    Quite the rise for Noah Hotham. First year out of school and he will make his 1st class debut.

    A name I didn't recognize - I presume a halfback.

    Yes. He went down to Otago after leaving Hamilton BHS last year but has ended up at Ta$man. Hotham was the NZ Schools halfback last year and in the Highlanders U20s this year.

    If you watched the Ta$man-Southland game Hotham was the young kid sitting next to Clarke Dermody in the stands.

    @stargazer 123kg and 21 years old.

    A big lad.

    He's not actually that far short of being twice the size I was when I was 21. And around that time I flatted with a guy who went on to prop for Canterbury and he would only have been midway between me and Matt!

    Yeah he is a big unit as @stargazer said he is in the Crusaders Academy intake for 2021.

    Go Of Plenty, wait nope, Go the Invitational XV, wait nope, go a good game of rugby!

    Looking forward to seeing how Parata goes. @Chris-B why isn't Renton getting a start amongst these B teamers?

    @nepia He's had plenty of minutes?

    The guy who is MIA is Taina Fox-Matamua. I presume he is another on the injured list given they've called up Koloamatangi.

    A few Ta$man players likely to be in Moana Pacifika/Drua sights.

    Sam Moli a good bet if no-one else has signed him.

    Sam Matenga would be a decent pick-up - solid scrummager. Not sure his ethnicity, but if he's related to Margaret Matenga, I think she was a Cook Islander.

    Levi Aumua. Taina Fox-Matamua.

    Cirikadaveta already announced for the Drua.

    Steven Harris already speculating Tavatavanawai is going to MP.

    Veveni Lasaqa was really good for TBC and the Chiefs U20s but is a 7. There are plenty of other U20 players in that team.

    @bovidae Yeah, Josh Bartlett is one of them.

    Also, finally Jeriah Mua (NZU20, 2017 Hastings Boys' champions team).

    @snollygoster For one giddy moment I thought The Steamers had snaffled the Barracuda as yet another invitation player after looking at the player featured on the team sheet. I gave it a closer look and thankfully found it is not so, The Barracuda would never prostitute himself that low!

    Sorry if this has been covered but do we know when this game is?

    The Ta$man graphic says Sunday

    The Steamers graphic says Saturday

    This game doesn't show up on the Bunnings NPC website.

    I had to look twice to realise they have snaffled our former centre Trael Joass.

    They've tried to hide him behind an O'Flaherty! 🙂

    No use using him against us - we keep a large chunk of kryptonite in the clubrooms at Traf. Park! 🙂

    Macca Springer apparently only turned 18 this year, according to those Crusader profiles. He looks very good for someone so young.

    Why are both teams lining up so many inexperienced players at the same time ? Is there an agreement between them ?

    I think it is a non championship game so no points awarded.
