What's the word on young hooker Bryn Gordon?
He played for the NZ Barbarians U21s in Taupō last year. There will be highlights on YT.
Have I missed something? Who is Bryn Gordon?
-
@Canes4life Think he plays in Manawatu, was from Horowhenua-Kapiti region, and was in Canes age group teams. After playing for U21 Barbarians last year, he turned up in this weekend's Blues A team.

Anyone got any updates on Reuben Love's injury?
No update. Initially he was only meant to be out for the first three rounds so either he's reaggravated the injury or he's picked up something else.
-
@Canes4life Strangely enough he’s filmed a TV add for a shoe company of him running, though I’m not sure how old it is.

I saw that and he looks quite spritely. Will Jordan did the same ad for Adidas so maybe they are targeting injured fullbacks.

If Morgan is out for a while with concussion, and Cameron is out too, who's our 10?
Godfrey?
Hopefully Love isn't too far away. He's better at 15 but obviously can play 10.
SOS to JGB?
Harry Godfrey would be the next man up, or that fella from Counties who came off the bench last week? Aiden Morgan trained last week so hopefully he's over any concussion issues.
-
@Canes4life Godfrey looks sharp so would be interesting to see him get a go against the Landers. Looks odds on unless Morgan is available.
Roigard had his worst game on the weekend so hopefully just a one off. Been one of our best otherwise.

See in article Canes thought Love would be back, but it's still not right, so no real rimeline on it..

Harry Godfrey signs through until 2025.
-
@Canes4life I’m glad he’s signed before the other franchises start circling for him.
-
This must be the article about Morgan’s return (https://i.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/super-rugby/131676865/wounded-hurricanes-aided-by-timely-return-of-young-firstfive-aidan-morgan)

I was stoked when I heard he was signed for a few more years, I worry with Canes having a food lot of young uns poking there heads above ground there would be a few cicling, I could of seen Godfrey being a bloody good target for Crusaders, etc.
I hope they tie up Roigard for a few years too! -

I hope they tie up Roigard for a few years.We’ve got Lakai, Love, Roigard, Godfrey, Higgins, Howden, Morgan all under 22. Then you have guys like Cooper Flanders also in that group. It’s definitely a core group of players to build the club around going forward so making sure they are signed up is vital.

@Canes4life under 23. 2 are currently 22. But still young
No tight 5. Although one can cover lock. We need at least one tall young lock

There are plenty of young locks coming through, Hugo Plummer who made his debut on Sunday, Tom Allen from under 20s, Isaia Walker-Leawere isn’t exactly old, and Justin Sangster is a young lock we haven’t seen this season yet. Caleb Delany is another.
