    @Canes4life You provided 4 names after claiming HB had been taking the best of Wellington’s talent. They’re clearly not the best of Wellington’s talent if they left the Canes home province and are struggling to get starts for the Magpies.

    Maybe the best of the hitherto unproven (or should that read as anwanted) young talent coming out of the Bay is better than that coming out of Wellington?

    Yeah, those three Wellingtonians seem to have been surpassed by young HB talent already.

      @Stargazer If we have poached so many players, who are they? Last I looked the likes of Aumua, Fidow, Numia, Savea, Perenara, Garden Bachop (brothers), Umaga Jensen (twins), Proctor, Coles, Toomaga Allen, Goosen all grew up in Wellington. I really don't get your point. I think you just like having a whinge.

      Wasn't one of them poached from the Melbourne Rebels?

            I have always had a soft spot for him after he coached my whangai at Wairarapa-Bush and more so after his efforts with the Magpies but this is certainly testing that to the extreme.

                              Following on from the lock thread, this is good news. Well over 2m, young and plays more like Retallick than Bird.

                                  How did they get nthat past the Residents Association. SPeedway there is restricted to a very finite number of times they can activate the floodlights so the granting of a permit to use the Springs at night for this must have snuck through and caught them on the hop. No doubt all the NIMBYs will be consulting their lawyers to get the fixture canned.

                                      Maximum allowable noise limit at Springs is 89 decibels. I am sure both teams will make sure the game is not exciting enough that the crowd make more than that amount of noise...
