Hi guys I’m New Zealand rugby fan from Japan it’s my first post on here
Maori ABs are in Tokyo and I met Josh Moorby and talked with him a bit yesterday.
I asked him “Are you gonna back to Canes?” then he said “yeah”
So I reckon he is going to back for Canes if my English was right 😅Welcome to the Fern.
That’s interesting. He’s signed to go over to France unless he’s somehow been able to pull out of that contract. He might have meant he was going back in the future after he finishes in France maybe?

What about Tom Allen's brother ? He looks bigger than his twin.
Slightly bigger but he was a bit average from what I saw.

Where did you hear that? Canes CEO was pretty confident he would be a Cane next year.

@Canes4life just a rumour (an old one) but i hope it aint true.. he aint happy with how Canes done his bro over, but this is before he went to Japan, dunno he couldve had a change of heart

They gave his bro a contract extension even when he was past it. It came to a point that he clearly wasn't up to the standard of a Canes contract so they had to make the tough call. Ardie would come across as seriously precious if that was the case.
The fact he trained with the Canes when he returned makes me think he's happy enough now and has probably accepted that it was time for JSavea to move on. Laidlaw would of had a chance to talk to him aswell and he's a pretty likeable guy so I'm sure ASavea won't go anywhere.

@Canes4life i really hope so, hes still got some strong connections with some of the guys in the team so hoping that and new coaching outfit would sway his decision

I would say the deal has been done either way. They were close to negotiating an extension about a month ago. You'd think Ardie would want to sort that out before the test season got underway.

Best thing that happened to Julian
His only poistion he has the speed for now is 2nd 5. Cnaes have better options here whereas for MP he was perfect

I'm actually surprised Ardie still thought his bro was up to it. Hope he never becomes a selector.

@Canes4life not meant coaches have to choose their brother, or not, Pro level. Pretty irrelevant

Hurricanes announce new attack coach, Brad Cooper. Son of ex Canes coach Colin and currently a part of the Under 20s setup over in South Africa. He was also in the coaching setup of the Taranaki side that won the NPC last year.
-
Moorby and Sangster officially out the door.

The noise I’m hearing about Savea not being at the Canes next year is getting louder.
the only teams that could do with him are in the South Island. Unless Hoskins fucks off in a hissy fit

@mariner4life Akira has moved also
