Fk yes Ma’a Nonu’s coming back.
Nevermind, he looks too skinny… maybe Richie Mo?
-
A few people commenting it’s Vaea Fifita… definitely wouldn’t mind that. Mind you, he’s 33 now so not sure how good he’ll be.
Not sure how we have a spot in the squad if no one has been injured…
-
Joey Manu was mentioned?
-
It does such big.signing !! But we have a full squad and Japan is mid season, so it must be someone from Europe?
-
Another suggested Ben Lam who doesn’t have a current contract .. replacement for Fehi?

Not a new signing. It’s an extension for Mr Roigard.
He's already signed to 2027 though?

@Landers92 said in Hurricanes 2026:
@Bones weird. I just asked and source said it’s Roigard extension. If he’s wrong, it would be a first.
Come on man, I've already posted it on my Facebook group.

Good man myth got to keep the masses up to date.

Nonu is contracted to the end of the 2025/6 season? When does it end? I'd be interested in how his coaching apprenticeship is going as well.

I really hope we can do better than recruiting a winger a decade older than the one leaving

@Canes4life The commentary says has he got the pace and just looked at the YouTube and it was TJ commentating not Nisbett which killed my theory of it being Fafita

Fifita also has tats on both arms, the player in the social promotion didn't.
I'd take Roigard signing through until 2029 any day of the week.

@Canes4life Through to the lions tour makes sense !

Didn't say when it would be released next week did it?
I actually like Canes attitude on this throw us out a tidbit and keep us talking about them and the super comp.Worked really well for the landers when they extended TB's contract.

Yep, what I meant though we all moan at times about not enough promo etc for super rugby, just I think putting out bits like this keeps us discussing it a bit. Why I think NZ teams do so well at getting a team on news most weeks during perseason. I must admit after living in Aus for 20 years where you were lucky to hear or read any rugby on news, I just like seeing it.
Something we used to do in one club I was on committee of in NZ years back, we would try and find some reason to get the club in local newspaper (not for bad shit)especially and when we were looking for sponsors made sure we showed tham how often we got mentioned etc.
