe it once it's confirmed by the franchise.
Promising outside backs in the the baby All Blacks include Northland wing Scott Gregory and Bay of Plenty pair Lalomilo Lalomilo and Cole Forbes. Stuff understands Crusaders No 10 Mitch Hunt will also be joining the franchise and he won't be the last, although Clark wouldn't bite when asked if the Highlanders had also pursued brilliant young Crusaders fullback Will Jordan, who is off contract. -

Nic Berry would have got a lot of credit if he'd stood up to Marius with a "Sorry Marius, that looks like it's gone back to me - it's certainly not clear and obvious".
That was my immediate reaction - no worries with that, we'll get that try.
Late reply but in the Highlanders stormers game the tmo hurriedly tried to award a try where the winger was clearly not even or behind the kicker (after 1 camera angle) and Berry correctly stood his ground and overruled him.
Good reffing, questionable haste from tmo

Havili < Barrett is questionable.
Not sure about Armstrong to be the starting LHP. I would opt for Toby Smith. -

@Higgins I don't mind Garden Bachop, he has looked better than F Smith and Marshall at 10. I'd like to see McClutchie there but I don't think he will be ready by next year.
