North Harbour 2019

[Daffy Jaffy]

Danny Drake was playing with the blues dev. team this year and seemed well liked by Coventry so I thought he may be in the picture for replacing Scrafton next year, but I see he has signed with the Scarlets in Wales. Surely they will need more than 4 props. They won't see much if anything of Tu’inukuafe. Maybe Auckland will loan a couple as they have a surplus it seems.

Is Harrison Levien still playing in NH? He really hasn't kicked on.

[Daffy Jaffy]

I googled the Inisi brothers. They appear to have come from a school league background with Lotu playing for the Junior Warriors and since then both representing Tonga sevens rugby team on the world circuit. Interesting prospects maybe. Has anyone seen them play?

@Bovidae Harrison is with Northland i believe

[Stargazer]

@OleOleOle Correct. He signed with Northland in May.

Hmmm wonder if Adam Thompson made himself available ? Only played 2 and a bit games for taka but looked to still be very useful. His missus seemed to think they’d be here a while

There was a story about him posted in another thread. Apparently Otago was also making an offer after they heard NH was interested

[Stargazer]

@JK I also read in the media that Otago is still trying to sign Adam Thomson.

Hopefully Jacob Pierce has a big season and has added some muscle

The 2nd lock was a big problem for the Blues - GCT, Scrafton & Goodhue were underwhelming. But Pierce didn't get a chance for some reason

@Bovidae he looked good in the club games I saw him play this season, but he was injured and didnt play the semi or final for OBM, have to assume it isnt a major injury as Northland havent picked up another 9.

And now East Coast Bays 1st Five Jack Heighton is out injured.
