    Just heard Tony Brown say on the radio that Fakatava is good to go. Will play the 1st half this week.

      Has his NZ eligibility been sorted yet?

          @tim ok, this is getting really weird now, he played during the NPC didn't he? is there something in Dunedin thats actually causing issues

          “We're not quite sure where [Solomon] is at,” Brown said on Thursday. “It’s just going to take a bit of time.
          

          I dont think they can possible NOT know where he is at so really sounds like its too personal for them to talk about

            I guess we can start looking toward next season

            i guess we can assume everyone else is either still contracted or being negotiated with?

            Collins has been a good reliable squad player, hasn't had may MotM's but also hasn't lost many for us, especially since moving to midfield

            Tokolahi has been a great asset too

            Ben-Nicholas has never really shone, not sure we'll miss him much

            Disappointed Hemino is off, hes a real talent

                  I don't get it - just had a quick browse of the article and isn't Cully just reporting the truth? Doesn't seem anything offensive in the article.

                        thats fair enough, i did agree with @bones though, seemed he was just reporting on things the Brown had actually said, not wild speculation or anything

                          Solomon's reaction is a joke. Normalising mental health as a conversation is where we've moved to, and that's literally what Cully has done - complete with quotes from the coach, FFS.

                            im really starting to think rugby might not be doing him any good and he might want to properly step aside and just work on himself

                              He might be outraged without even reading the article.

                                  @nepia What throwing back to James Haskell, Ben Te'o, Joe Marchant, Piers Francis etc.
                                  None of them really showed their ability down here in New Zealand

                                    could be a master stroke from Browny, get the all conquering crusaders to get them up to speed and then bring them back

                                    I assume this could be to do with Alaimalo, if he actually steps away we'll need another outside back
