@Chris said in Highlanders 2025:
dislocated his kneecap last week
what the fuck?
Any half decent professional league and this would have been breathlessly reported before he had even got to the hospital for his scans.
8-10 weeks is an eternity in a comp this short

My fuck up was a an old post sorry to scare the landers fans.

ironically, a game camera like we use that follows the ball automatically is not a hell of a lot more, $2-3k

Throw in another couple grand and it's just a day of meals for the squad, should cover the camera and my airfare.

Right, finally time to engage with rugby again. Do I dare get any hopes up at all for this season. Some relatively good news, apparently Haig will be more 4-6 weeks rather than 10

There might be some skull-duggery at play regarding the locking situation. The Highlanders wanted to pick Josh Tengblad in their squad this season but were denied by NZR… don’t be surprised if he sees the field this year.
Both Tengbald and Tayne Harvey are rated as future ABs internally (presumably along with Pledger) so could be a good crop coming through

@Bovidae said in Highlanders 2025:
NZR will be reluctant to give dispensation for a young tight forward when he has yet to even play NPC.
I’m sure you’re right, but I guess the Highlanders may look to use this pre-season game as proof he can cope with the physicality.
