@Bones I hope it's not a sign that someone as old as Galu will get a Lions squad position before someone like Caleb Delany who has been with the Hurricanes this year. The non-selection of Hugo Plummer suprises me aswell, unless he's been injured.

The non selection of Simon Hickey indicates that he must have tumbled remarkedly down the rankings since he was signed for the Lions.

I stand corrected then. I had thought he had been signed for both the Lions and the Hurricanes. I wonder what ever became of the rumoured signing of Jono HIckey for the Lions that was being whisper about under the breath of those "in the know" down here about this time last year?

Anyone know the score between the Ta$man XV and the Wellington XV today?

[Julian] Savea is currently locked in negotiations with Wellington regarding the possibility of playing for the Lions during the Mitre 10 Cup season and said his preference is to remain in New Zealand for the foreseeable future. -

TJ said on commentary during Highlanders vs Blues that Tokolahi and Lamborn are joining the stags this year.
That'll help them compete in the 14 team provincial comp which should replace SR in 2021.
