Seriously, you wonder what kind of offers he must have fielded? If I was a NH club paying up for a back right now you would have to think he would be at the very top of the list.

They aboslutely love him in France so the offers would have been pretty mind blowing. Amazing that the ABs have created such a strong legacy and culture that it trumps a fucking massive pay check for so many players. I couldn't think of another sporting organisation anywhere that has achieved that.

I hear it was the shopping in Wellington for his girlfriend that really won him over

I was told she thought the office tower ground floor cafes on The Terrace were unreal, so imagine how happy she was when they pointed her to Lambton Quay.

Wait till she's checks out Johnsonville mall .

She will never leave the Porirua shopping mall.

Worst mall I've ever been to? Goldfields Mall in Thames. I swear you could get food poisoning just by LOOKING at the smorgasbord at the Chinese place in the so-called food court.

I didn't know Thames had a mall either, it must be quite the shithole judging by this <a class="bbc_url" href="https://m.reddit.com/r/newzealand/comments/4le6g0/new_zealands_saddest_malls/">https://m.reddit.com/r/newzealand/comments/4le6g0/new_zealands_saddest_malls/</a>

That's a mall? I always thought of it as a long corridor to the warehouse. Actually i do recall looking through the window into one of the smoke/engraving/ornament shops last time i was there.

Smudge

It's called a mall, but half the shops are closed and the food court is as depressing as I made it sound above. South City Mall in Dunedin is a close second.
 
I daresay Beauden Barrett would look down his nose at shopping at those joints (to make a weak attempt to bring this back on topic, seeing as I'm the one that took it off topic)

jegga......I'm not sure where you find this shit but I seriously think your time would be better spent wasting time on FB instead. Shall I send you a link ?

Canes4life

The Barrett-Barrett inside halves pairing. Now thats an exciting thought. Come to the Canes Jordie! Surely you would rather be in a backline that included your bro, Milner-Skudder, Perenara and the BUS over that out of sorts Crusaders backline. To be fair if Jordie doesnt sign for the Red and Blacks it could be the worst Crusaders backline ever when you look at the players theyve had in the past and the fact that Nemani Nadalo has left the building. 
Theyve got some serious signing to do otherwise this could be it next year: 
9. Mitchell Drummond 10. Richie Mo'unga 11. Digby Ioane 12. Ryan Crotty/ Jordie Barrett 13. Jack Goodhue/ Ryan Crotty 14. Jone Macelai 15. Israel Dagg. 
Canes will field: 9. TJ Perenara 10. Beauden Barrett 11. Julian Savea 12. Ngani Laumape/Vince Aso/Jordie Barrett 13. Matt Proctor 14. Nehe Milner Skudder 15. Peter Unaga Jensen / Jason Woodward

MN5

So a backline with two current All Blacks and a former Wallaby is their worst ever IF ( and that's a pretty big IF ) Barrett doesn't sign for them ?
 
Did you not see their team of 1996 ?

Canes4life

Who was in their 1996 backline?? Anyway if the backline stays as it is it wouldn't fill me with too much confidence if I was a Crusaders fan. Youl need someone like Robbie Fruean to have a fully fit season to add a bit off punch. A shame as the forward pack is arguably the best in the comp.

So apart from Digby in for Nadolo, as you've pointed out, how is that much different to this season? Jordie comes in for Havili which many would call an upgrade. You could argue next year's backline is an improvement on this seasons.
 
Strange post.
