No stqndout options at first five, hooker, openside, fullback or centre
business as usual then, we'll beat some teams we shouldn;t and lose to the others

Read a disappointing rumour, that we signed Leni Apasai as our third hooker prior to the NPC. Seems very stupid to sign a depth player without giving others an opportunity to impress

Henry Bell or Ricky Jackson who did ok filling in for the Crusaders this season would have been better choices.

Lol that is highly disappointing. I think he’s trying to play for every Kiwi Super franchise.

Give me Henry Bell. I know everyone is jamming his younger brother. But, Henry has been great

Yeah he has played well especially the last couple of games.

I'd hope Abraham Pole gets one of the loosehead spots. Just not sure of the contract lengths for DLB or Ayden Johnstone. Think Abraham Pole has more upside than both of them. I'm just interested to see whether they have a trick up their sleeve for the 10 jersey for next year or if they will be running battlers again.

@SouthernMann You might get Connors Brother down there battling for your 10 jersey.

Holy shit that would be a terrible signing lmao

Yuck. Imagine a first five rotation of JGB, Hunt and Banks. Really sends a shiver down the spine.

With Miller and Faleafaga coming through. I highly doubt we will be chasing a inexperienced player. I sniff a journeyman
-
@SouthernMann agreed, and I think millar has grown and settle a lot, having a sharp shooter at the death could be a real asset
