I heard same report and it sounded like Ennor was re-signing - despite the French links.

Yeah I understand that is what is going to happen.

flip a coin.

Any idea who we are likely to sign for next year?

[zedsdeadbaby]

How many outgoings are there?

Drummond isn’t signed beyond this year or O’Connor, Blackadder but most players are signed already I think. I guess Aumua probably won’t be back but Leicester comes in.

[SBW1]

What is happening with Richie Mounga, is he likely to play for the Crusaders in 2026?

[sparky]

@SBW1 Staying in Japan I think.

[zedsdeadbaby]

Correct

[SBW1]

Which would be a good opportunity for JOC to sign on for next year.

Do you know if the talks they had with Nick Evans last year will lead to anything in future?

@Chris RNZ, saying in article this morning, Blackadder should be available for selection against Brumbies and his desire for AB selection.

Exactly the type of coach the Blues require to get their misfunctioning backline operating.
