Crusaders 2019

[Tim]

Crusaders flanker Matt Todd said he was "gutted" Crotty wouldn't get a chance to don the red and black jersey one last time, something the 31-year-old might be about to do himself, as the red and blacks eye up a three-peat, and 10th title overall.

"Could well be. Hopefully that [contract situation] will all be sorted very soon. Could well be. Just trying to enjoy the week, really," Todd said.

@ACT-Crusader he lives in Brisbane. Was married to my cousin. Great man

[chchfanatic]

Heard an interesting rumour on Saturday night. Crusaders have signed an all blacks prop for next year.

[Tim]

@chchfanatic Reuben O'Neill or Kane Hames?

[Bovidae]

Hames was the first name I thought of, as based in Ta$man. He hasn't played in 2 seasons.

[gt12]

Laulala going back? I would imagine that they’d chase a TH?

[Tim]

@gt12 Signed for next season already.

[Tim]

@gt12 Perry has been injured a lot, leaving little backup for Moody.

[gt12]

@Tim

Hames would be a good fit, but I wonder if he can come back. I use Hope it’s no other Chief!

[Yeetyaah]

It'd have to be Hames. Does O'Neill count as an All Black when he hadn't been capped?

[Chris]

I hope its not Hames I think his best days are gone.We really need a TH as well as LH backup.We only have Jager as TH backup.
Bower can play both sides

[Stargazer]

Maybe Ofa Tu'ungafasi is doing a Lomax and moves to Chch to join his brother mid-contract.

[chchfanatic]

Only one person has got it right

[Nogusta]

@chchfanatic Ofa Tuugafaasi

[Duluth]

Ofa Tuugafaasi

I thought he was signed until 2021? The Blues giving him a release?

[Chris]

Or
Laulala

[Stargazer]

@Duluth That's why I said in my previous post that maybe he'll do a Lomax.

[Tim]

@Nogusta For real? That would ruin the Blues season.

[gt12]

@Tim said in Crusaders 2019:

Reuben O'Neill

Plays both sides and could be a great pick up. I'm hoping we don't lose him - contract status for him and others @Stargazer ?

[gt12]

And now I catch up. Is that legit?

Fucking Blues just cannot fucking keep their shit together, if that's true.

Of course, I'll be pleased that we didn't lose our guys
