@Canes4life JB doesn't even make your starting backing? Tough
-
@canefan Yeah he does, he's at 15.
-
@Canes4life TBH He’s our best 10, too. You’ve got to hope F Smith gets some time to see if he develops tho, more upsides than JGB - who is competent but slow. And the Canes still operate at a Beaudy at 10 pace.
-
@Machpants yeah but I think we get the best out of Jordie at fullback as he's so bloody safe under the high ball. Let's hope the Canes offer him plenty of $$ to stay put.

Oops sorry, got the number lined up wrong....

Where does it state Kobus isn't returning?
Hes signed for a UK club
-
@Winger that's surprising considering about a month ago he was keen to sign on. Oh well, there's plenty of talent in NZ to pick from.

He's played well but I'm happy he's going. Someone local can try to step up

The return of Da Bus?
I'm guessing the Canes will pick him up
He's been training with Ponsonby but not playing. He got offered an Auckland contract but turned it down. I presume that's because the risk of an injury ruining a much more valuable SR contract
From his social media it looks like he's living in Takapuna
-
@Canes4life 10. ? where did this guy come from?
In all seriousness I wonder if they will re sign both Smith and JGB for next year? -
-
@Stargazer just to piss you off they will sign someone like Ruben Love or Aiden Morgan, or even better TJ Va'a again.
-
@Canes4life haha funny u mention that both Love and Va’a are fighting it out for the 10 Jersey here in Wainuiomata.

Which one is currently the starting first five for their Premier Reserves?
-
@Higgins Va'a has come back from Australia and seems to have taken the reigns in the last two weeks. Suprising they haven't used Love at Fullback, or is he injured?

That's good to read. He had a tough run with injuries so good he back on the field.
-
@Canes4life the club hasn’t released any info if he is or not, but like you said Va’a has started the last 3 weeks so I’m wondering if Love is injured because he’s not in either the reserves or the grade under it.
-
Yeah he is too good of a player to be dropped to the reserves. I've heard Love has been impressing at the academy so hopefully, he gets a good shot with Wellington this year. He definitely looks like the most athletic out of all the options within the Hurricanes region and that could play in his favour come selection down the track.
