The jerseys didn't really clash based on these photos.

As I said it was probably my old eyes and when the players were close it wasn't an issue. I do think that they could have had way more contrast from afar though.

Here are a few quotes from him from 2019.
"Ever since I was young I wanted to be an All Black. I’m still a big fan of them," Manu said. "Especially when it comes to World Cup’s. It’s a pretty big occasion for pretty much all New Zealanders.
"I love [watching] at the moment but one day I would love to play for them."
Legendary playmaker Dan Carter and Waikato superstar Mils Muliaina were his favourites players as a boy.
"Dan Carter is probably my favourite and then there are a couple of Chiefs boys - Mils Muliaina - I used to love watching him," Manu said.

his old man was a handy rugby player
Club player?
Manu has some size, which we don't really have amongst NZ midfielders.

I heard that the Chiefs are going after Joseph Manu from the Sydney Roosters.
I would be more excited about this than I am about RTS.

Does Joey Manu go well? Don't watch league but had a google and he's a big dude and a NRL champ. Only 24 so still has some promise?

He goes really well. Goes at least as well as his often centre partner Mitchell who is an Origin superstar.

Just realised that article about Manu dreaming of the ABs is from last year. Has there been any chatter since then or am I primed to blow my load needlessly again?

@Nepia Geez I wouldn't say origin superstar haha he got dropped after Origin 1 2019 and hasn't played there since but I get your point. Couldn't imagine Joey Manu as a rugby player myself. Solid defensive centre in a strong side. Think the jury is definitely out on that one if the move did happen.
-
Does anyone know what the health status is of Nathan Harris and Atu Moli? Have they recovered from last year's injuries? Can't remember whether Moli played any Mitre 10 Cup, late in the season. @Chris-B?
-
Moli didn't play any NPC.
They would both need to play in the inter-squad game(s) to be considered for the Chiefs opening game. If I am able to go I will try to go to the game this weekend to see who is playing.
