Even Pegden, of the Dominion Post, talks to an excited Aaron Cruden ahead of his move to the Chiefs.
"All Black Aaron Cruden couldn't stay away.
Cruden has plenty of reasons not to be in Hamilton with the Chiefs. He is recovering from a knee injury suffered in the Rugby World Cup final and, as an All Black, is officially on holiday until January 9, when preseason Super Rugby training resumes.
But, as far as the young first five-eighths is concerned, he's had his holiday and wants to be part of his new Super Rugby team as soon as possible."
