Taleni Seu still on the long road to recovery from the same injury that has struck down Brodie Retallick
The latest injury will unfortunately keep Seu out of Waikato’s campaign for the year – which is a major disappointment, given it will be his first season with the province.“It’s coming along well,” Seu said of his shoulder at the recent Mitre 10 Cup launch.
“It’s been about four months. I had surgery two months after I’d done it. I’ll be back playing in December.

It looks like Junior Laloifi didn't make the cut. One of the few standouts for the Turbos last year. If he's not injured, another province who needs a winger/fullback should pick him up.

@Nogusta said in Mitre 10 Cup - news, injuries etc:
@mikey07 pretty sure he signed with some Italian club in the Pro 14 comp?
Yes, he signed with Zebre, but according to the media release of his signing as well as of the opening of the 2019/2020 Pro14 season, he's still under contract with Manawatu and will only arrive in Italy after the Mitre 10 Cup.
It's a bit strange; he was still playing club rugby finals in Manawatu two weeks ago. Maybe he asked for an early release from Manawatu?

@Bovidae Far out nearly a full strength team. Hopefully Waikato put out the same. Hopefully they actually announce their team too.

No chance. Who played against Hawke's Bay?
Looking at a photo on the Mooloo website it looks like Jahrome Brown is back from his stint with the Brumbies.
If the weather is OK I am tempted to drive down to Otorohanga.

@Bovidae That's probably the first time that Waisake and Kini play for the same team in the same game!
@Stargazer A very strong backline when you add in Walden.

I like the old one better. I haven't seen any media about it yet.
