@Stargazer i knew he was off to MLR, but interesting that says former Northland lock, my understanding was he had re-signed, maybe it didn't workout shame if he isn't back, he is a very good npc player.
-
@taniwharugby Maybe he has? A lot of NPC players come back in the MLR off season.

@taniwharugby I agree with @African-Monkey. I wouldn't read to much in the wording they use.

He definitely doesn’t look like a rugby prop anymore. All the best too him, I’m sure he will go well in league.

@Stargazer He's pretty young, only 20. This was his first year of NPC.
