Otago 2020
-
@Kiwiwomble It's a good debate though, isn't it. As you said, it's either leadership and knowledge at full-back or electrifying speed and agility. Personally, Vili would be better as a super-sub and can bring on impact like how Damian McKenzie did for the AB's against France and England a couple of years ago
-
@NateHill74 yeah, i could see that
i guess thats why i was wondering if collins could move to the midfield, a proper playmaker at 15 and the leadership/experience closer to the action in the midfield
not a fan of captains in the outside backs...just too far from whats going on
-
@Kiwiwomble That's true kind of the same with Ben Smith at the Highlanders, maybe add co-captains like Southland. Maybe have Liam Coltman, or Slade McDowall as a captain, which also has the backs/forwards leaders too.
-
hoping the highlanders has answered some questions for Otago
10. Ioane
11. Nareki
12. sio
13. collins
14.?
15. KoroiThat could actually do some damage this year in the championship, bulk of our backline paying/training together during super rugby
-
apparently we've resigned Josh Hohneck
-
@Kiwiwomble mate, you still got contacts in dunners?
Someone has to have the oil on Walden this season

I hate how resign and resign have opposite meanings in describing pro sports people's futures 😄

I don’t but I think @NateHill74 might
But Walden moved to the naki didn’t he?
-
@Kiwiwomble thought he was always 'naki!

@Kiwiwomble said in Otago Mitre 10 Cup 2020:
@Bones 40+ games for the razorbacks mate
Yeah, confusing Wiki page...
I've only seen him play NPC in the last couple of years so I guess that was my poor assumption.

Wonder if that’s true he’s only got 10 games in the last couple of years for the naki, would have been better staying down south!
-
@Kiwiwomble That's only 2018. The info hasn't been updated since 12 October 2018.
-
@Stargazer makes more sense
-
@Kiwiwomble Confirmed today Otago has brought prop Josh Hohneck, former highlander No8 Nasi Manu and former Auckland club winger Freedom Vahaakolo into its Mitre 10 Cup squad for this year. Vahaakolo has been carving it up in Dunedin club rugby this season apparently
-
Yeah, Tei Walden moved to Taranaki last season as it's his home. And of course as @Kiwidom said on their facebook, Nas, Josh Hohneck, and Freedom have signed for 2020
