I am going to keep playing presidents until my son can run along side me. At 13 he is the same height as me so he will be big enough in a two or three years.

Having a look at the East Coast squad I see that Josh Coffin is a loan player. He's previously played for King Country. Also Joe Royal is another loan player.

@Bovidae Renata Roberts-Te Nana is in thier squad too, played for us at the back end of last season after returning from MLR, unsure if this is as a loan player, probably not.
Reckon he will score plenty!
@taniwharugby I didn't list him as that had already been mentioned. He is listed as a Ruatoria City player. They have 4 loan players in their squad.

Joe Royal has been around a bit hasn't he? Wasn't he with a few teams before Counties-Manakau? He actually got a fill in run with Moana Pasifika too didn't he? And is Joe Coffin a relation to Joe the prop (I think) that was around a few years back? Will be interesting to see a few Heartland games live on sky this season too.
