NPC 2025

That's been dealt with above. If we had an integrated NPC / Super competition (this seems the best way to describe the single pro league we need, in order to stop the straw man argument that people want to "get rid" of the NPC), then we would have games over the season that could be spaced pretty well and fill the shop window by meeting the demand there is for the product.
In my preference, we would still have an NPC but it would be amateur, and if there is demand for it, I can't see why those games couldn't be broadcast - especially on free to air, so that kiwis can still enjoy seeing their local club players represent the province.

Ashame that Finn Hurley hasn't featured for Otago.
Was looking forward to seeing him play NPC after he got injured early in Super, thought I saw him named in the squad in one of the earlier rounds but did not see him last week in Nelson. Does anyone know what his status is?

Reagrivated his Super injury prior to the season starting.
Could be available for the very end of the comp. Likely the Landers will pour cold water on that though.
Big shame. He would have carved up.

Thanks SouthernMann. Jesus, that is a damn shame. Hope he has a big 2026.

Can any Naki fans give some insight on how Poliko is performing for this year? He’s just signed a new two year contract with the Canes.

Drew Wild
Chcukong this out there to break up the whole world is falling in we lost by 30 points chat.
Wild is my wildcard. The skinny little kid is great fun to watch. Can really go. Just a good NPC battler who can tear it up.
Plenty of other guys who could get a spot in there too. Of course all opinions are worth fuck all and selection means nothing.

@SouthernMann I think that Dylan Eti has been really impressive and could honestly be close to this list with the couple games of him that I have watched of him
