Northland 2025
-
And another youngster from Mid Northern (was at Waipu last year and has been part of the HP program since last year) plays centre/wing.
Was also in the U20 baabaa squad that played the super teams.
-
This time from Moerewa-United Kawakawa, Hoani Reid, was in the HP side last year as well.
Powerful and deceptively quick midfielder, who could get a decent run atbthe next level as I haven't seen anything of Quentin Nichols this season and we are very light in the midfield.
-
@taniwharugby if he’s anything like his Dad Brandon anything is possible, I know the Blues will be keeping a close eye on his progress as he is genuine line breaker .
-
-
I thought Murphy had already been signed...plays 9 for Kamo.
Hopefully can pressure Nock to lift his game or take his spot
-
Matt letoga, made Northland while playing for battling Hikurangi in 2023, playing only 1 game off the bench for the Taniwha vs NH that year, moved to Mid Northern this season and looks to have shed a few kgs in the process, plays mainly 8.
-
Zac Shanks is a robust and athletic 7 playing for Mid Northern, has been on the fringe of selection for a couple of seasons.
Was very good in yesterday's club final.
-
@taniwharugby well deserved hopefully he can remain injury free

Absolute workhorse

@Landers92 unfortunately Matt Le Toga sustained a serious injury in the club final on Saturday
Possibly ruled out for the season is what i am hearing
Got to feel for Matt worked bloody hard to get his S & C up to speed
Looked in very good shape and ready to make an impact -
@Steven-Harris yep, was helped from the field and then the cart was used to take him from the side of the field to the medical room.
-
Northland squad
Definitely opportunities for some young fellas to step up.
-
@taniwharugby I didn't realise Heenan had returned. He'll finally make his NPC debut
-
Northland side to face Counties in the pre-season match tomorrow.
Good to see Nichols named, hadn't seem him named in club footy this year.
Good chance for a new newbies to lay a marker.
-
@taniwharugby very young side for that game. Hard to get a reading from that. Presume another preseason game?
-
Northland side to face Auckland in Mahurangi on Thursday
-
Not a good afternoon, going down 52-7...yikes
Side Auckland named looked pretty good, but still
