Hurricanes 2020

@Canes4life I completely agree with that statement
-
@Canes4life JGB certainly improved so good to have him for another season. he's no Beaudy, but at least he is getting into the Canes style.
-
@Machpants agreed, and I only expect him to get better. I wonder who else they have on the radar or if they now see TJ as that third choice first five option. Either way they will probably need a third first five anyway.
I've heard murmurings in Wellington that the Hurricanes see big potential in Ruben Love but the last time they signed someone of that age with potential was TJ Va'a, and that hasn't turned out well. I'd rather Love play a few seasons in NPC and then bring him through if he proves his worth.

@Canes4life Aiden Morgan is too young I assume.
-
@Canes4life I really hope so, wow when did we have all this 1st 5 potential in Wellington 😂
-
@mikey07 if you count Gopperth and Howell as talented then it's been a few years.
I'm not sure how much we will see of them this year though as JGB is the incumbent but it will be good to have some depth in that position.

Here's a wee video on Ruben Love that I came across:
-
@Canes4life what about Flutey? Do you reckon it will be smith that misses out next year?
-
@Canes4life said in Hurricanes 2020:
@Tim both of them are the same age I think. He is another one with potential that the Canes will most likely have an eye on.
Yep. Both were in the NZ Schools team last year. Morgan played at 1st 5 and Love on the wing - a position he had never played before. Hammertime!
