Okay it worked. Dude on the right.
That's Samipeni Finau.
Also there is an open training next week.
Wednesday, 13th January Hamilton Marist Rugby Club, 147 Old Farm Road, Hamilton East 2.30pm - 4.30pm
There are a few extra players (e.g. Stan van den Hoven, Josh Iosefa-Scott) in this video.
That does look like Rameka Poihipi between O'Neill and Tupaea at the start of the video. I don't know who the player to the left of TTT is though.
@Bovidae with the blonde dreads? Who's the dude on the right of TTT?

@Bovidae with the blonde dreads?
Yes, him.
Who's the dude on the right of TTT?
A tall, white dude. I think it must be van den Hoven.
There might be other extra players throughout the video too.
@Bovidae yeah I had a good look at the video and paused to see if I could see any other players. Also had a quick flick through the squads and couldn't find anyone of that build with dreads.
@Yeetyaah Maybe one of the CM loose forwards? @mikedogz
Blond dyed dreads would be VILIAMI TAULANI
Poihipi has been drafted to the chiefs, but will still play for Canterbury
A new article with the accompanying photo showing van den Hoven and Taulini. Who is that behind Taulini?
The Gallagher Chiefs are taking two of their pre-season January team trainings on the road.

Looks like a club team - where is the official training kit?
@Gunner Saving it for tomorrow. No idea.
The mystery player could be Sefo Kautai.
@RedBeard working at Marist I see in that article.
I need a better picture to be sure, but I think that's Shield Snorters TH prop Joe Apikotoa.
@Stargazer Yeah, it's hard to see clearly. Apikotoa is tall isn't he? So is Norris for comparison.
@Bovidae Yep, Apikotoa is really tall for a prop. Norris is 1.85m (110kg) according to his Chiefs' profile. Apikotoa is 1.91m (and approx. 120kg).
@Stargazer As you can see from the photo Norris is not 1.85 m. He's more like 1.95 m when you see him standing next to loose forwards or locks.
