    @Stargazer yeah you're probably right but I can only hold our hope.

    If Cameron starts for the Canes in 2024 which I think he will, I hope Godfrey is 10/15 cover off the bench like he was a number of times this year.

    Godfrey just needs to start playing 10 more at NPC to get time in the boot there. If not for HB, maybe he looks shifting elsewhere, especially if that's where he wants to play going forward.

    @Stargazer I don't think the Chiefs will need another 1st 5 if Ioane is back. Three should be enough (with DMac and Trask).

    Lucas Cashmore could be available. He was in the Blues WTG so maybe he is back there. McClutchie is the most experienced of the others that could be signed but the Canes haven't wanted him previously.

    @Bovidae Ah yeah, I forgot about Ioane. I don't know why I keep thinking he's going overseas, because that hasn't been announced at all.

    It's a mystery to me why the Canes never showed interest in McClutchie, but Holland is gone now, so that will hopefully change. 🙏🏽

    With current resources I'd be happy with Cameron starting and Godfrey covering from the bench.

    Would have been nice to enticed someone like a Perofeta though.

    @foobaNZ I'm not sure if Perofeta is the guy aye. Yes he's been in the ABs environment but I'd prefer other players tbh.

    I'd like us to sign either McClutchie or Jacomb from Taranaki. I feel like Morgan might get the chop once his contract expires next year.

    I watch them both in the final

    Jacomb (assume it was him) looks very promising. But McClutchie seems to have improved a lot too

    @Canes4life I'd rank him as the next best 10 TBH.

    AB 10s next year will be interesting - on a side note. Presumably it's DMac but next year's Super season is quite appealing with the AB jumpers up for grabs.

    @SBW1 A bit of a mixed bag. Some really good games and some average games. Clearly still has the training wheels on at 10.

    Saw in another thread Jacomb has signed for a Chiefs WTC spot.

    I wonder how loose those are - like if the Canes said we'll give you a full spot can he move?

    Assuming he wants too of course, but as a Naki lad I am sure the Canes, and playing with Roigard and Jordie beside you must have some appeal.

    Squads will be locked in. When Jacomb made those comments last week, everything will be confirmed.

    Often there are injuries to full squad members that haven't been made public requiring some of these WTG players have a greater role in the pre-season. Trask, for example, could be one of those at the Chiefs, meaning Jacomb plays.

    @foobaNZ if I was Laidlaw I would sign another first five (Jacomb or McClutchie) on a fulltime contract with an eye to moving Morgan on when his contract expires at the end of 2024. It won't matter if we carry 4 tens because Godfrey can also play fullback.

    This will mean that by 2025 our first fives will be Cameron, Godfrey and one of McClutchie or Jacomb which is very solid.

    @Cpt-Kumera

    I think the following will re-sign. Other than that I think it's anyone's guess.

    • P Rakete-Stones
    • J Sangster
    • D Bird
    • T Howden
    • C Delany
    • B Iose
    • P Umaga-Jensen
    • K Naholo
    • D Sinkinson

    Players that I hope we release:

    • S Rayasi (has all the potential but unfortunately has failed to deliver for too long now)
    • P Tosi
    • T Laubscher (this guy is always injured)
    • R Prinsep

    Players that I hope we sign:

    • L McClutchie - he's been outstanding in the NPC and deserves a crack with the Canes
    • H Murray - he's been a try scoring machine for the Taniwha this year, would be nice to have a slick finisher on the wing.
    • J Beehre - a strong campaign with Auckland, would be good to pick up a young talented lock with size for once
