Wellington Lions 2020

@Canes4life "apparently" Not out for season, Heard a rumour Numias out for another 3 weeks due to knee reconstruction over a month ago. and will be avail for selection sooner then we think
@BerhamporeNinja this is great news. I heard Armstrong might not be out for the whole season either. He should be back late October all going well.

@mikey07 what a shame, i highly rate Filipo. he played well last time he played in the lions. maybe the bus forced him out?
@BerhamporeNinja I feel he is still paying for his misdemeanor a couple of years ago which is a shame. Everyone deserves a second chance.

Not sure if anyone else noticed this but the Wellington Lions have moved one of their home games to Porirua's Jerry Collins Stadium, against Ta$man on 31 October.

@Canes4life what an awesome idea save on costs, only trouble is where’s the pie cart going to go

@Higgins i find Kafatolu does nothing at club level but seems to do really well at Mitre10, and Kaliopasi is a good ball carrier but a poor scrummager. with the extra pounds he has, im surpised hes been picked im sure there are other props in wellington region that can do the job. Setivieni Paogo would of been good but chooses the thug life

I’m not so convinced about Kafatolu to be he seems to do nothing special and seems very average.

Apparently there may also have been a third chance not far north of his home domicile but think the intended victims' club managed to sort it out before anything could happen, that's if the word doing the rounds is to be believed.

Unless I'm misunderstanding his latest instagram post, 2020 was Trent Renata's last year and he's hanging up his boots.
@Stargazer He’s been solid but not spectacular for the lions and I know I’ll cop flak for this but I’m half of the time he spent here.
