Moli was there last season but he was injured most of the time.

[ARHS]

Most of last 5 years. Count me surprised he is retained.

As the 2025 Super Rugby squads are announced they'll be listed here

I saw a Classic Sports post with this years crusaders Jersey so im assuming we're not getting new ones this year, same as 2024. A little disappointing as they felt a bit rushed, and i believe they came in late so that makes sense but though we might get something new a year down the track

Most years it's a 2 year jerseys cycle. 96, 97-99, 2000 and 2013 are the only years we didn't. Chiefs are the only exception with a different jersey in 97 compared to their 98/99.

@Yeetyaah yeah, i get that, just thought it might be different if theyd had to rush out the first ones

[Yeetyaah]

@Kiwiwomble blame Adidas for pulling out last minute.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Yeetyaah ...not actually blaming any one for anything, i just find things like jersey design interesting, was excited to see what classic had to offer after so long with adidas phoning it in...and this years we're understandably pretty bland so had my fingers crossed

[barbarian]

Looking at that Waratahs squad and considering their draw... I just can't see a loss on the schedule.

I'd even suggest the British Lions would be underdogs against us.

[Daffy Jaffy]

The Replica Jerseys are all on sale right now with several sizes sold out, so it could be that we will see new Jerseys. I think Classic do new ones each season for the League clubs.

Video interviews with Laidlaw (about the 1st 5s and TH props) and McMillan (McAlister) within the article.

Nope they were marketed as 2024/25. Some of the jerseys have new collars next year and as far as I know the Chiefs will be getting a new heritage jersey.

He's well past it. Wouldn't offer anything to anyone these days.

[Tim]

@African-Monkey Watching him in the ABs in 2021 was so fucking painful. He should have retired in 2016.

[Bovidae]

James Tucker at lock. He's better than his brother, who the Hurricanes replaced him with. I note that Jacob Norris isn't at MP either.
