Big sad. Dmac hard carried us this year. It is what it is. He'll be back.

Some key players missing from franchises next season: DMac, Tuipulotu, Dixon.

Super rugby is going to be super boring. There will likely be two good teams and three teams fighting to avoid the spoon.

Edit: With Moana Pasifika, perhaps not. Second worst.

@gt12 the time for a single pro comp, is now.

[Crucial]

DMac: Hey guys I've been offered a ig pile of cash to play in Japan next year but was thinking of staying

Chiefs: That's great, Wazza will like that when he's back

DMac: Hold that thought

I expected that the lure of playing 100 games for the Chiefs would be a big motivation to stay.

[Yeetyaah]

For those who like photos.

[Yeetyaah]

@bovidae just a shame it wasn't enough to keep another certain player that we definitely need more than we need Weber.

[Yeetyaah]

Was kinda waiting for someone else to talk about Weber's re-signing so it's not just me flooding the thread.

I wanted him to leave. I think it's better to chuck the young fellas in the deep end and build on them. Rumour is TTT is gone which is unfortunate and there was a rumour that Nock is coming our way. So possibly Weber, Roe and Nock as 9's next year?

I hope they have Cortez signed in the WTG.

[ploughboy]

i would be happy if they had cortez signed in main squad

[Stargazer]

@yeetyaah I think it's a good thing Weber is staying if TTT is leaving. Teams need to have experienced players guiding the rookies. IMO, the young halfbacks are not ready to take over just yet, particularly in the big games.

And as long as Fakatava isn't eligible, he's the best second/third halfback for the ABs in addition to Smith and TJP IMO.

[ARHS]

Glad Weber is staying. Will be annoyed if they recruit from outside the region, as some good choices here now. Roigard, Campbell, Ratima, Carter would be better than bringing in Nock.

Roigard has been resigned by the Canes.

Yep, I agree with that. I just hope whoever the 2nd choice halfback is gets some decent time on the field. TTT's demise is partly of his own doing, but he was given so little chance to impress that when he did eventually get on the field he looked to be trying too hard.

Ratima is very promising but has only just turned 20. Definitely one for the future.

I am pretty sure it’s right but we will see.
