Crusaders 2020
-
Hearing the Crusaders had discussions with a former All Black on Wednesday..I actually know who it is, and i am a little surprised I have got to say, but I can also understand the reasoning given some of the personal that have moved on..
Be interested hearing some names thrown out..
Sorry people ,no clues..!.can do the old warm, warmer or hot..
Let the speculation begin..? -
DC .
-
@Steven-Harris a forward?
-
@Yeahtheboys freezing..!

@pukunui not a forward
First 5? That is the only spot they have really lost depth in the backs.
-
@pukunui not a halfback or first five

-

Off to breakfast with Mrs..I lost a bet..!I was going to go in that direction after narrowing position.
Ok, are they currently ( this season) playing mitre 10 cup or super rugby for an NZ team?
-
@pukunui super rugby this year and mitre 10 cup..
-
@Steven-Harris surely it’s a centre. The Crusaders are stacked in the outsides.
-
@Steven-Harris Rene Ranger?
-
@Daffy-Jaffy that's the only player I can think of aswell. Fits the bill as he played for the Sunwolves in Super.
-
@Daffy-Jaffy Have you hacked my email..?,Correct..!,like I said I am surprised ,but can understand the logic .
-
@Steven-Harris Simple, he is the only Former AB SR mid/outside back playing mitre 10 that was available.
-
@Daffy-Jaffy thoughts..?
-
@Steven-Harris if he can stay healthy he will always add some excitement/x factor to a team. Speed at his age would be a question, maybe would need to focus on 12/13 rather than wing. He does seem injury prone in his old age though. He will be 33 this month.
-
@Daffy-Jaffy think his injuries have been bigger ones, when he was signed to NH as a foodbill it was his neck, this one knee.
Outside that he has been pretty durable...but yea speed will be an issue never been the quickest wing at his best, but he always brings a spark...good and bad.
Would bring something to the squad, not sure he'd be a starter
We could do with him at the moment.
-
@Daffy-Jaffy my thoughts exactly, he’s currently in rehab, might be an outside chance to front for Northland late in mitre 10 cup, much of the conversation with the saders was about his rehab and recovery..would not surprise me if Jack Goodhue had an influence, age and injury the only real concern for Ranger..but if you look at what Nonu bought to the Blues this year..he would be handy acquisition to have floating around .will be weird seeing him run around in a red and black jersey.
Not a done deal,so it will be interesting to see how this plays out
