    @bovidae I heard that too but think it was a mistake. Tamati Williams has from Akld but don't think jones has.

      Rumours about Fletcher Smith going to the Hurricanes seem to be a weird one, the Hurricanes will already have Garden-Bachop for another year next year, and they just signed James Marshall. Unless Garden-Bachop gets a release.

        @yeetyaah I can see James Marshall playing more Fullback than first five, especially if they give J Barrett a run at 2nd five. Fletcher Smith will be a smart signing, he is just starting to hit his stride.

              @tim Not surprised. There's also still a rape trial in the USA he'll have to face (set for January 2020), a not so minor detail the NZH apparently is not aware of.

                @tim Fucking miserable bastards - standing in the way of Jarryd's dream.

                If they won't help an Australian rugby league player to play for Fiji, just who will they help?

                That boy has more dreams than MLK!

                  Highlanders Facebook page strong hinting Marty Banks is back with the boys. The page is currently featuring at silhouette of Sideshow Bob, with guess who written across it!

                    @tim Is that the Herald making up a story? Why would any New Zealand Super franchise elect to take a 30 year old Australia with no history in the game?

                        Pretty sure the seasons are at different times of the year. I can't imagine the players being anyone else.

                          Interesting on the Allblack site these players not considered for u/20 Development camp in December due to Super Rugby and Sevens commitments Players unavailable for selection due to Super Rugby and Sevens committments: Etene Nanai-Seturo (Counties Manukau), Kaleb Trask (Bay of Plenty), Leicester Faingaanuku ( Ta$man), Billy Proctor (Wellington), Caleb Clarke (Auckland), Scott Gregory (Northland) and Jeriah Mua (Bay of Plenty)
                          The 50 players have been selected from Mitre 10 Cup, the Jock Hobbs Memorial National Under 19 tournament and New Zealand Secondary Schools team.

                          I know Procter,ClarkeGregory have SR contracts I wonder if anyone else in that list does ?

                            @chris thought Gregory had only been offered a WTG/Dev squad one, which you'd think would give them the opportunity to go into the other camps?

                                I would expect Tupaea to be in the Chiefs squad unless there is an age restriction. He coped OK in his first year of M10 rugby. Hopefully Etene Nanai-Seturo replaces his cousin so maybe another contracted player.

                                Surprised not to see Charles Alaimalo in that list of 50 players even if he didn't have the greatest U19 tournament.

                                      @bovidae interesting Tupaea not mentioned in that group who wasn't considered due to SR and Sevens commitments surely he has a contract though could be a misprint

                                        Trask is more likely sevens - still a way to go at NPC level.
