Not sure whether you guys have seen this.
Delays push Rotorua International Stadium out of NPC Home game window
With delays experienced due to COVID, the Bay of Plenty Rugby Union is sadly unable to host Steamers or Volcanix matches at Rotorua International Stadium in 2022.
Steve Watane, spokesperson for the Rotorua Lakes Council, says, "We have experienced a series of delays with contractors undertaking the much needed resurfacing project of the no.1 playing field.”
"Initially, we hoped to have the new field operational by September. Unfortunately, further delays have meant we cannot use the field until the 1st of November."
The delay has seen not only the re-location of Bunnings NPC matches, but also rugby league, football, and other events. -

Had a feeling he would be signed elsewhere. Shame

Just checked the team lists and there is a "Jacob Norris " playing for Tauranga Sports. Could be a handy acquisition if its the same one...
