@Stargazer recognize anyone from the below yo yo test? Is far right Brayden Mitchell?, third in Jono Hickey? 6th in Trent Renata? Not too sure who that is fourth in...

@Tim slim pickings then, i'd rather chuck Coles the 7 jersey.

If the Canes can win a championship after losing Beaudy to the Blues and now Ardie to injury I will be astounded. Hopefully Du Plessis Kirifi can step up. Good opportunity for someone like Devan Flanders to step up aswell.

Who comes in for Ardie then? Are there any decent-ish loose forwards left in NZ?

So are there only home jerseys this year?

Does anyone know if there are going to be new Super Rugby jerseys coming out this year? Doesn't seem to be much in store at the moment. History suggests they bring out a new one every 2 years.

So apparently according to Avan Lee, the Canes already have someone in line as a first five signing for 2021, couldn’t sign him this year for contract reasons. My first bet is that Otere Black will come back to the Canes.

Also, does anyone know if there will be WTG players this year?

@OomPB yeah not a bad signing after losing Rayasi to the sevens, I'd hate to say it @Stargazer but he is probably the more proven performer and has a fairly handy highlight real on Youtube. The fact the Canes have so many outside backs could very well mean they are looking at JB as a first five option.

A big plus for the Canes is that they have 30 returning players in that squad who will be out for revenge after narrowly losing to the Crusaders this year. That will fuel there season.

@Stargazer you will be pissed if Van Wyk gets a crack before Lowe.

@Stargazer I'm Welly through and through and even I don't want to see JGB there. Happy to be proven wrong though.

How is this for a curve ball, what about Tiatia at 10? Seems to be intelligent, a good communicator and on recent Mitre 10 Cup form he has all the skills to be a first five.

In fact I remember him playing for Wellington there in a pre season match a wee while back and he looked dangerous every time he touched the ball.
