Hurricanes fans. You guys happy about Julian potentially joining the club again full time next year?
We are losing 2 wingers so there is a spot for him.
He has been outstanding for us in years gone by but absolutely no idea what he is like now, but I say give him a shot.He was shit when he left, crap in France "I'm going to ask for a DNA test. They must have swapped him on the plane" and has done nothing since. Wingers are a young man's game, we need up and comers, not those who were once great.

JGB has done well this year.
Jackson Garden-Bachop is among a handful of players off-contract at the end of the Super Rugby Aotearoa campaign.
The 25-year-old said his preference was to stay in Wellington and build on his busiest season after stepping out of Beauden Barrett’s shadow to become the team’s first-choice playmaker in 2020.
“Hopefully being here,” Garden-Bachop said. “I love it here so hopefully that will unfold in the next few weeks.”

@Winger yeah he has been very consistent. Hasn’t set the house on fire but he has done everything asked of him. He’s still growing as a player IMO so hopefully the Canes snap him up. Fletcher Smith might be the one that misses out if they decide to sign someone like McClutchie or Love (who I hear is turning a few heads in the Wellington Academy since coming in from Palmerston Boys).

Interesting. He's signed with NZR through to 2022 and has the option to change Super Rugby franchises at some point post 2020.
Now, he only commits to the Canes for 2021. I guess he wants to keep his options open for 2022?At least we have him for 2021. Hes really an essential part of the team
But like his brother it seems he can't commit to the Canes.

Edit. Nah looked like I'm wrong sanded he still had the option to move. He holds all the cards really
