@Higgins i guess that means more game time for next “big thing” Proctor.
Seeing him up close he's a big unit. And still 21.
With the Umaga-Jensen lads starting to fulfill their promise and Fainga'anuku also just 21 there's a lot of exciting young midfield talent around to be enthusiastic about. Ennor, too.
Laumape probably saw the writing on the wall.

@mikey07 If only we could say it would mean more game time for Danny Toala ....
Next stop Highlanders or Chiefs?
-
@mikey07 Only problem is they retain the "talented (HB player)" status forever but the "youngster" part only for a fairly limited period!
-
@higgins no worries, we've got your son Riley Higgins coming through the system. No doubt they will give him a 5 year contract aswell.
-
@canes4life He seems to be rather promising but we really can't lay claim to him as a born and bred Magpie and accept that he will one day return to Wellington once we have done the final development work!
@higgins I think you're confusing two brothers? Riley is the Hurricanes U20s player (one of Darren Larsen's favourites, who got so much game time that there wasn't much left for the other midfielders) and older brother Kienan, clearly not wanted by Wellington and therefore trying his luck in Hawke's Bay by playing for T'dale.

@stargazer Ah of course. Thought it a bit tongue in cheek Canes4Life praising a HB player like that. Having said that he does acknowledge we do have some good players and even hints that some of them might deserve a bit more game time (IWL for Blackwell for example) than they get.

I wonder whether Foster gave him the word?
He's stuck around for two years after missing the RWC - missed the possibility of tests last year due to injury and now bailed before any teams were picked this year.
I guess he could see the queue getting longer though - and ALB, Goodhue and Rieko probably having 3/4 spots locked up.

@chris-b or maybe his manager was pro-active and went to Fozzie and asked if he was locked in for 12, Fozzie laughed and laughed, and then realising he was serious, said no.
Loss to NZ Rugby, especially his provincial team afte rhe called players out for not playing for the little teams....
Seriously though, it is a loss to NPC/Super rugby.

@chris-b Havili is surely a lock now after his form from SRA. Jordie can also cover 12/13 if needed so I have no qualms about Ngani making the move overseas.
-
@canes4life Yeah - you'd think so. Especially with Goodhue unavailable.
ALB, Rieko, Havili and PUJ?

Fuck I forgot about that, it's even more hilarious now, what an egg. Good riddance two face.

Nope, any quality (even if not top quality) player fucking off to the Euro/Yen/Pound sucks. Yeah he was a bit of a self important knob, but he was good to watch.

Liecester must be a big chance as a. Centre/Wing

Especially as it will 3 PI nations (minus most/all NH pros) in a row. See some youngsters in the ABs environment if nothing else.
