    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 .

    @kev I'm more thinking injury wise, hasn't played all season that I have seen.

    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.

    @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.

    @taniwharugby I didn't realise Heenan had returned. He'll finally make his NPC debut

    @Duluth yeah signed on early this year.

    He wanted to return and give something back to Northland, he will add valuable experience.

    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?
