      @kiwiinmelb if he can unleash Tedesco closer to the ruck it could be an inspired recruitment

            Is Ethan Roots any good, he has signed a short term deal with the Ospreys. I was just wondering if he was worth signing longer term. Thanks in advance.

              @davies Hi, welcome to the Silver Fern!

              Tbh, I had totally missed the news of his signing with Ospreys.

              I find it hard to answer your question. He has been in the Crusaders environment for a year, but he only played in one game (off the bench) and wasn't re-signed. If I remember it correctly, he was only in the squad because of injuries (and players leaving). No doubt, he'll have learned from that experience, but he's little experience at Super Rugby level.

              Maybe there's someone on the Fern who remembers his games for North Harbour. He has played about 20 games for the province (2 seasons).

                  @davies Quality player. Should suit the tighter forward game up north. Effective carrier and tackler.

                    Good bit of business by the Ospreys I think. Clever signing.

                          @tim He tackled hard carried hard he put a decent blind side flanker shift in, he gave away 1 penalty when back pulled out of ruck instead of getting cleared. And we won so good day for a debut really.

                              @stargazer pretty cool , great to see Collins playing in his more preferred position in the midfield, to be fair i don’t see him as an international rugby player ..but stranger things have happened.

                                    Do you know young fijian centre Etonia Bainivalu (former Crusaders Knights U18) ?

                                      @jauzy019 I had to google him.

                                      Born in Fiji.
                                      A winger.
                                      Former St Bede's College student.
                                      Played for the NZ Barbarians Schools team in 2019 and scored a try against Fiji Schools.
                                      I think he has played for Fiji U20s, but not sure.

                                        Southland Stags’ 2021 prospects have been dealt a massive blow with impressive tight-head prop Siate Tokolahi heading overseas to play.

                                        A big loss for the Highlanders too.

                                          @bovidae and obviously chat about Collins and Regan heading to Wales, less of a blow thanTokolahi but still another season of change for the Highlanders coming i feel
