Lets keep the squad discussion in the individual team threads. It keeps it in one place and makes it easier to read

Some are suggesting that players can't be signed to a SR contract in their first year out of school. That would explain the likes of Tupaea and Flanders missing out, and they would likely be on a development contract.
Caleb Clarke was picked by the Blues but didn't play much.
-
Can they still play?
-
@bovidae Thing is, I'd be reasonably happy if I knew for certain that certain young players had a development contract, but they never publish those lists.
Oh, and look at this post:
@number-10 said in Hurricanes 2019 Discussion:
Devan Flanders told me the three-year contract was : first year as development (covering him in the Under 20's next year) and years two and three are full contracts.
It is eminently possible that others like Kereru-Symes,
Fakatavaand McClutchie have something similar. From a Hawke's Bay perspective I hope so.
