    @taniwharugby Hey, it could be Quade Cooper for all I know.

    I suspect they'll announce the coaching staff, and maybe some signings.

    @nogusta That would be ace.

    I'd be happy to see University's Cam Mather as forwards coach though.

    @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.

    Reading between the lines it looks like Ieremia will handle the backs, Henry defence, to-be-named forwards, and Lavea player development and recruitment?

    @wurzel his brother Tasesa Lavea coaches Kings too I think.

    Tai's credentials may not be tested but id rather him get a crack than that nobody Australian they had in the coaching team last year.

    They have. Our small slice on uninhabitable bush doubled in value the other month so would hate to think what Ted's property jumped to with all the services we would have running to it.
