@antipodean Crusaders fans will scream for Will Jordan
Nah, they won't.

It’s fair to say PUJ has won his 1v1 matchups against Ioane, Goodhue and now ALB in the last three games. Surely must be making a case for All Blacks, considering he covers 12 aswell and has the size and speed to foot it at test level.

@Canes4life Would really like to see how he goes at 12.

Great call. Such a big improvement from PUJ this season. If he keeps going with this level of progress, he could develop into a world-class Test midfielder.

@Tim yeah he has the size for a 12, maybe like his uncle that could end up being his preferred position in the long run. I just hope the All Blacks get the centre mix right. I still think ALB / Goodhue play best when they are at 13, so having someone like Umaga Jensen with the size to hit it up when required could be the best option with Laumape now out of the mix.

@sparky yeah they’ve come along way this year after losing their coach & flyhalf. Massive positives next year with the Crusaders/Blues/Canes humming along nicely. Just need the Landers and Chiefs to pick it up which I’m sure they will.
Man the Aussies must be dreaming if they think they can match it with our teams right now.

PUJ is the nephew of both Tana Umaga and Jerry Collins. Great to see him following in the footsteps of two Canes all-time Legends from his family.

@sparky I thought it was quite funny that PUJs family wouldn’t let him look at offers from other teams. Love the Canes passion.

@Bones What makes you so sure?
They're not that silly.
Thank you sir.
Jordie has taken that next step up this year. Clear favourite for the ABs ahead of Jordan.
I think there’s a strong chance that Mo’unga and two Barrett’s make the starting XV and Jordan misses the 23.

You come out with some bizarre calls bro...his actual twin brother plays for another team!

@ACT-Crusader if he's in he's a wing I reckon but some have misgivings about his defence.
Perenara, Beauden and Roane makes a fine bench but leaves the back 3 pretty green I guess.
