@bovidae said in Hurricanes 2021:
@LABCAT Likely join big brother at the Blues.
Would the Blues want him?
Sullivan looks like he has a lot of potential and Tuivasa-Sheck is also joining them next year, doesn't seem like they need to recruit another fullback.

Even if they wouldn't consider moving him to the midfield, I'm sure they would want him. A somewhat established All Black is better than both a possible future All Black and a league convert (even if he's a good league convert).
Besides, RTS can play wing too.
-
They should make a possible move from Jordie to the Blues conditional on Sullivan moving to the Canes.
@stargazer thatโs a good idea a Love Sullivan 10 15 combo looks good
-
@mikey07 hopefully Campbell or Booth.
@canes4life Have to be Booth you would think. I struggle to really find a lot uf upsides with Campbell, if you watch him when he playing his first instinct is always to go left, usually means his pass to right is a little laboured.

@canes4life sign of a great team culture there

I really hope Canes play Jordie at 12 now that Laumape has gone.

@kiwimurph Awesome news if true.

It's true:
Signed for 2022 only, by the way.

@stargazer Wohoo who cares Iโll take it saves the problem of trying to find a fullback
-
Great news, now we just need Ardie to re-sign along with a few more decent recruits including another experienced prop, lock and first five, and we should be looking decent for 2022.
The leadership of the likes of Bird, Franks, Coles, Barrett, Savea (if he re-signs), Evans and Perenara will be invaluable next year.
-
@mikey07 fair play to Savea. He was poorly treated at Toulon and he has every right to offer Laumape a few insights into what sort of club Toulon was when he was playing there.
Mourad Boudjellal comes across as a bit of tugboat. It seems to me that he signed Savea based on Youtube highlight reels, without taking into consideration the form he was in when he signed for Toulon. Everyone in World Rugby knew that Savea was past his best but it seemed to be a huge surprise to Boudjellal. He also signed Milner-Skudder when he was struggling so he obviously doesn't keep up to date with footy in NZ.

A good podcast with Aiden Morgan on the Huddy Hui recently:
-
Hurricanes doing a great job of signing up All Blacks for 2022. And there are more to come....
@sparky do you know something we don't?
