@Stargazer good point
-
Isaiah Punivai could join his brother maybe? Although I don't know if he's been capped by the Crusaders in order to count.
Dallas McLeod should be our first cab off the rank if we didn't have Ennor and Goodhue playing, so hopefully he sticks around.
I think Bower is a strong possibility. Sione Havili'i also.

I'd be a bit annoyed if the Crusaders didn't keep a few of the more recent locally produced players around. We've notably lost Retallick, ALB, Alaimalo and Lentjes, and it looks like now a batch to the Highlanders who have McKay (not worried), Gilbert, N Punivai and possibly Will Tucker.

Meanwhile, going the other way, Shannon Frizzell??
Where have you heard that?

@Chris Cameron may as well stay at the Crusaders. He wouldn't start at the Highlanders either.

There was some noise around this recently. Makes sense when you become aware of the background to his Ta$man and Highlanders contracts, and also as suggested above, Grace may be groomed to play 8 (he started there on Friday for Canterbury).

Mataele,Cameron and Harmon
Cameron wouldn't be missed, but I don't see how he fits at the Highlanders.
Harmon would be missed and this would annoy me.
Mataele has had his moments but also A LOT of injury issues and with the depth we have out wide, may be surplus to requirements.

Maybe Gatland moving on opens up for Cameron.
Cameron may not be on the Crusaders retention list for next season.
Harmon because there is a gap at 7 with Hunt going to the Blues
and you covered exactly why Mataele may be one. -

It maybe because he’s not being retained at the Crusaders so a contract at The Highlanders is better than no contract.

Harmon or Havili
Cameron or Burke -
@Chris Hmmm yeah, when you put it like that, then yeah, fair enough. Obviously they feel that Havili and Burke are good enough back ups at 10.
