@chchfanatic Reuben O'Neill or Kane Hames?

Bovidae

Hames was the first name I thought of, as based in Ta$man. He hasn't played in 2 seasons.

Laulala going back? I would imagine that they’d chase a TH?

Tim

@gt12 Signed for next season already.

Tim

@gt12 Perry has been injured a lot, leaving little backup for Moody.

@Tim

Hames would be a good fit, but I wonder if he can come back. I use Hope it’s no other Chief!

Yeetyaah

It'd have to be Hames. Does O'Neill count as an All Black when he hadn't been capped?

Chris

I hope its not Hames I think his best days are gone.We really need a TH as well as LH backup.We only have Jager as TH backup.
Bower can play both sides

Stargazer

Maybe Ofa Tu'ungafasi is doing a Lomax and moves to Chch to join his brother mid-contract.

chchfanatic

Only one person has got it right

Nogusta

@chchfanatic Ofa Tuugafaasi

Duluth

Ofa Tuugafaasi

I thought he was signed until 2021? The Blues giving him a release?

Chris

Or
Laulala

Stargazer

@Duluth That's why I said in my previous post that maybe he'll do a Lomax.

Tim

@Nogusta For real? That would ruin the Blues season.

Reuben O'Neill

Plays both sides and could be a great pick up. I'm hoping we don't lose him - contract status for him and others @Stargazer ?

gt12

And now I catch up. Is that legit?

Fucking Blues just cannot fucking keep their shit together, if that's true.

Of course, I'll be pleased that we didn't lose our guys

Chris

@gt12 Is he classed as an Allblack as he has never been on the field ?

That was one of my questions, but I'm hoping we keep him. It's hard though, because we also have Moli and Ross plus two AB THs....

@gt12 NZRU: "Auckland rugby is one of our top priorities."

Also NZRU: "Hey Blues players, if you're not feeling it just go to the Crusaders."
