Hurricanes 2024

[African Monkey]

@Chris I have. They were good at scrum time against the lesser sides. I support MP as well and watch every Drua game so I watch plenty of the lesser sides haha.

Their scrum was terrible last night. I'm wondering if they had the wrong studs in last night like the Force last year because they were going backwards at a ridiculous rate.

Where does this Hurricanes side rank among the franchise's all-time teams

The 2024 Hurricanes won't become the first team in Super Rugby history to put forth an undefeated season, but they may just become the best.

Let's finish the season first. The standard back in the Nonu years was higher IMHO

What’s the story with Mafileo?

Articles like this make me laugh. For all we know they could bomb out first week in the playoffs and no one would be ranking them highly at all. Make the call at the end of the season.

Hurricanes re-sign three loose forwards and one prop

The Hurricanes have bolstered their loose forward stocks by re-signing three flankers and one prop to at least 2026.

Good news about Iose, Tosi and Flanders

[Duluth]

@mikey07 but not Shields?

[mikey07]

@Duluth I don’t mind him signing an extension as he provides experience but am more excited with the younger players signing extensions.

[foobaNZ]

Great news. With Ardie coming back I was thinking we may not hold on to Flanders & Iose.

How long is Lakai locked away for?

Will TK Howden be the one that gets squeezed out?

[foobaNZ]

@Duluth you'd have to think so - they can't all fit. A shame as I think Howden is a great player too.

[Canes4life]

@Duluth he could be AB quality with more opportunity. Expect him to shift to another franchise.

[BerhamporeNinja]

@foobaNZ or is he? ...

[BerhamporeNinja]

@Duluth great signings!! all with the potential for higher honours

[foobaNZ]

@BerhamporeNinja are you implying Ardie isn't coming back? Isn't that a done deal?

[Darren]

Just a shame we lost Roigard, Proctor, Asafo Aumua

They really are key to us winning. I don't think I can understate how important they are.

Do we have any updates? Proctor at least is back soon?

[Canes4life]

@Darren Proctor will be back next week, Delany and Lomax likely aswell.

Aumua is back running and doing weights so good chance he’ll be back for the quarters.

[Canes4life]

@foobaNZ Ardie is 100% coming back next season.
