Am I wrong, or was he also at some point a first five? He looks pretty slight for a winger, very much Dmac style
or have I got the wrong guy?

Will Jordan will not be going to the Highlanders. 2020 will be the least experienced Highlanders team in well over a decade. There will be an influx of players that no other franchise would have taken on, and guys who are no better the squad players will be thrust into starting roles well before they're ready.

@SouthernMann Inside Knowledge ?? if so it may be a long season for the Highlanders.

@gt12 can’t recall him running around in the 10 jersey..but someone on the forum might know
-
@Steven-Harris he was talked about as an up and coming 10 in Canterbury, but yeah don't remember actually seeing him play there.
-
Still stoked his injury wasn't serious.

He played first five for CBHS and pretty sure he played first five for NZ Secondary Schools. I don't recall him playing there since he left school - not at provincial level anyway.
Edit: google tells me I'm right - about the first bit anyway.

Josh McKay played fullback in the NZ School games against Samoa Schools and Australia Schools, and - indeed - first five-eighth in the NZ Schools game against Australia Barbarians Schools.

Is Samisoni Taukei'aho contracted to the Chiefs for 2020 ,(He should be)He has impressed me every time he has had a run for the Chiefs.He would be a great impact hooker off the bench ,more impact than Polwart in my opinion.If he isn't contracted he wouldn't be the worst pickup for The Blues or Highlanders.

@Chris Tony Hanks the recruitment manager for the Blues will be thinking you make too much sense..so it probably won’t happen..like how you think though..!

@Steven-Harris Maybe I need his Job

@KiwiMurph That's about right, anything more would have been harsh. Nice and fresh to rip into the Crusaders.
Prinsep to the blindside and Evans to no 8.
