@Canes4life 10. ? where did this guy come from?
In all seriousness I wonder if they will re sign both Smith and JGB for next year? -
@Stargazer just to piss you off they will sign someone like Ruben Love or Aiden Morgan, or even better TJ Va'a again.
-
@Canes4life haha funny u mention that both Love and Va’a are fighting it out for the 10 Jersey here in Wainuiomata.

Which one is currently the starting first five for their Premier Reserves?

@Canes4life said in Hurricanes 2020:
@Higgins Va'a has come back from Australia and seems to have taken the reigns in the last two weeks. Suprising they haven't used Love at Fullback, or is he injured?
That's good to read. He had a tough run with injuries so good he back on the field.
-
@Canes4life the club hasn’t released any info if he is or not, but like you said Va’a has started the last 3 weeks so I’m wondering if Love is injured because he’s not in either the reserves or the grade under it.
-
Yeah he is too good of a player to be dropped to the reserves. I've heard Love has been impressing at the academy so hopefully, he gets a good shot with Wellington this year. He definitely looks like the most athletic out of all the options within the Hurricanes region and that could play in his favour come selection down the track.
-
@Canes4life He impressed the two and only games he has played for Wainui, I can also confirm he’s a no show this weekend TJ Va’a is starting at 10
-
@Canes4life how long is PUJ signed for? He has been attracting interest further north!
-
@Nogusta the Canes will be keen to keep him.
On a side note it's good to see Kane Le'aupepe making his return for Jville this weekend in club footy. Hopefully he makes a return for the Canes after the bye. Does anyone know if he's playing for BOP this year?

@mikey07 Straight from the source (the Hurricanes' media release from 14 August 2019, including grammatical error):
Proven try scorer Wes Goosen has signed on until at least the 2022 Investec Super Rugby season while Peter Umaga-Jensen have signed on for 2020.

Hurricanes playing club rugby:
Wellington
Billy Proctor (MSP)
Salesi Rayasi (HOBM, bench)
Kane Le'aupepe (Johnsonville)
Murphy Taramai (Upper Hutt Rams)Hawke's Bay
Assuming Jonah Lowe (Clive) and Danny Toala (Hastings) will play club rugby again. They did last week. Devan Flanders probably not released. Pouri Rakete-Stones?Manawatu
Liam Mitchell is not on his club's team sheet. Either not released by the Canes or injured.Auckland
Simon Hickey (Grammar TEC, bench) -
What did everyone else make of the booing? Think this is a little bit sensative of Beauden. It came across as friendly fire from his old fans. Nothing more, nothing less.
-
@Canes4life To me, it seems he underestimates how betrayed some fans feel when one of their best and favourite players moves to another NZ franchise. It's almost like committing treason. Personally, I don't like booing, but I can understand it in this situation.
