@stargazer I've watched it. I couldn't stop thinking about his disgraceful airport toilet encounter when they were all banging on about what a great bloke/husband/Dad he is.
-
Hunt confirmed on Wednesday that he had re-signed until the end of the 2023 season, joining Aaron Smith, Folau Fakatava and Shannon Frizell in committing to the Highlanders until the next Rugby World Cup.
-
@stargazer was just coming to post this, thats great news, has really settled into his role
-
@duluth found an article thats just listed him as unknown
edit: i see you've found something, he will be more of a loss for Otago that the HIghlanders i think, not that he was perfect for us last year but he still has "something"
-
The Canes should chase him hard if he's available. He's good enough to start at SR level
Maybe leaving Dunedin would be a good idea based on his last 12 months

He only signed a one year extension with Otago last year. Doesn't mean he's leaving, but he was clearly keeping his options open
-
@duluth for him yeah, you might be right, for us?....bugger
Was really hoping he would settle and grow like Sopoaga did, he had a few rough seasons early on too

@taniwharugby Northland spoke to Josh last year , this where the Blues should have been working with Northland , it’s win win situation , no offence to the current first fives the Blues have , but I don’t think any of them will win you a championship..
-
Given that Barrett is on his way back, I doubt Ioane would want to join the Blues, but Northland/MP sounds like a plan.
-
I just don’t have faith that Otago and the highlanders would be working together to replace him
-
wow..i mean speights has sponsored Otago for decades, brief dalliances with other but often with Speights on the right breast too...now its a problem?
