A good podcast with Aiden Morgan on the Huddy Hui recently:

[sparky]

Hurricanes doing a great job of signing up All Blacks for 2022. And there are more to come....

[Canes4life]

@sparky do you know something we don't?

@machpants the suspense is killing me....are they old or new All Blacks?

Probably Brett Cameron.

@dice Or Piri Weepu lacing up the boots again.

[Canes4life]

@stargazer we do need a prop.

You forgot one of the awards: The coaches wank bank award went to James Blackwell.

Seriously though, Prinsep as player of the year? Should have been Jordie.

[Nogusta]

@sparky I heard a current Blues loosie is on the way down there...?

[Dice]

@nogusta Akira? He's an AB and off contract.

Akira almost went down last time he was off contract. He's also behind Robinson and Sotutu at the moment, so maybe he'll try go down there to become a regular starter?

[Stargazer]

@dice Starting, instead of whom? Prinsep and Flanders are already signed and Akira won't play at openside if Ardie leaves. The Canes' coaches seem reluctant to drop Prinsep and Flanders is the future!

[Dice]

@stargazer No idea, but he has more chance being a regular starter down there than up here.

If it were up to me, he'd start ahead of Prinsep.

[mikey07]

@nogusta Blake Gibson?

[Duluth]

Blake Gibson?

Gibson would make sense. There's been rumours about him leaving. On form he's close to getting passed by Choat and Hunt might be over his head problems next year

As for an AB signing my guess would be Josh Ioane? Holland made comments about looking for another 10

Yeah What a joke

[Bovidae]

If you are excluding current ABs, what about Plumtree? I'm not sure of the length of his contract but he is from Wellington.

[Stargazer]

@bovidae I was thinking that as well. Makes sense.

[Canes4life]

@duluth Hope it isn't Gibson, I don't rate him too highly. Who would he replace anyway? Kirifi and Iose have signed on and Ardie is not far away from what I'm hearing. Evans can also cover 7 if he signs on.

Is there a source of an AB signing or is that just pure speculation?
