NPC - news, injuries etc

Well ferretted out Steve, as Nepia stated we are still in final confirmation mode as the usual sources that know for certain have clammed up after I first hit them up about the lock one. Nonetheless the origianal source said he was absolutely sure about the signing. I had heard bar room whispers about the Aso one as well down in the Waitoa Social Club last Saturday night but put that down to a real pie in the sky situation (not to mention a slight lack of full sobriety - they have some real nice beers there) and have not even started to make further investigations but with your sources as well it looks like there just might be something to it. If true he could hardly go to the 'Poo with their AB midfield back and sometime winger/sometime fullback already on their books.

@Higgins I always like to be reasonably confident about a source before posting..so its good to know there’s some traction to this info..

The world awaits with tredidation as to when the HBRFU will announce their allocation to the combined NOB-M club. Having said that the Texans do have a number of Gisborne BHS old boys playing for us so there might be a very slim remote chance Walker-Leawaere might elect to go there but I won't be holding my breath on that one. At least he would be a better fit than the last import we had that mysteriously changed clubs mid season. I will say no more about that situation.

@Tim said in Mitre 10 Cup - news, injuries etc:
@Dice We'll take Fakatava in exchange.
We have already given you a former HB B halfback, what more do you want? Chris Eaton is doing nothing by the way. Speaking of halfbacks where is Jono Hickey going to be playing, when fit???????????????????

@Higgins Anywhere as long as it's not for Auckland.
@African-Monkey From what I have heard it is not Auckland so you can breath easier. Apparently the contract is rumoured to commence for the 2020 season.

I am hearing that Hawkes Bay may have snared 2 big signings
Isaia Walker-Leawere from Wellington and Vince Aso from Auckland .,might be one for you Stargazer to follow up..!.
Got this from a pretty good source ...that would give the Magpies a decent battery of locks@Steven-Harris So the only good lock that we have in Wellington fucks off. Great!

@Canes4life sorry about that,only the messenger ,can see where your coming from though,only leaves you Blackwell who is hardly a giraffe..Regan Verney who was injured most of 2018 has also signed with Taranaki ..I think I will bugger off now..!

@Canes4life I wouldn't be surprised at all if they sign Veikoso Poloniati. The Canes picked him for the Hurricanes Dev squad and he played Heartland for South Canterbury, so isn't tied to a M10 squad, yet. Unless Canterbury picks him up first, of course (but they probably already have Dunshea, Dalzell and Romano).

I think you will find they have alreay done so. They are rather skilled at signing players that have yet to prove themselves.

Geoff Cridge's profile on the Hurricanes site has his province as Wellington, could mean he has shifted or more likely a typo...

@Bones I'm looking forward to his profile appearing on the Chiefs or Highlanders website.
-
@Stargazer Didn't he spend a couple of years in Auckland, and play NZ U20 under MacDonald and Umaga?

@Stargazer https://www.hurricanes.co.nz/squad/player/jonah-lowe/
Though maybe you should alert Plumtree that he's missing from the squad page - might explain why he never gets picked!
