Media release:

George Bower Signs with Crusaders to 2025

George Bower will be pulling on a Crusaders jersey for the foreseeable future, with the 31-year-old prop signing on with the franchise until 2025.

Te Kaha won't open until April 2026, but the Crusaders are urging fans to go on a priority list for tickets.
Colin Mansbridge thinks the crusaders will sell out the season tickets at the new stadium. He’s dreaming. Rugby will be dead by then.

It seems the Isaiah Ravula’s signing is not a 100% done deal as the Drua and Hurricanes are hunting his signature as well.
Cruden has also had a discussion with The Crusaders nothing has come of that as yet.

Rivez Reihana has been signed by the Crusaders .

[Bovidae]

Reihana was always going to be struggling for game time at the Chiefs with the return of Trask. Hopefully he gets more opportunities to play at the Crusaders. I guess that points to Ioane staying at the Chiefs too.

Why doesn't anyone sign Alex Harford for Super rugby? He has looked very good every time I have seen him play for Canterbury. Better than half the 10s that played Super rugby last season.

Quite interesting that Crusaders have got 2-10s that wouldn't get gametime at Chiefs.

Aaron Cruden would be a handy pickup for the Saders. Next year's squad is starting to attract a few veterans with Heinz locked in and Crotty.

Yeah the Chiefs should stop hoarding players. It's not fair.

Lol well they not really , they sent one to Japan and one to Crusaders last year.

Have heard Ioane Moananu is linking up with the Crusaders again next year as a replacement player (not part of the 38 contracted I don't think) as Codie Taylor is supposedly doing some sort of sabbatical.

Don't know the exact details, but I'm guessing it is more likely an extended break, e.g until May, rather than a contract in Japan.

@frugby

There is also an injury to McAlister which might keep him out of SR for a month.

Jeepers, is his hamstring tear that bad?

[Chris]

@frugby

That is healed but hurt his knee during NPC.

Northland outside back Heremaia Murray has been signed by the Crusaders for 2024 , great reward for a stellar Npc season.

[SouthernMann]

Really smart from the Crusaders

[Steven Harris]

@SouthernMann Murray had turned down a wider training squad offer from the Blues

What is happening in regard for a new 10 in 2024?
