It would be awesome if it was Zane Kapelli who was fantastic for Tonga at the W.C. Although I don't think he has played super rugby and I seem to remember reading that he signed somewhere but can't find anything about it now.

@Daffy-Jaffy someone in the Landers thread said he might be joining them.

@Duluth Got it....a loosie that played at the RWC, has played SR
Jack Lam?
-
@Dice Jack Lam would've been niiice....
-
That's underwhelming.
I would've preferred guys from inside the region like Choat or Matich
Hopefully he doesn't get in the 23 very often
-
I guess that's the rationale. I don't think he's good enough for that role though
At least there's so many other loosies in front of him that it shouldn't be important.
I assume Choat went overseas because he didn't get a SR contract? Thats the disappointing part.. he had a high ceiling

Big questions over midfield and fullback.
Then the usual issues at halfback and centre.
Tony Lamborn is a disappointing signing IMO.
@Tim I agree ,staggered with the selection of Lamborn...
-
@Tim he’s normally a 10
-
@Tim Blues website list him as - utility 10/15.

Rieko is a midfielder now?
Clearly spent too much time listening to Tana

Seriously, though, whatevrer works for the player. If he thinks his career is at 13, who am I to disagree. Tana did it and nailed it. It still feels a bit weird, mind

@nzzp this could revive Rieko’s career and give him a new focus having to learn a position that if he gets right..anything’s possible
