    @mariner4life You better hope that we have transcended the NPC and Fozzie picks the Ta$man All Blacks. 🙂 Otherwise:

    Moli, Makalio, Lomax, Strange, Parkinson, Blackadder, Havili, Frizell, Christie, Hunt, Fainga'anuku, Havili, Paea, Reece, Jordan

    Edit: Maybe Nankivell at centre.

    I think Auckland is in the second-longest drought now - five years and counting. That was about the point where I started getting cross.

    Wellington's RS challenge last year was their first since 2014. Both have been against Hawke's. Auckland's last appears to be in 2015. BOP a week earlier that year.

    as far as invitational XVs go, that's pretty disgraceful

    I think the only guys who didn't make their NPC debuts for Ta$man are Moli, Hunt and Reece. But Moli is a product of Marlborough College and Hunt is Nelson College.

    Sevu is a poach! 🙂

    @mikedogz isn't this an incredibly early pre season game? The NPC won't start until August or so, surely??

    They usually have a game or two to look at club players at this time of year. More like a pre-pre season to develop amateur and semi-pro players.

    Always a decent plan to have an ex-Crusaders' coaching team! 🙂

    @chris-b the question is will Daryl continue his recent coaching history (most likely) or will the support coaches (all 4 support coaches) cover his ass? I can only hope we dont go backwards as losing is bad enough, but losing after spending money on failed coaches is a worry.. 🙂

    pffft hahaha

    yeah, right. All those desperately average Crusader All Blacks turned coaches have worked out so well.

    It's only weight of numbers that gives a couple of successes.

    Getting an ex-crusader coach has a worse hit rate than signing ex-Melbourne Storm players

    Daryl Gibson is the BoP head coach? How did I miss this (or as likely forget this)?
