Gear can play 13 so would be a very handy asset for next year. Come on RG.. give us something to get excited about for next year!! Make a deal that we all agree with!

Ive seen sivivatu play fullback a couple times for the chiefs a while back.
Sivi has better allround skills but I prefer Gear whos quicker and I just want to see a jet on the wings like david smith.

Yeah if we can get either of those or someone of that calibre then I think we'll have a fairly handy backline for 2012. And after JOCs recent histrionics, I'm kinda glad he's gone.

DO E NEED A MARQUEE ????

[todd4]

There seems to be a suggestion that Fijian winger Nagala may be the new marquee signing for the Force.

A poster on G&GR (Rebels thread) has commented that he will sign for the Force and I have asked where he has heard this, when he replies I'll let you know.

It may be all scuttlebut.

"Full-back-cum-winger Cory Jane has revealed on social networking site Twitter that he will be staying at the Hurricanes for Super Rugby 2012.

Jane is currently with the All Blacks ahead of the RWC but managed to Tweet about his future before the team's ban on the website started.

"Its official I've signed to play for the Hurricanes for next years super rugby season...." he revealed.

Jane's future had been in doubt after 'Canes head coach Mark Hammett let both centre Ma'a Nonu and hooker Andrew Hore leave the franchise, while scrum-half Piri Weepu went to the Blues. "

Oh well another one missed.... wonder if there are any of the Russian team left to sign..... What is going on??

Sounds like he is a big chap with speed to burn, however this off wikipedia is worrying: "In Early 2011, he did not return to his club for the second half of the Top 14. It was later discovered his wedding which was to happen in December 2010 was postponed because his fiance was involved in a road accident. [8]. He was given time to return to the club but in March 2011, his contract with Clermont was terminated as Nalaga was unable to guarantee if he would return to France or not. [9].

After being unheard for in months, he was spotted at a local rugby tournament in fiji in May 2011 for Nadroga in the Digicel Cup. His prowess and form saw him getting a call-up to the Fiji national team to prepare for the 2011 IRB Pacific Nations Cup. After passing the trials, he was included in the expanded Fiji team to prepare for the PNC and the upcoming 2011 Rugby World Cup."
