    Ah nice - I thought he looked promising in his couple of games he did play in first grade.

      The boys are back at training today.

      New signings being teased - the full squad will be announced next week. Appears that DPK will also stay with Wellington, so another false rumour posted in the NPC thread.

      Is the former Hurricane James Blackwell?

      When was DPK rumoured to be heading to North Harbour? Hadn’t heard that one.

          The boys are getting some guesses on what the new jersey will be like.


          I hope it will be based off the 1996/1997 jersey…

          or the 1998-2000 jersey (which was actually remade as a retro two years ago).

            The new jersey has been revealed, and it's the same one that we've been wearing for the past 11 years except it's got a good old collar to mark our 40th anniversary.

            alt text
            All our merch this year is a nod to our history, with the 96/97 and 98-00 jerseys being the inspiration behind the gym tees, the 30th anniversary jersey for the training jersey, and the use of the old wordmark logo as well. I was hoping either one of the first two would be our jersey for the year.

              13 new boys in our squad - a few of them were on development contracts last year.
              Full squad to be announced later today.

                I was wondering if Zinzan Hansen would make the squad. I had noticed he had returned to play for Massey. He never really got many opportunities for Waikato.

                          Interesting Suafoa was named in the squad. I thought his days would be done.

                            He's got a star against his name which states he is unavailable for selection.

                                    Any word on Mark Tele'a? He's not named in the 23 to take on Manawatū so he must be injured or rested.

                                        Any updates on our current injury status?
                                        Ruzich, Tele'a, Banks and Gage Jackson (last week's debutant) are out of the 23 to face Hawkes Bay on Saturday.
                                        Barham, Vikena and I think Pellegrini are all injured after the loss to Manawatu.
