@Duluth said in Blues 2025:
So who is leaving?
Akira obviously
Vikena & Tangitau strongly rumoured to be moving
Any others? Sullivan not signed yet. Maybe Nock and/or Rush?
Has it been confirmed where Tangitau is moving to? Rumour was that it was the Highlanders but I wonder if the Canes will go after him as they've got to plug a few gaps on the wing, Laidlaw being his Seven's and Under 20s coach after all.

The Highlanders rumour was posted by someone with an almost 100% hit rate on his rumours

That's a great pick-up for them.

It would be. I hope it's wrong, injuries happen and form can change fast esp with outside backs

The game is much better to watch this year; refs aren't dishing cards for incidental contact to the same degree they have been in the last few years.
Really? I pretty much stopped watching because of it. Can't bebothered watching lopsided contests, so watched highlights to see who won.
Probably why the Blues took it out, because I didn't watch the full 80 of all of the matches...
I saw enough to know that I will be well pissed off if Hoskins leaves though (and that's not just from the highlights, although he did feature a lot).

I hope you watched the final, one of the most complete 80 minute performances I've seen. Worth watching a replay.

So, definitely need a new 6 with Aki going.
Probably need a new 8 with my expectation that Hos disappears.
Suafoa and Segner at 6? Our area of strength just got eviscerated.
tick for excellent vocab.

@Trig said in Blues 2025:
Ekuasi would be an good option to come into the loose forwards if Hoskins rumour is true?
Another one rumoured for the Highlanders apparently.
-
@SouthernMann Along with Vikena the hooker, rumoured to be moving south

Sullivan re-signing would be interesting... feels like there is barely room for all three of Plummer, Barrett and Perofeta, let alone Sullivan as well. Where does Sullivan see himself getting game time?
Come to the Canes son. We need a first five.

Does Sullivan see himself as a 10 or 15?

Didn’t he have a desire to play 10? Doesn’t matter anyway, he’s behind an AB either way.

I believe he did but not sure it went as well as he expected.
