A good Morrinsville man, but I assume he has signed a RA contract of some sort.

Yes wasn’t he in the Wallabies training camp a few weeks ago when Rennie invited 40 players.

Pretty sure Keats was already picked up by the Canes in 2010 prior to Hammett getting there in 2011.
Given how things played out with Weepu, I think NZ rugby was/is pretty happy with Smith going to the Highlanders given Weepu was already at the Canes and his opportunity came quicker down south.

@ACT-Crusader yeah I remember thinking Smith was pretty cake when he first stepped foot on the scene - probably similar to Christie 2+ years ago.

@Mackerzzzz for some reason I thought Lord was cook island but I don't really know

Howden and Moorby would be a couple good additions. I would also have Delany over Prinsep.
I don’t think Flanders and Morgan are eligible are they?
Also, Umaga-Jensen is Samoan.

I assume this squad will be named shortly. They've gained 2 halfbacks and a prop from the ABs, although Lomax was always at long odds to make the ABs. More importantly, that haven't lost a player as a bolter to the ABs.

They also got Norris at prop too.
