There are virtually no trad 7s on SR rosters atm.
The coaches dont seem to be deeming them as essential, and did not bother with any of the NPC25 7s.

Was wondering how the teams were going to fill this position as the season rolled on.
So a move like this is not overly surprising.
The SR26 hookers are starting to look more like a trad 7 than the other SR26 looseforwards do.
Leicester will be fine; except maybe at lineout time, that might be worth a watch.

Someone like Mathis probably would have had more chance at making a full SR roster this season as a winger.

Thats a fair call actually. The only outright 7s getting gametime currently would be Kirifi and Lasaqa.

Was guna mention them as the only two.
Good to see that someone else is right on it.

Getting serious FOMO atm, looks like it's going to be a superb three days.

Yeah mate, I'm heading along

'The Crusaders have lost their last three Super Rugby Pacific matches against Australian opposition; a fourth consecutive defeat in this game would be their outright longest losing run against Australian teams in Super Rugby history.'

Not sure if here is the right place but Sky Sport are offering a free 24 hour pass so people can enjoy watching the new stadium.

@Jnr

The city is absolutely pumping. Dimitri's is busy, all bars are packed and everyone is in different kit. The weekend will be a ripper

I'm jealous of everyone heading to Super Round. Will have to go next year if they do it again.

@Yeetyaah yeah heading down tomorrow.

I had somehow missed they were doing that, what a cool idea and awesome for Christchurch

Gee, crusaders must be really struggling to find a wing in the squad....

In other news, Mathis needs a new phone and a plasterer.

Kanawave on the bench he’s a promising young winger.
U/20s last year.

Just as well he's there, not like the saders have anyone else to cover openside/wing

No only 7s

Stadium looks pretty cool!

Needs to be christened on the right note. My confidence is slightly below high given the absence of Will Jordan.

Much higher than last week though.

Reminds me of a european venue. Very cool.

Told you he's not a team player.
