Hurricanes 2021

@Canes4life im hoping browny and nugget are both chatting to fakatava as a replacement, spend next season learning from the best and then take over....but who would know
-
@Kiwiwomble I agree, but then they should give him a lot more game time next season, or he won't be ready. It was mind-boggling how they kept him out of the 23 for most games, this year. I know he's a puppy, but he needs time on the paddock at SR level.

@Yeetyaah said in 2021 Hurricanes:
@Canes4life Enari would be a decent signing. I find him to be quite under-rated.
He still has a year left on his Crusaders contract
-
Knowing the Canes though they will probably opt for Hauiti-Parapara who has been underwhelming but seems to be loved by the coaches.
He has really gone off the boil this year I reckon he has been good the last couple of years but this year he’s seem to have gone to the Justin Marshall school of being a halfback taking ages clearing it
-
@Stargazer 100%, Smith needs to drop down to 60 mins at most and even come off the bench, close out the games
the more i think about it a couple of weaker aussie teams might be good...
-
Congratulations Du’Plessis Kirifi for being called up to the All Blacks. That makes it 9 Hurricanes in the AB squad for Australia.

@Yeetyaah such a disappointing signing. He’s not even up to Mitre 10 Cup standards. Typical Canes, I had a feeling this was going to happen.
-
@Canes4life Yep, it almost seemed inevitable. I wonder whether they've signed him as an outside back or a midfielder?
This signing may have more commerical value (attracting crowds?) than value on the field.
-
@Stargazer It will more likely prevent fans from turning up because if he’s in the side the Canes are in trouble. He’s proven already this year that he still has tits for hands, no pace whatsoever and a tendency to seagull on the wing waiting for the ball to come his way.
It seems more like a pity signing to me, or a signing to keep Ardie happy so he doesn’t head off to league.

@Stargazer I don't think I was rude. "Wasted signing tbh, would be more beneficial to sign a young guy. M10 Cup form doesn't warrant a selection."
