Hammet is looking for a new gig isn't he?
Damn, I really want to know what @Canes4life's two posts to you were.

@taniwharugby Carlos first played for Horowhenua as a 17 year-old. in 1992. 28 years later and he can still play a decent standard of club Rugby.
-
From a media article about club rugby in Hawke's Bay, I understand that:
Jonah Lowe played on the wing for Clive and scored two tries; and
Danny Toala came off the bench and played well at fullback for Hastings.No mention of Isaia Walker-Leawere in the article, so I don't know whether he played this weekend.
-
@Stargazer I know this isn’t the right topic but what are your thoughts on Visignia signing for the Bay this NPC?
The form he was in when he left was really good maybe the Canes could grab him to take Lams free space.
-
@mikey07 In the Magpies 2020 thread you can read the info from the HBRU about the signing. I think the "add size" argument may be spot on. Although I normally have reservations about bringing in players from outside the province, if that's what the coaches were looking for and they couldn't find a good, big wing in the Bay (that may have to do with our demographic), he may be a good addition.
You always have to wait and see how well a player plays after returning from overseas, but if he goes well, who knows, he might be a candidate to replace Ben Lam at the Canes?
-
@Stargazer we already have a ready made replacement for Lam - Salesi Rayasi.
Went to the game before and Walker-Leawere was helping out with the warmups, so not sure what the play is with him.
-
@Canes4life That depends entirely on whether Rayasi still wants to go to the Olympics, or not.
-
@Stargazer this is true. I wonder if Van Wyk will stay on aswell.

Lots and lots and lots of empty seat at the Caketin. Not a good look at all for overseas TV and doesn't help generate a buzz about NZ Rugby.
The Hurricanes management needs to develop a system to distribute any unsold tickets to workers from Wellington Hospital and their families, then to School & Club Rugby players.

Or do what the ARFU did for the Canes game, sold lots of 20 dollar seats to fill the ground
-
@sparky free tickets to schools, kid gets in free with a paying adult.
Kids then bugging mum and dad cos they have a free ticket in thier pocket (IMO works better than just saying kids go free)
-
@taniwharugby If that works, then brilliant. Empty seats at the moment are an enormous slap in the face to sports fans around the globe who'd love to watch live sport from the stands but can't because of COVID restrictions.
