@Duluth This just means less competition for Akira as the Blues run him into the ground again.
Maybe they’ll pick up Ben-Nicholas, imagine that 1 - 2 punch!
Hopefully that Ta$man coach at the Blues doesn’t run Akira into the ground again.
We already have Sotutu, who was probably the form 8 in the NPC before getting injured. Although I wouldn't mind bringing Ben-Nicholas back home if there was any room for him.
The Blues probably need to sign an openside more than a 6/8.

Ah yeah, Sotutu was class. Why wouldn't you want Ben-Nicholas even if there was room for him?

@Nepia that's if Akira makes the 1st 15. Hasn't looked Super Rugby level lately.
Yeah, hopefully he can return to normal form next year. Oddly enough, despite the fact he was worked into the ground during Super comp this year I think the break he had for the NPC was the worst thing that probably could have happened.
Anyway, back to the Canes, Plumtree really is trying to fill them with plodders.
Plum loves his plodders. Its a concern what we end up with at 1st 5.

My bad, I missed out a word in my post.
Of course I'd want Ben-Nicholas if there was room.

@Nepia Yeah I'm losing faith in Plumtree, does he even watch the ITM Cup? Seems like most of the signings they make are discussed before the NPC season even kicks off.
I mean I wouldn't even have Prinsep or Taramai starting in an NPC team, let alone a Super team.
-
@Tim 100% agree, he was useless for the Blues aswell. What position has Taramai been playing for Harbour?
-
@Canes4life He was not wanted for the Wellington Lions the year after he made his one and only appearance during the campaign when they were relegated in 2014. Can't reall see what he has done since then that can justify granting him a Super Rugby contract. It looks like the wooden spoon Blues outfit did not put up much of a battle to retain his services.
-
@Canes4life number 8
-
I think Kafatolu should of been picked ahead of Taramai, i guess his versatility paid dividends for him? that would only mean that crusaders are keeping prinsep deep. Id rather BNT over the 3, oh well our loss highlanders gain.
-
@BerhamporeNinja have the Highlanders signed BTN?
-
@BerhamporeNinja If that’s this case Plumtrees stupid BTN reminds of Akira Ioane a lot just with a better workload we need players like that not so so players like Prinseep who have no flair
