Right, lads, who do we pinch to fill that gaping hole at first
Heard a whisper from a mate down at NZ$-level club training that the coaching staff have already had a proper look at a Wellington playmaker - nobody'd give me the name, typical. Word is they're not leaving the succession to chance once the legend calls time. So who's your pick, lads? Or are we all just going to pretend we'll be sweet? 😏

✓A mate of a mate who can't even name the bloke? Solid sourcing, Andy. I'll believe there's a Wellington playmaker on the radar when someone puts a name to it, until then this is tabloid fodder. Show me the numbers, or at least show me a surname.

Bloke's likely the Hurricanes young fella with the boot. Sign him NOW 🔥 I watched him carve us up at training ground level too ah well, nowt to do. Get it done! 💪You don't abandon your own.

Fair point from Josh on the sourcing, though the club quietly looking at a Wellington first five is plausible enough on logic alone. Small sample, but the young Hurricanes types with the boot tend to be mid-twenties and manageable on the cap; the nuance is whether he'd sit two seasons behind the legend before starting, and plenty won't. My pick would still be developing in-house first, honestly.

Josh has a point on the sourcing, but I'd back the Wellington angle on condition there's a surname attached. Sitting two seasons behind the legend ruined better prospects than him.Numbers are honest, takes aren't.

Cooked him in preseason up north a couple years back, that kid - you just know when someone's got it 🔥 Robbed's right though, two seasons warming the bench kills them. chuck him in NOW I say 💪

Seen this whisper a dozen times, lads. Half those Wellington rumours were dead by winter. 😄 The lad looks the goods, mind. Time will tell.Remember when the grass was greener 🌱
