    @stargazer That’s awesome especially for them being in such a hole financially.

    Reading the article about the Highlanders U20s the last paragraph says this:

    Ozich has already returned to Hawke’s Bay to plan for the upcoming Bunnings NPC competition, with the Magpies’ first pre-season game against Waikato just three weeks away.

    I assume this will be the game in Taupo.

    Seems to be good management during COVID disruptions and staff/management taking short term hits for the long term survival.

    Could also be that their sponsors had a boom year. Aren't they held up by the Licensing Trust? Maybe it's a profit share? I imagine that booze sales were quite healthy down there during lockdown.

    Hearing there is a current Auckland NPC lock that has signed for Counties Manukau also Kieran Fonotia is playing club footy in the Manawatu so we may see him in a turbos jersey in 2021

    Seems like the type of old man pick up the Canes would go for.

    @nepia To replace Danny Toala, who makes a successful move to the Highlanders/... where - of course - he gets plenty of game time and scores tries. ... One can hope/dream ... as long he's not going overseas just yet.

    Addition by subtraction for Ta$man.

    Fonotia should play for the MP if it goes ahead.

    @mofitzy_ I'd rather see them give that midfield spot to Sio Tomkinson. That frees up a spot in the Highlanders midfield ...

    Maybe there's room for both.

    Can’t see it happening too often but a back row of Taulani, Papalii and Sotutu sounds pretty good to me.

    It’s ok. We already have Orbyn Leger 😉

    Slade might have to be moved to lock.

    I don’t mind if he’s on the bench. Needs to learn a little control to go with the talent
