@stargazer sure, I can believe that. Just I don't see too many time trials happening in the middle of a game of rugby.

R Wright, M Matich and T Tua from Northland, also Jack Ram but as he has been capped by Tonga means he is very unlikely.
Have heard whispers a couple of others are being looked at, a few that would certainly not let anyone down but expect lots of teams have players to fit that.

Emerson reminds me of Lowe, just a bit smaller. Not so sold on this much vaunted pace he possesses though.
Emerson is a bit smaller, but not as good as Lowe, in saying that is Emerson much smaller than Goosen?

Goosen is 4cm taller than Emerson, who's 174cm according to his Magpies profile.

Goosen is 178cm? Hmmm, I always thought he was smaller. Now I can't make my joke about the Canes allowing midgets but only from Wellington. Hurrumph.

Yes to Sowakula - hes been great for the 'Naki

@stargazer sure, I can believe that. Just I don't see too many time trials happening in the middle of a game of rugby.
Scotland had a bloke called James Craig who could do 10.6 for 100 metres and he went on to be a household name.

His Mum and Dad and possibly extended rellies

Josh Ioane (otago)
He's signed with the Highlanders.
Ioane showing skill, composure
He thought someone was pulling his leg when he got a call from the Highlanders coach but Josh Ioane is proving he is ready for the big show. Ioane...

Highly unusual. If any franchise is meticulous about making sure players physical stats are perfect it's definitely the Canes.

Luke Jacobson was signed by the Chiefs along with Tiaan Falcon in August.
I hope Tiaan Falcon won't be used as a fullback but only as a 1st Five.
Great for Luke Jacobson. He has all the qualities to thrive in a better team than the Mooloos. But he is rather light for a 6. Should be used at 7 for the SR requirements. -

He will backup DMac at 1st 5 unless Cooper has other signings in the works.

Listed at 107 kg, the same as Fifita and 2 kg lighter than Kaino and Squire. Jacobson is 20 so will put on more weight with time in the gym.
