Hurricanes 2022

@stargazer yeah I’m not too sure about Booth. Missing a full Super season and then the NPC will put him well short of a gallop. Already losing Roigard could put us in a bit of a hole. I wonder if they’ve signed Richard Judd or someone with a little more experience.
On Flanders, hopefully the Canes start him at 8 but there is always that need to start Savea at 8 because he plays there for the All Blacks, therefore we might see him more at 6.
It will be interesting to see who they sign for those remaining positions. Hopefully we can pick up an exciting wing because Goosen has been a little bit and cold over the last couple years. He’s had some blinders but has also gone missing in a few games.

Is it certain that Booth will return?
Next year halfback Jamie Booth and Tyler Laubscher are expected back from injuries, Booth also with the Hurricanes.

Josh Moorby
He will join Stags lock Mike McKee in the Moana Pasifka squad. **It’s understood Josh Moorby has also signed with the Hurricanes**, while Ethan de Groot, Marty Banks, and Solomon Alaimalo will be part of the Highlanders.
