Sporties - Nominations - Most Improved Rugby Player of the Year
-
I am going to mention a couple of super subs. Both strong in Super rugby.
Tosi previously only known in BOP circles, strong in Super rugby and now stands as one of our best impact prop subs at NZ level.
Patrick Tuipulotu always strong at Auckland level, but often many have suggested under delivered in the black jersey. Again now one of the best impact locks in the world. -
Tupou Va’ai and Asafo Aumua.
-
More of a Blues nomination here than ABs, but Marcel Renata.
I used to cringe when I saw him coming on, but Cotter turned him into a very reliable option and ended up starting tight head all the way to the title.
For the ABs, Lio Tosi.

Tupou Va’ai
This ^
He has stood up this year to the point he was our best lock. Massive improvement and just when we needed someone to do it.

I never thought Vai'i was as shit as his detractors made out so I'm wanting to add some competition to this one.
Billy Proctor: got a long term contract for the Canes as a teen and finally made an impact this year so much so the Horrorcanes fluffers on here wouldn't shut the fuck up about him all year, even when he decided to attend the birth of his child.

Ratima.
His super form this year was head and shoulders above what he did last season. Then showing signs as an AB.
