    With Miller and Faleafaga coming through. I highly doubt we will be chasing a inexperienced player. I sniff a journeyman

    @SouthernMann agreed, and I think millar has grown and settle a lot, having a sharp shooter at the death could be a real asset

          Would be quite happy if it is Broughton. Seems a real talent. Reminds me of Elliot Dixon.

              @SBW1 starting? I thought it was his first game. Didn't miss a beat.
              Missed a shocker of a tackle though.

                  He is. Will be an interesting battle between Dickson, Selby-Rickett, Parkinson and Holland for the three locking spots. One of the few areas we have depth.

                      Pretty sure they confirmed Evans isn't coming back. Will be the four locks, plus Max Hicks as well.

                        I rate Max Hicks a lot. But with all these locks, I could see him moved to the blindside. A combo with him plus MMT and Harmon could be interesting.

                              @Kiwiwomble Plenty of info about him in that media release. Sounds like he's coming for the "experience" of coaching Super Rugby. It reads like a signing for one year only.

                                    @Dan54 already "after the NPC" for some of us 😉

                                    as i get older i get more excited about good coaches coming on board, flashy players have more often failed for us over the years, our best players have often been those getting a second shot to prove themselves of locals building on combinations....both more reliant on good coaches

                                      That's not Nick Evans... even Mark Ozich would've far better choice.

                                        @Asterik6 thats kind of assuming it just up to us (the Highlanders), we dont know they havent been talked too and didn't want to come down south or didn't want an assistant role or didn't want a short term deal
