    @Crazy-Horse agree mate. I couldn’t watch all 80 minutes of every game but watched a condensed version of each game and liked what I saw from many ‘no name’ players that seemed to take their chance.

    I also liked the variation in styles. Super rugby teams have a lot of sameness and maybe I’m a bit jaded from the last couple of years of those teams playing each other a thousand times - the NPC did show that there is still some imagination and innovation in NZ rugby.

    Only shame was that there wasn’t any finals to top off a great season…

    @Bovidae I wonder if Ellison will be enticed into a head coaching role? Seems to have a good standing with the players.

    @Canes4life And more importantly, wonder if Leo can be cajoled into coaching Kaponga in Div2/3 in the Naki comp?😂 He did take a couple of traings this season!

    @taniwharugby I was just reading that article myself. Interesting that there is a push for a salary cap, below what a lot of PUs currently spend on players.

    @taniwharugby Ughh.

    Although it is understood some affected provinces had already looked at the prospect of raiding other provinces to fill potential playing gaps that could come in a World Cup year.

    @Stargazer wonder if that is the team that rhymes with Spasman 😉
