Parker out, Banks back for Highlanders
Marty Banks has been confirmed as a Highlander for 2017, as injury sidelines Hayden Parker. Banks released a statement today that he has signed...
Banks apparently now joining Treviso after the Super season...personal circumstances apparently.
You'd think these would have been conveyed and discussed with Treviso pretty much from the moment they arose - rather than them seemingly having no idea what was going on. Strange behaviour by Marty and his agent.

True but then if the personal circumstances had messed him up a bit then it's somewhat understandable.

But, that's part of the reason why you haven an agent isn't it? If I was his agent I would have been hunting him down the second I knew he wasn't on the plane he was supposed to be on - and in continuous contact with Treviso.
Treviso has certainly given the impression he's simply been AWOL with no explanations - from Marty or his agent - for the past couple of months.

Does anyone know whether Charlie Ngatai is back training with the Chiefs and/or when he is expected to play again? Or has he already completely recovered from his concussion?
The legend of Charlie Ngatai continues for 2017......

@MN5 you are adding to the 'legend' by constantly banging on about him too, even if form the other side of things.
I think it is a fair question for people to ask about his well being prior to the Super season, his chances of playing in Black are surely slim this year with Crotty, the emergence of ALB and the return of SBW...

ive mentioned him once. Just making the point that I've never seen someone with so little gametime for the ABs get talked about so often. I'm sure it will continue this year.

@MN5 once?
Pretty much any time anyone mentioned him last year you responded that he was the most talked about player and how it was like he was the savior, yes there was some hyperbole around him, but, then you also mentioned him a million times....

@taniwharugby I'll put it out there ... I don't think SBW will make the All Blacks this year. He's not young, is injury prone and isn't even going to play Super Rugby until April.
With Conrad Smith 2 (Crotty), Fekitoa, Lienert Brown, George Moala, Ioane you already have a good mix of stability, power and raw, young talent. And if Charlie is back, thats another ...
I just can't see a spot for SBW.
