I don't really know why this has gotten so much airtime. I can categorically say this is a bullshit rumour from a website that is probably a scam lol.

Yeah mate, we all know, it's January, keeping the discussion moving.

no one is actually arguing that its not rubbish, its only 7-8 post in the offseason so hardly loads of airtime

In other news JRK is in Dunedin and was at training yesterday. Unsure whether he is training to any level.
@frugby dont know why youre being a bit weird about it, i saw a headline and asked if anyone knew anything else, generally accepted as rubbish and so we move on. the chance someone had resigned is just ever so slightly different to JFK coming back form the dead and deciding to play rugby in Dunedin
half this thread is people talking about rumours they'd heard and looking for confirmation of rebuttal

Out of curiosity. Do you have a link to the story?

@SouthernMann i tried to re find it (when i had the time to read it) but no luck which just supports the idea it was rubbish and probably taken down
Edit: more thorough search found the post, now on my comp even the link looks dodgy

its just a highlanders fans group of facebook, but no real need to check it out

Hopefully. That way any talk of "Brick Wall Defence" Stevenson going to loig can end.

Highlanders social media still on holiday? Must be the only NZ team not posting anything from training at the moment.
On JRK, he isn’t training with the intent of playing just yet. Only rehab at this stage. Still no word on whether he will play this super season or not.

Don't be stupid, he was assassinated.

@Landers92 think we are the only team without a dedicated social media person... which is braindead behaviour. There is an outsourced company + an independent who makes a few graphics.
@frugby sounds about right, until we truely know thats this social media thing will take off i dont see the point in really committing to it, maybe we have the photocopier running making some fliers

My mate is no longer the social media guy there so the Landers have probably gone from having the best content to nothing.

@Canes4life can we ask if your mate decided to leave or did the Landers decide not to have a dedicated person?

He left on his own accord, he's doing free lance stuff now. Maybe they haven't hired anyone else yet.

@Canes4life They have, seems to be a combo deal. Sammy G Design is listed as head of content on the website, and she designed the graphic for the squad naming.
There is another company who I believe is helping with broader marketing and has done the videography stuff.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the captain pick might be really left field.
I think 2014 is a decent thing to base it off, Nasi Manu was relatively leftfield at the time, and he was paired with Ben Smith.
Realistically the captain has to be someone who is a nailed starter, which leaves EDG, Ma’u, Holland, Dunshea, Withy (?), Fakatava, Millar, Tele’a, Tavatavanawai
My bet is on Dunshea.
