            @bobily2 just saw on insta someone say it’s Rohan wingman? Some young bloke just training with them?

            He's an 19 year old prop - should make the u20 team this year. He looked pretty good last year for the Highlanders U20s.

            Rohan Wingham. I was sitting next to his parents watching the NZ Schools trial game in 2020. His scrum went backwards that day.

            Yep but did it go backwards because of him, or the whole pack, which is often the case.

              Wingham made the NZ Schools squad so obviously has talent. I remember him being mobile around the field. The other team had the two best schoolboy props IMO.

              Here were the packs:

              HADEN XV
              1 Rohan Wingham (Kings High School)
              2 Aminiasi Toga (St Andrew's College)
              3 Harris McRobbie (Rangiora High School)
              4 Alan Craig (St Kentigern College)
              5 Fabian Holland (Christchurch Boys' High School)
              6 Ollie Haig (Otago Boys' High School)
              7 Will Bason (St Kentigern College)
              8 Te Rama Reuben (St Kentigern College)

              WHETTON XV
              1 Mason Tupaea (Hamilton Boys' High School)
              2 James Mullan (Rangiora High School)
              3 Havila Molia (St Paul's Collegiate)
              4 Jadin Kingi (Sacred Heart)
              5 Jamie Hannah (Christchurch Boys' High School)
              6 Torian Barnes (St Andrew's College)
              7 Fletcher Anderson (Christ's College)
              8 Wallace Sititi (De La Salle College)

              The Haden XV actually had more bulk at lock.

                Just heard Tony Brown say on the radio that Fakatava is good to go. Will play the 1st half this week.

                  Has his NZ eligibility been sorted yet?

                      @tim ok, this is getting really weird now, he played during the NPC didn't he? is there something in Dunedin thats actually causing issues

                      “We're not quite sure where [Solomon] is at,” Brown said on Thursday. “It’s just going to take a bit of time.
                      

                      I dont think they can possible NOT know where he is at so really sounds like its too personal for them to talk about

                        I guess we can start looking toward next season

                        i guess we can assume everyone else is either still contracted or being negotiated with?

                        Collins has been a good reliable squad player, hasn't had may MotM's but also hasn't lost many for us, especially since moving to midfield

                        Tokolahi has been a great asset too

                        Ben-Nicholas has never really shone, not sure we'll miss him much

                        Disappointed Hemino is off, hes a real talent

                              I don't get it - just had a quick browse of the article and isn't Cully just reporting the truth? Doesn't seem anything offensive in the article.

                                      Solomon's reaction is a joke. Normalising mental health as a conversation is where we've moved to, and that's literally what Cully has done - complete with quotes from the coach, FFS.

                                        im really starting to think rugby might not be doing him any good and he might want to properly step aside and just work on himself

                                          He might be outraged without even reading the article.

                                          He should join the fern, that’s how we do things around here.
