    @Canes4life said in Crusaders 2020:

    @Stargazer surely has to be Havili. It's probably a matter of having all the best players on the park and whether they see Goodhue as a 12 or a 13 moving forward. I'd suggest they would most likely leave Goodhue at 13 which means Havili would probably have the experience to shift into 12. Then you would probably have to start Jordan at 15, with Ennor as utility impact off the bench.

    Early signs are Goodhue/Ennor Mid field combination if both are fit to start the season.Jordan off the bench

    Would it be too hard to put Ennor at 12? Goodhue is such a great natural 13 it doesn't make sense to move him.

    @Yeetyaah Ennor is a centre/wing. I don't think I've ever seen him play at 12. Havili to 12 makes much more sense.

    @mikey07 Not sure for how long. No doubt, it will only be for preseason. I assume he's been there to cover for Mo'unga's during his ABs break.

    SR franchises must have been scraping the barrel this year, because so many players - who missed out on a SR contract and would normally have joined them for preseason - have ended up taking up contracts in Japan or the USA.

    Alex Ainley looks like he's setting out to surpass Brad Thorn!

    38.5 years old and in training with the Crusaders!

    Crusaders also already lost a player to injury. Billy Harmon off (knee?).

    That try to Tom Sanders was a thing of beauty, well, what led to it especially. Jackson Garden-Bachop kicked the ball far into the Saders' half and Ben Lam failed to chase it. Mataele did and went looking for a hole in the Canes' defensive line, making a nice break. Ball handling was excellent, with Ennor and particularly Fainga'anuku and Jordan all playing their part.

    Canes playing a bit messy.
