[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 669094, member: 24910"] I'm not sure if we necessarily need another 10. Sopoaga and Parker are sure to be back, and I would assume Renata will be in the main squad this year too (and is handy cover for 10). Last year we did have Willie Ripia (for some unknown reason?) so we may look to replace him with another 10. As I've mentioned I would be very surprised if Mo'unga isn't contracted to the Crusaders, and McGahan will almost certainly be sticking with the Blues. Kerr would certainly be an option but can't seem to stay fit, so I agree with Mr Fish that he may look to head overseas. Basically that leaves us with one option - McKenzie. I still think he has a lot of work to do, but he certainly has some talent, and could thrive outside Smith with his attacking style (especially under the roof in Dunedin). I would like to see him play a few more matches for Taranaki (preferably some tighter matches so we can see how he deals with the pressure), but he is probably who I would be considering at the moment (if they want another 10..).
