@taniwharugby Hey, it could be Quade Cooper for all I know.
I suspect they'll announce the coaching staff, and maybe some signings.

Doesn't Lavea co-coach the Chiefs Dev Squad?
Yes:
Chiefs U20s Management Team:
Coach: Tai Lavea
Coach: Tasesa Lavea
Coach: Paul Tito -
@taniwharugby Will definitely provide some smarts and structure. Probably good for attracting players too.
-
Tai Lavea's coaching credentials have been massively inflated due to his school having a considerably bigger cheque book than the rest of the teams in 1A.
You could argue Auckland's playing resources make it a comparable advantage at NPC level. But I do wonder if Tai is the coach his CV suggests.
-
Along with Henry, Auckland have secured the services of Tai Lavea to assist with player development.
Auckland will add another coach to the lineup soon, to focus focused on forwards and contact.
