Cantebury squad announcement. As expected, an extremely solid squad with plenty of depth. Still got some guys named that are long in the tooth but not doubt valuable at this level.
Cant help but think what talent they are blocking from coming through though. Is Willie Heinz really necessary?! The guy turns 38 later this year….

Good for Poihipi's ongoing development.

@Mr-Fish Quite surprised Alex Harford isn’t named. Has he switched provinces with being with the blues widers this year?

Yeah I agree Hienz,Crotty need to move on so they can develop the next tier of players.
Nick Shearer could also cover First five has played a bit there for Christ college. -

@Chris has been playing for New Brighton the back half of this season at 10. Wasn’t aware he was still signed on in Japan, in saying that so is Billy Harmon and he’s named. Who knows, we will find out soon either way.

Two Ponsonby boys, Tuipulotu and Peni with Southland for preseason v Otago. I might have to be a secret Stags supporter this NPC - Although I would prefer them to play in our Club Gallaher Shield Final this weekend!

Another Ponsonby boy, Sam Wye is with that team that plays in Black and White -
