Otago 2022
-
all pretty cool, interesting these guys with "pedigree" are at johnnies rather than OB's or Kings, hopefully some guys to look out for in the future
no idea Foster was still knocking out dunners
-
@Kiwiwomble gawd Joseph's son is the spitting image, wouldn't know the fella on the left was Maugers kid if it didn't say tho
-
@SouthernMann I think so, also Finn Hurley, Holland or Wingham. Holland obviously will be part of Otago squad.

Gilbert -
I would be expecting Gilbert to be in the 10 group, especially as a starting Super Rugby 10. Freedom also available in the outside backs. I reckon Faleafaga and Asi will likely be in the outside back group, as well as Finn Hurley too.
We have some really good props available.

yeah, a bit uncertain about Vahaakolo, he put that weird post up last week
-
I see it. Certainly looks like he is calling time on his career.
-
@SouthernMann which is sad, seemed like a good bloke when i met him in melbourne the other week and would honestly be a better option than gregory
-
@macmanus Interesting. Al Momoisea (a Napier Boys' old boy) was still playing for Napier Pirates earlier in the club season. He must have moved to Otago in May. He played for the Shield Snorters U19 team at the Jock Hobbs Memorial U19 tournament in 2017, so I assume he's been in our academy.

@Higgins said in Otago 2022:
@macmanus I was referring to the High Performance Training Squad you posted when mentioning the two University players.
...and i think he's saying the top uni players are already above this level and still with the super squad, so the actual otago squad will still have loads of uni players
-
Pretty sure that high performance team didn't include any Highlanders U20 players either. There were five Uni players in there, plus one with the Canes. Uni is likely to provide Ricky Jackson, Josh Dickson, Josh Hill, Sean Withy, Josh Timu, Thomas Umaga-Jensen and potentially Will Stodart and Jeremiah Asi. Not living down there I'm not 100% sure on players.
