Super Rugby 2024

Now I'm confused-isn't TUG more a 12?
-
In the article from Club Rugby NZ below, they understand that two high profile Hurricanes players are signing with Moana Pasifika for next season. One is likely to be Julian Savea, anyone have any leads on who the other might be?
Sideline Conversions 4 September (some rugby news and information to start the week)
A big weekend of rugby just gone, and it continues this coming weekend, albeit a bit quieter with fewer games and competitions in action. Of course, it will be wall-to-wall Rugby World Cup coverage…
-
Maybe Reed Prinseep or Salesi Rayasi are the only 2 I can think of who would have a MP connection.
Peter Umaga-Jensen,? -
@Chris I wouldn't class Prinsep as high profile though but I hope you're right. Rayasi is another I wouldn't mind departing. I wouldn't be sad if PUJ departed either knowing we have Higgins waiting for his chance, who I rate higher aswell.

@Canes4life
No me neither, but most of your other players are signed up or have AB/AB XV pathways so I can not see any of them moving. -
@Chris another player could be Isaia Walker-Leawere.
-
@Canes4life
It could be after being sent home from Japan with AB XV,Maybe he feels that door has closed. -
@Chris he's been disappointing aswell. Similar to Rayasi, I feel like he has a tendency to switch off in games.
There are plenty of locking options for the Canes anyway, Delany, Plummer, Bird, Sangster, the injured Anthony Pettett and the two under 20s locks in Allen / Morrison will all be vying for spots.
-
@Canes4life IWL is still under contract with the Canes.
There are several possibilities in addition to Julian Savea: Pasilio Tosi, Reed Prinsep, Salesi Rayasi, Peter Umaga-Jensen and less likely: Tevita Mafileo, TK Howden, Brayden Iose and unlikely, Kini Naholo, Jacob Devery.
-
@Stargazer do you have a list that shows those that are signed up for next year?
-
@Canes4life I have all sorts of lists, but they're in a format that I cannot post here without it looking like an unreadable mess.
The players that I mentioned as possibilities are players for which the contract duration was never published, so I don't actually know whether they're off-contract or I do know for sure that they are. Of other players I do know that they're contracted for 2024.
-
@Stargazer There's also this page but I feel like there are more players signed up than what are stated here. I.e. Higgins is signed for 2024.
Update: it states the length of contract for each player in the link below.
