Josh Lord looks like a great prospect. Only 18 and at 2.02 metres he's definitely one to keep an eye on.
Also, I'm not sure his DOB on the Taranaki website is correct. His last year at school was in 2018 when Lord was in the NZS team, and I don't think he left a year early. More likely 19, so still a kid to be playing in the tight five at M10 Cup level.

You're right. Just checked wiki and it says he played for Taranaki last year, so I doubt he would have been 17 when he played for them. I like the look of him, plenty of aggression, a good work rate and has the frame to potentially play at the highest level. Suddenly we seem to have a few good locks coming through in Vaa'i, Darry, Lord etc. An area of concern is now looking exciting.
