[Mr Fish]

Did someone mention a few weeks ago that Mitch Jacobson had retired or am I imagining that?

[Bovidae]

I said I was told Ayden Johnstone had retired. Mitch is playing for Hautapu.

Ah it was Kane Jacobson being referenced.

Basically, don't be brother of an All Black and called Kane...

Not sure if it’s been mentioned anywhere but Miracle Failagi has joined the Shields Snorters for the NPC.

A 2 year deal.

Canterbury have announced that Andrew Knewstubb is signed for this season

[MacDazzler]

Reuben is with Manawatu this year I believe unless something has changed recently. He played a game for Freyberg a few weeks ago in the Manawatu club comp.

[Landers92]

And there goes the domino I was speaking of

[SouthernMann]

Are the Canterbury selectors drunk?

[Steven Harris]

Hearing from a source Du Plessis Kirifi has signed for North Harbour for the Bunnings NPC
Wants to be closer to his partner Mila Reuelu-Buchanan who plays netball for the Northern Stars
For me personally I would place this one more in the rumour basket as North Harbour don’t have a lot of cash floating around at the minute but on saying that would totally understand if he is on the move but also do know he’s a passionate Wellington boy .
Also unusual because I believe Harbour already have 2 sevens in Jed Melvin and Karl Ruzich
I will follow up with a contact at Harbour

[Bovidae]

Going for youth at halfback.

Canterbury squad:

[zedsdeadbaby]

I’m sorry, what on earth is this “fly halves” we speak of

[taniwharugby]

@zedsdeadbaby nekminut we will be naming our teams:
15-9 then 1-8

[UpTheHarbs]

@zedsdeadbaby You mean first fives?

[zedsdeadbaby]

It’s a bloody debacle.

Also I note Canterbury spelt it Fly Halfs too.

Give me my fraction named positions any day.
