About this year's charity jersey.
Looks like a picnic blanket

I see Gillies Kaka is leaving Hino Red Dolphins. Not sure whether he's leaving Japan and returning to NZ, but I was wondering. Would you want him back in the Shield Snorters squad to finish his career in black & white? Would he be better than, say, Lolagi Visinia? Gillies just turned 32; Lolagi is 29. Totally different players, physically and skill set.
Also saw the announcement of Toyota Verblitz about players that are leaving the club. Tiaan Falcon isn't on the list (but his contract expires this year). The man who kept him out of the 10 jersey most of the time, Lionel Cronje, is leaving. Interested to see what Tiaan Falcon is going to do. He hasn't played much this year and has been very, very quiet on social media. I wonder whether he's injured ...

The powers that be would not dare tinker with the black and white hoops that have served us so well since 1884. The black stripe up the sides that appears from time to time was almost too much to take but at least the integrity of the hoops remained intact.

@Number-10 I hoped Cooper Flanders would make the squad. Maybe not allowed because of NZ U20s? On the hand, Harry Godfrey is in the squad. Can't imagine Godfrey not making the NZ U20s, although the differnce may be that Godfrey is a signed Magpie.
I hope the HBRU are going to post a proper team sheet with numbers, so I don't have to try to figure it out myself haha. Don't know all the players, so don't know what their positions are. I guess I'll have a closer look at the past weeks' club team lists ...
