    He'll be gone, probably to league. He only signed a 1 year deal so he probably sees the writing on the wall.

    Just like to gloat for a semi second, I did call out Chay Fihaki in the bolters thread.
    A small prize would be nice.

    When he left razor did speak about how disappointed he was and spoke about him being converted into a midfielder,

    Said something like, i think it would it be a natural progression, I think he could be a nonu , tana umaga type

    Not my thoughts , just repeating what he said

    @DaGrubster surely it’s the CEO. I can’t imagine smithy wanting that responsibility.

    I guess what we all need to wish for now is not if X, Y, or Z get's picked in the ABs Squad/23/XV, but that they move to the Crusaders and that rubbish players A, B, or C move to another franchise from the Crusaders. Which seems to be the same thing

    So no one else remembers him as a busted flush when he left?

    Along with those other superstars in that All Blacks squad Sowakula, Fakatava, Tuivasa-Sheck...

    While I don't think it significantly changes anything for the All Blacks, especially in the here and now, the return of Leicester Fainga'anuku is still a great thing.

    He's young, he's shown plenty of promise in his career already, and he's had some experience overseas. He might not usurp Ioane at centre or Clarke on the wing, but he's a great player to have in the stocks regardless.

    Everyone's so down on everything right now, even great news.

    @Mr-Fish

    It is good news Fainga'anuku is returning.

    Any good player returning is a boon for NZ Rugby and Fainga'anuku still has a lot to offer at the top level.

    Fainga'anuku returning is good news he has been playing really well in the centres for Toulon in a tough comp.
    We talk about SR not being great at preparing ABs well here is a player coming back after 2 years playing really well in probably the best comp in the world.
    I can't see the negatives for NZ rugby.

    Bugger! But we’ve just bought in Fihaki! He’s the future?!

    He’s a crusader though so it’s ok!

    Yet for the most part the form players in Super Rugby have transferred that form to test rugby....

    Can someone let Robertson know the All Blacks is not a development squad for the Crusaders?
