The (not yet confirmed) signing news Hurricanes fans have been waiting for....
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.

Who the fuck is Josh Moorby? Why on earth are the Canes looking to Southland for players. Why on earth am I asking that question, they're idiots.
Suprising he didn't always start for Southland

@nostrildamus Dale Macleod pulled moorby out of Waikato club rugby as a 19 year old , saw his talent and pulled him into the Stags ..once again underlines McMacleods ability to spot talent

Overall I’m pretty happy with the squad, the success of this side will highly depend on keeping our key players fit.
Only real disappointing signing is James O’Reilly, would have liked to see Jacob Devery get a crack, he was very effective for the Magpies this year.
It sounds like Cam Roigard’s injury isn’t as bad as first thought as he isn’t on the long term injury list.
My favourite signing is TK Howden, he really looks the goods.
