Unwanted Hurricanes rugby captain Andrew Hore has somewhere to call home until the end of this year.

The All Blacks hooker has signed to play his domestic rugby for Taranaki this season after not having his contract renewed by the Wellington-based Super 15 franchise.

It will mark Hore's 11th national provincial championship season in Taranaki colours.

The Taranaki Rugby Union said Hore was to play in a pre-season match today against Waikato at Te Awamutu and it hoped to have his services for several championship matches, All Blacks commitments permitting.
