    Now this is one of these rumours where the contact is not 100% sure that the destination is corect but maybe someone down in the Bay can fish around

    James Tucker is playing club rugby for Hamilton Marist this weekend.

    I saw on social that Mosese Bason who has long been earmarked as a future Hurricane played for Hamilton Marist (I think it was). Maybe Waikato and the Chiefs have picked him up. If so, I will be gutted.

    I see he played last Sat as Hamilton OB had a bye last round. Maybe Micah Fale had a quiet word. Waikato won't be short of loose forward options, so I doubt it was anything more than getting a game. I went to watch TK Howden play for Melville in a club game a few years back but it was just a favour to the coach.

    Hope that’s the case. Looks to have all the ingredients to be a top class no 8 in the next few years.

    Canterbury halfback shake up will be interesting. Hearing there is some movement with Nic Shearer off to a different region and a swap occurring between 9s from provinces. Interesting that Riley Williams is still playing club rugby in Auckland also

    Yes, Nic Shearer has signed with Southland.

    I believe James White is signed long term. Shun Miyake is still playing club rugby in Chch and will be close to another contract. Caleb Makene also is another option but I expect them to look outside the region and pick up an experienced 10 as they have done in the past.

    Also on a side note, Max Hughes has also returned from Japan and has been Turing out for Sydenham in the 10 jersey, although he is primarily a 9

    @Steven-Harris Mark Tele'a gone before NPC? Luke Donaldson did start off at Canterbury then a season at BOP, and I believe tried to make the Auckland squad last year which probably explains the switch to Harbour.

    He was a Shirley club player but is on the bench for Sydenham this week,
    I think he played club rugby in the Taranaki last year.
