Le trois-quarts centre des All Blacks Jack Goodhue est sur le point de signer avec le Castres Olympique en Top 14 la saison prochaine.

Midi Olympique indique que le joueur de 28 ans est prêt à rejoindre l’équipe qui a terminé 9e du Top 14 cette saison.
Goodhue, originaire de Northland, a été fidèle aux Crusaders depuis ses débuts en Super Rugby en 2017.
Son parcours en équipe nationale débute en novembre de la même année où il dispute un match amical contre une sélection française et, six mois plus tard, fait ses débuts internationaux contre la France à Dunedin en 2018.
Avec 18 sélections pour les All Blacks et une participation à la Coupe du Monde de Rugby 2019, où il a disputé quatre rencontres. La dernière fois que Jack Goodhue a participé à un camp des All Blacks, c’était en 2022, après quoi il est tombé en disgrâce auprès de l’entraîneur Ian Foster.
Son parcours dans le rugby a commencé à la Mount Albert Grammar School d’Auckland, où il a excellé, notamment en tant que vice-capitaine du First XV, où il jouait avec son frère jumeau Josh.
En 2013, les jumeaux Goodhue ont mené leur équipe à un bilan exceptionnel de 17 victoires sur 20 matchs. Après ce succès, Jack a poursuivi son cursus à la fois académique et sportif en étudiant l’agriculture à l’Université de Lincoln, tout en effectuant ses débuts dans l’équipe de Canterbury en 2014.

Cependant, une malencontreuse blessure au genou l’année suivante a mis un terme à sa saison. Sans se décourager, il a fait preuve d’une résilience remarquable en suivant une rééducation et en s’entraînant avec l’ensemble de l’équipe des Crusaders en 2016. Sa détermination a payé puisqu’il a gagné une place dans l’équipe néo-zélandaise qui a remporté le Championnat du Monde des Moins de 20 ans ainsi que dans l’équipe de rugby à sept des All Blacks.
Les débuts du centre de 1,87 m et 100 kg en Super Rugby sont intervenus en 2017, et ses performances exceptionnelles ont attiré l’attention des sélectionneurs des All Blacks pendant la tournée des British and Irish Lions, ce qui lui a valu d’être intégré à l’équipe d’entraînement élargie.

I’ve actually never heard of the guy (then I don’t watch League as it is boring). But if he is good enough.. then good luck to him. If not, well, he can always return to league.

One angle clearly shows Care diving over a Saints player to kill the ball. 1st yellow, reason given for not Red was player was falling backwards. He was only falling backwards after contact with Lawes. Graham try should have stood. Mitchell did not have both hands on the ball, ball went forward from a Saints boot dragging over it. 2 intentional knock-on's. One of which had an overlap on the outside. If Quins are happy to win by intentional foul play, then it does not say much for them. Would appear to be a bad day for Karl Dickson, also for the RFU in appointing a Ref who spent 8 years as a player at one of the clubs.

Even in this performance you can see what did him in in the test arena..he almost always still runs at the opposition almost ramrod upright making him easier to stop than it should be.

2 Go to commentsInteresting comments about Touch. England’s hosting the Touch World Cup this year and the numbers have exploded since their last World Cup in 2019, something like 70% more teams and 40 nations taking part. And England Touch have made a big thing about how many universities are in their BUCS University Touch Championship as well as Sport England membership. Can only see this growing even more domestically as more people become aware of it

Hitherto so many pundits have been wittering on about Finlay Christie to the point one wondered if they were observing a FC in a parallel universe where the FC they saw wasnt just the mediocre Shayne Philpott project of Fosters hapless AB reign in the real world. Ratima, Perenara and Fakatava are the ONLY logical 9s for Razor now Roigard is crocked.

4 Go to commentsNow if they could just fire the Crusaders ground PA guy who likes to play his dance music and just loves the sound of his own voice the entire game, even when play is going on. And I thought their brass band thing of a few years ago was bad.
5 Go to commentsUnfortunately when you lose by far the two form players this season in Roigard and Aumua, you're left replacing two game changing Tanks with a couple of pea-shooters. Which is also about the speed of TJs pass.
4 Go to commentsBit rich coming from the guy with zero loyalty to anyone or any team, including happily taking a players place in a league world cup squad because well, SBW wanted to play in it and thus an already named player got told he was no longer going. And airing stuff like this, which may or may not be true, doesn't exactly say you're a stand up guy either SBW. Just looking to keep his name in lights as usual.
