After a quiet start to the season, Lincoln McClutchie is getting better and better. With our shortage of good 10s in NZ, it would be stupid if he doesn't get signed, this year.
He does have a touch of the Ihaia West about him. Could get himself a SR contract, but I wouldn’t go as far as say stupid if not picked up given he’s only 20 years old.
-
James Tofa the 12 from Manuwatu he runs really hard and tackles aswell.
-
@ACT-Crusader He's 21 and in his 3rd Mitre 10 Cup season. IMO, it's time.

I thought I heard in a game earlier this season the comms say he was only 20?
-
@ACT-Crusader The comms make mistakes, too. He's from April 1999. Fakatava is still 20.
-
@Stargazer possible replacement for TJ at the Canes IF we can find out when his Highlanders contract expires.

I’m only going by what I heard.
Not sure who run these websites, both have him at 20?

@ACT-Crusader The HBRU haven't updated the player profiles sufficiently for 2020. You can find his date of birth on last year's site:

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, depends if the Canes Magpies quota is filled or not, plus there's a danger of him being number 1 and then having to start regularly which would be pretty unpalatable to the Wellingtonians in charge of the Canes.
-
Any half decent 2m+ locks not under contract?
-
Will Tucker would be another if he doesn't have a full contract with the Highlanders yet.
-
Alamanda Motuga if not playing Samoa sevens. Sam Slade. I believe Cameron Roigard has minor contract with the Chiefs. No other new guys from counties.
-
Tyler Laubscheer ?
-
Luke Campbell may be worth a look after sparking bop resurgence. Joe Johnston Stan Van Den Hoven and Matt Garland might all become contenders if they continue their form in coming weeks. Very interesting now that the form in top division has swung round so abruptly.

On the Newshub story about TJP the other night they hinted that the Hurricanes were the only team that had a position available at halfback. That would suggest Milo-Harris is contracted to the Chiefs for 2021. Bad news for Roe as well, if true.
-
Yes. Tough for half backs. But do canes need 2 now?
-
-
Zarn Sullivan is class. He has a massive left boot. Sometimes a bit too casual though.
-
-
Anybody got any thoughts on new players getting contracts ? .It is getting close to Squad reveals, Cant wait to see who gets a contract.
The squads are going to be very interesting for 2021.
The Blues already look like they will be hard to beat in 2021 they are my pick to win both comps.
-
I'm wondering if anyone has picked up the North Harbour props? Jimmy Roots to join his brother at the Crusaders?
-
@Tim said in Who will get a first SR contract ?:
@Chris Think someone posted that AJ Lam has a two year contract with the Blues. Wonder if Rayasi can be lured back north from the Hurricanes?
Geez I hope not, you have enough talent now, settle.

Is he a prop ?I havn't really noticed him
Crusaders have Williams,Newell,Brewis in the system if he is.
-
Does anybody know if Lord from Taranaki has a contract with anyone.
-
@Tim lure him back North? You took him off us in the first place. 😜

Crusaders are surely the favourite. At Super level Mounga is a master meanwhile Blues won't have Beaudy.

For me its the Blues. They will have great depth Crusaders will not have Bridge,Ennor,Matale at the start they will still be rehabing.
Depends on who they bring in to cover those 3. and replace Harmon,Paea and maybe Allen,Romano,Finau who could be out for 2021.
-
@Chris Even without Bridge, Ennor and Mataele, you guys can still put together a killer backline.
9 - Bryn Hall
10 - Ritchie Mo'unga
11 - Leicester Fainga'anuku
12 - David Havili
13 - Jack Goodhue
14 - Sevu Reece
15 - Will JordanTo me that's the best backline in the comp.

Sure we can put together a good 20 but I think your depth is stronger in the Loose Forwards and Props,
Hb we are ok but not much to cover First Five and the MF if we get another injury from the players you have named.
-
@Tim said in Who will get a first SR contract ?:
@Chris 9, 10, and 15 all big questions for the Blues. There's a few points per game, especially under pressure, at stake there. Midfield depth is a worry too.
For the Crusaders big questions over First five and MF depth after the top 15 are put together.LF to are a bit lacking in fire power outside the starting combo.
It is going to be interesting to see who everyone gives new contracts too.

Tyrone Thompson
he has a same sized twin but in NRL. 1.87m is quite a tall hooker.
-
@Tim said in Who will get a first SR contract ?:
@Chris I'm hoping that after a year of nearly, Nock and Black can step up when it counts, and not get overawed.
Always rated Nock great pass on him.
He needs to trust his running ability he’s good when he picks his moments.
