              No idea. Maybe Kata? Assuming the rumour is correct.. I don’t think we’d recruit him as a winger?

                I wouldn't think Auckland rugby would be dumb enough to recruit him as a centre. But then again it appears they're dumb enough to recruit him full stop so I should just return to my cave.

                    @duluth its times like this you might find it useful

                    the guy was a pretty damaging runner, but tackling and distributing were not strong points

                      He was my most disliked Warriors player before they decided to hire straight up thugs like Lodge.

                      He has an average passing game and his defence was poor and that's in league where he's standing on one side of the field. He'll be all at sea defending at centre.

                      Please select him there for the Magpies game.

                          Ok so he's not a centre.

                          He had some goodish moments on the wing for the Brumbies so I think he'll handle the step down to NPC. If the rumour is true..

                          Maybe that other league guy as a centre

                                @nepia yea Katas definitely signed with Auckland. Its the reason Grindlay left. With Tumua Manu, Faiane AND Tele'a not there he was told he was next in line but they changed there tune. He was none too happy so gapped it.

                                  Auckland have been featuring players on their Instagram stories. Looks like the loose forwards will include Choat, Jones, Tuipulotu, and Vai.

                                          Former Reds hooker Albert Anae on the bench.

                                          Jamie Lane on the bench for both preseason games. Wonder who this season's locks will be?

                                          Scrafton
                                          Kalapu
                                          Lane
                                          Dalzell
                                          Beehre

                                          Maybe Tuipulotu covers lock? Wikipedia lists him at 195 cm (6 ft 5 in) and 115 kg.
