      Sorry, I was avoiding any of the under 20s. Thinking more experienced players.

            @bovidae Tima Faingaanuku is the only Mako I thought had a decent shot at a contract and hasn't got one.

            Salmon got cleaned out of the Blues and I'd guess Alex Ainley has entered a well-earned retirement.

                @taniwharugby Finally a prop. I thought the Crusaders and Chiefs had picked them all.

                Wellington must have a loosie or two - Ben-Nicholas?

                      Several players from the Under 20 development programme went on to play in this year’s Under 20 World Championship – Hoskins Sotutu, Caleb Clarke, Harry Plummer, Tanielu Tele’a, Laghlan McWhannell, Bailyn Sullivan, Leicester Faingaanuku, Ngane Punivai and Billy Proctor.
                      

                      .

                      There are seven sets of siblings – the Barretts, Beauden and Jordie (Hurricanes), and Scott (Crusaders); Rieko and Akira Ioane (Blues), Anton (Chiefs) and Daniel (Highlanders) Lienert-Brown; Damian and Marty McKenzie (Chiefs), Sam (Crusaders) and Luke (Highlanders) Whitelock, and twins Jack (Crusaders) and Josh (Blues) Goodhue were listed in the super siblings club in 2018 and this year they are joined by Matt and Billy Proctor (Chiefs).
                      

                      .

                      Players returning from offshore next year are Ma’a Nonu (Blues), James Marshall (Hurricanes), Marty Banks (Highlanders), and Whetu Douglas (Crusaders).
                      

                      .

                      At 36, two-time World Cup winning All Black Nonu, is the oldest of the 190 contracted, while halfback and rookie Highlander Folau Fakatava is the most junior at age 18 (19 in December).
                      
                      Pedigree is strong across the squads:
                      •    Hoskins Sotutu (son of Blues and Auckland speedster Waisake)
                      •    Caleb Clarke (son of former All Black Eroni)
                      •    Akira and Rieko (Manu Samoa Dad Eddie & Black Fern mum Sandra)
                      •    Scott, Beauden and Jordie (sons of iconic Taranaki rugby figure, Smiley) Barrett
                      •    Jackson Garden Bachop (son of All Black Stephen and Black Fern, the late Sue Garden Bachop)
                      •    Ethan Blackadder (son of former Crusaders player, Coach and All Blacks captain Todd Blackadder)
                      •    Bryn Gatland (son of Waikato stalwart, and Wales & British & Irish Lions Coach Warren Gatland)
                      •    Jack Whetton (son of All Black Gary Whetton)
                      •    Thomas and Peter Umaga Jensen (their uncle Tana coaches the Blues)
                      •    Pari Pari Parkinson (his uncle Matua Parkinson was a Maori All Black)
