Otago 2020

@Kiwiwomble Yeah like 2012-15 he played centre a lot especially if Ben Smith was there and Peter Breen etc. I personally like Vili in the action and not on the wing but with players in specific positions I can't see him anywhere else. Collins is great at full back, Josh (3rd best in NZ) at 10, and the midfield of Sio and Morris-Lome is perfect as they played together through schools, club and rep. So the wing is the only other spot for him, unless he's a super sub and have Freedom starting on the wing with Jona
@NateHill74 do you think collins is better the koroi at 15 though? captain aside id have koroi ahead of him, collins is solid...koroi is electric

@Kiwiwomble It's a good debate though, isn't it. As you said, it's either leadership and knowledge at full-back or electrifying speed and agility. Personally, Vili would be better as a super-sub and can bring on impact like how Damian McKenzie did for the AB's against France and England a couple of years ago

@NateHill74 yeah, i could see that
i guess thats why i was wondering if collins could move to the midfield, a proper playmaker at 15 and the leadership/experience closer to the action in the midfield
not a fan of captains in the outside backs...just too far from whats going on

@Kiwiwomble That's true kind of the same with Ben Smith at the Highlanders, maybe add co-captains like Southland. Maybe have Liam Coltman, or Slade McDowall as a captain, which also has the backs/forwards leaders too.

hoping the highlanders has answered some questions for Otago
10. Ioane
11. Nareki
12. sio
13. collins
14.?
15. KoroiThat could actually do some damage this year in the championship, bulk of our backline paying/training together during super rugby

I hate how resign and resign have opposite meanings in describing pro sports people's futures

I don’t but I think @NateHill74 might
But Walden moved to the naki didn’t he?

Yeah, confusing Wiki page...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teihorangi_WaldenI've only seen him play NPC in the last couple of years so I guess that was my poor assumption.

Wonder if that’s true he’s only got 10 games in the last couple of years for the naki, would have been better staying down south!

@Kiwiwomble That's only 2018. The info hasn't been updated since 12 October 2018.
@Stargazer makes more sense

@Kiwiwomble Confirmed today Otago has brought prop Josh Hohneck, former highlander No8 Nasi Manu and former Auckland club winger Freedom Vahaakolo into its Mitre 10 Cup squad for this year. Vahaakolo has been carving it up in Dunedin club rugby this season apparently
