Should be hearing his intentions for next year soon now that their school season has been completed.
-
@trooa He's already played Blues U18 so he's on the Blues radar (as well he should be). Meanwhile Auckland's assistant coach Tai Lavea coached against him last year so should know all about him.
@kiwimurph Blues also had him in the U20s side in the matches earlier this year. First time they've ever picked a current schoolboy in the U20s team.

Experienced Super Rugby player and coach, Daniel Halangahu will follow his North Harbour coach Tom Coventry to join the Blues for the next two years.
Halangahu will complete his third year as an assistant coach with North Harbour before joining the Blues as the specialist Skills and Lead Backs Coach.

What's MacDonald's role then, attack coach? Or perhaps the real head coach?

Yeah I think MacDonald was called attack coach at that press conference. So something like this?
Umaga - defence
Coventry - fowards
MacDonald - attack
Halangahu - backs
Afeaki - scrumWhat's interesting is that Coventry has all his NH assistants joining him. That puts him in a powerful position when Umaga finally
gets sackedopts for an exciting new challenge in world series rugby -

@duluth UMaga will probably take over from Redman!
@taniwharugby it would be the perfect time for him to join Mitchell and Jones wouldn't it?
As a slight aside, I just realised "Mitchell & Jones" sounds like a great 80's comedy duo.

@mariner4life Eddie and John visit NZ could be a kids programme.

He was. He's not next season.

None of Dave Ellis, Steve Jackson or Alistair Rogers re-applied for their jobs.
