    @gt12 canโ€™t recall him running around in the 10 jersey..but someone on the forum might know

    He played first five for CBHS and pretty sure he played first five for NZ Secondary Schools. I don't recall him playing there since he left school - not at provincial level anyway.

    Josh McKay played fullback in the NZ School games against Samoa Schools and Australia Schools, and - indeed - first five-eighth in the NZ Schools game against Australia Barbarians Schools.

    Is Samisoni Taukei'aho contracted to the Chiefs for 2020 ,(He should be)He has impressed me every time he has had a run for the Chiefs.He would be a great impact hooker off the bench ,more impact than Polwart in my opinion.If he isn't contracted he wouldn't be the worst pickup for The Blues or Highlanders.

    @KiwiMurph That's about right, anything more would have been harsh. Nice and fresh to rip into the Crusaders. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

    Prinsep to the blindside and Evans to no 8.

    A three week suspension will free him up nicely in time to take part in a club match against MSP on June 29. Lack of match play will surely count him out of consideration for any Hurricanes match that weekend!

    @Canes4life HOBM not playing last week, but are we expecting the team to have a different captain this week then?

    @Bones is he captain? Apparently according to sources it's the hooker. (will leave him unnamed for now).

    @Canes4life oh shit, I didn't realise he was an ex Cane. I thought it must be the halfback.

    I wonder if something like this will ruin his career, though to be fair I didn't think he was Super quality anyway.

    Something similar has not put an end to the career of K Hunt, but then again I suppose the amount of talent available over there probably played a factor in that. The HOBM player/s could consider making a home in the NRL.
    In all seriousness all players in the NPC and Heartland championships know they can be tested for drugs so you must wonder why a professional athlete would put his livelihood at stake knowing they could be tested. Complete and utter stupidty. The WRFU ripped up the contract of Losi Filipo so they have set a precedent about those sort of things.

    Interesting Josh Timu named in the Otago M10 squad.
    Is that a pointer to Highlanders selection 2020
    He has been going ok for the SW in SR this season.
