    <p><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyone know what ever happened to So’otala Fa’aso’o? Not sure I've ever read as much hype around an Auckland schoolboy as him. But he ended up bouncing around Wairarapa Bush and Manawatu in recent seasons.</span></span></p>

    <p><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I know he had a massive discipline incident at high school but can't believe his reputation from that would be holding him back this far down the track.</span></span></p>

        <p>Of that bunch, only TKB is likely to be unavailable for the majority of the competition. A backline comprising Boss, Donald, Halaholo, ALB, Stevenson, Trainor and McKenzie (or slot Apa in there somewhere in the three-quarters) should be able to mix it up nicely.</p>

          <p>He missed out on the North Harbour squad but has ended up at Counties. Injuries have also held him back.</p>

                  I mentioned him because there was a Birtwistle in that team, not just some random MN5 style musings about 2 of his favourite subjects: the 90s, and black/brown guys.

                                <ul><li>out for the season due to injury: Brendon Edmonds, Michael Allardice, Sanaila Waqa and Gareth Evans</li>
                                <li>won't play due to AB duties: Brodie Retallick & Israel Dagg</li>
                                <li>from our 2015 squad, the following players have left: Brendon O'Connor, Tom Stanley, Zac Guildford, Andrew Horrell, Richard Buckman, Tyrone Elkington-MacDonald, Ben Franks</li>
                                </ul><p style="margin:0px;color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Despite the arrival of Brad Weber and Sam McNicol (and May & Filipo), this is a weaker team than last year's. The Magpies lose a gigantic amount of experience without - at least - eight of last year's Super Rugby players (not counting Franks). Whether they will be able to stay in the Premiership after this season, will depend a lot on whether young players like Mikaele-Tu'u, Emerson and Lowe as well as the added club rugby players can step up.</p>
