    @KiwiMurph
    “It would be quite nice if the Blues gave us a cheque for the expenditure we’ve occurred, that would be quite nice,’’ he quipped.

    It would be quite nice if the Blues got a cheque for every player coming through their region that plays elsewhere. Around a third of M10 players I believe.

    It would also be nice if offshore teams had to pay NZ to take players ... but down that path can lie madness

    @nzzp Yes I had a good chuckle at that. Not so fun when the shoe is on the other foot is it Crusaders.

    His decision raised eyebrows

    So his decision was a joke?

    @KiwiMurph this was pretty funny too

    “We gave him every opportunity to stay, but he wasn't willing to stay here and compete, and he's taken another path.’’ Robertson said.

    no chance of course that he wanted to grow his game in a new environment. If he makes the ABs, I'll chortle quietly to myself.

    So many years of getting the Kane of the Barretts, and wrecking 10s. Redemption y'all.

    Good Luck to Sam hes a quality young Lock I have no doubt he will be an AB I am sure the Crusaders are a bit pissed.

    @Chris I hope he goes really well. It's a big call coming north, and leaving the Crusaders.

    Funny how the anti Crusader brigade are focusing on one line at the end of the article and are ignoring the rest of the quotes that show the Crudaders handling his decision well, publicly at least.

    What like this quote?

    "he wasn't willing to stay here and compete, and he's taken another path"

    That doesn't read as particularly classy to me.

    No worse than I have seen from other professional teams over the years.

    Josh Goodhue

    Good to see he has re-signed. Has stepped up his game and aggression this year.

    @Tim although I hate to say it, he’s probably only one concussion away from hanging his boots up.

    I heard Goodhue put on some weight to get up to 120kg, but even with the added weight, he was still able to perform PBs in the fitness tests.

    @Steven-Harris which is why I think he has been gun shy, but has had a decent run with his fitness this season (lockdown was probably great for many to deal with niggles) which will help with confidence too
