What and who does your team need?

Hurricanes
Most pressing need is a quality lock. Surely we can lure Scott Barrett to join his brothers??? That would be an ideal signing, and doesn't seem unlikely.
Could also do with more quality in the propping department. Other than that, we're pretty sussed... could probably do with a bit more depth at halfback, but that's getting picky.

Where are the Barretts originally from? What caused them to end up at different franchises?
 
Blues - We just need to learn how to defend...

I mean the Blues tend to score 20ish points per game, but struggle to keep other teams out, so there have been games that we've lost despite being ridiculously clinical with ball in hand.

I'd like to see more Welsh boys playing in the centers for us too. I rate Lee-Lo and Haliholo really highly, but 12 and 13 is a bit of a problem for Wales when it comes to strength in depth, so ideally we'd have at least 1 Welsh player starting most games. Luckily we've signed Jack Williams from Leicester, so looking forward to seeing how he does.

With a bit of luck we'll be able to bring Halfpenny back to Cardiff too, even if it probably makes more sense for him to go to the Scarlets as they're losing Liam Williams.

From Taranaki, which up until a couple years ago was Canes territory..... so they're Canes boys at heart. Beaudy went straight into pro rugby and into the Canes set up out of school. Scott and Jordie went to Canterbury (Crusaders territory) out of school to study, so inevitably came through that set up. Luckily Jordie was lured back to the Canes last year from Canterbury before he could commit to the Saders. Scott was never really a hot prospect, so he was never lured back and therefore just progressed through Canterbury to the Crusaders set up. I have hope he'll come home though!

Two Barretts is already unfair, so what about three of them? I myself am a Canes fan but this is too much, we can't let other teams point their fingers at us, complaining about a so-called conspiracy.
