@Stargazer said in Crusaders 2023:
@Chris They should go after someone with a bit more experience than Harford. In 2024, if Burke goes down, you don't want to rely on two rookies. Looking at who are off-contract at the end of the season (not sure about all of them), there aren't many options in NZ:
Marty Banks, Beauden Barrett, Bryn Gatland, Sam Gilbert, Mitch Hunt, Josh Ioane, Lincoln McClutchie, Damian McKenzie, Harry Plummer, (Rivez Reihana)
Some players in that list aren't realistic options, obviously. Maybe they need to look overseas if they want experience. Or try to get someone released from their current contract.
I can’t see anyone of those players you mentioned as real options.
Overseas maybe an option but I don’t see many players around who are Quality,I would not be surprised if they promoted from within their system, If it’s the new coach I think it is he will promote from with in.

@Stargazer They may get Mitch Hunt back.

@Chris Running out of props.
Brewis back and Jager not far away that helps.

Who here is worried the Crusaders might win the spoon this year?
Not me. But I’m under no illusion that this is the Chiefs and Blues year

Damn. Not great news. Good luck with the recovery big fella.
I would’ve loved to have seen him make a push for the RWC squad.

@ACT-Crusader Crusaders started badly, have bounced back and done really well with so many injuries. This week against MP we will hopefully get us on the right track and we may get a better idea whether we are contenders or not. For me the Chiefs and Hurricanes, although the way they fell apart against the Forces was a bit disappointing.

It’s pretty embarrassing losing to the drua aye fellas. Especially when you’ve got the best coach in history at the helm.

Moana Pasifika centre Levi Aumua has been in devastating form and brings size and power unlike any other midfielder in New Zealand.
Since he plays for Ta$man, he should play for the Crusaders as it is in the catchment.
