    @mariner4life Depends on how much they're paying Nonu. If SBW stays fit then probably Nonu spends a fair bit of time warming the pine.

    But Sonny hasn't stayed injury free in recent times and it's also RWC year, so there will be R&R in play.

    Good question is whether Nonu will be happy playing a sort of Mike Delany backseat role if it comes to that.

    Not a signing without risk - but, it adds a bit of intrigue.

      Maybe Tana sees it as similar to when he played for the Chiefs - a guy who wont play all matches but can be a decent filler when needed?

          I'd rather see Nonu at 12 than Rieko.

              Another stupid selection from Tana. Nonu better be a team man this time, and leave his ego at the door. He was extremely distruptive last time he was with us.

              I assume he's having a crack at the ABs?

                                        I like Wellington, but I've never experienced stronger wind anywhere in the world. And that's not just at the Beehive!

                                          Nigel Yalden said today that he believes that TJ Faiane is with the Blues for next year.

                                          That's three 12s, so Leger may be the odd man out. Still interested if Tele'a is on a full contract.
