NPC - news, injuries etc

Harbour NPC squad:

Unfortunately no GCT, and Ethan Roots is playing in Wales. Dillon Hunt still injured. Surprised that Lemeki Namoa isn't in the squad.

whats with Donald Coleman being named at Hooker? Always seen him play at 7 for North Shore

@jk Maybe it's a mistake? He played 7 in the club final.

Must be. Only ever seen him play at 7

@stargazer Wish they would hurry up and release the squad.

Paul Cully via the Legend of Marty Banks Facebook page has Waisake Naholo and Henry Stowers both signed for Canterbury this NPC…Wellington could definitely do with Stowers.

@mikey07 especially considering he's from Wellington. Do we even have any good loose forwards for the NPC besides Kirifi? Ben-Nicholas and Fifita are heading off shore so I'm not too sure whether they will be apart of the campaign.

Anyone know when Counties will release their squad list? They've already finished their club season.

Most provincial club competitions have finished now. I assume the other NPC squads will be announced this week or next week. With not much going on for the next 2 weeks you would think that the provinces would be trying to maximise media coverage. Apparently not...

@canes4life Ories played Fidow at 8 on the weekend so he might be the go😂 can’t really see anybody in anybody’s line up that has shone.

mikey07

@bovidae Wellington still has 2 weeks left so squad probably won’t get realised until the week of their first game 😂

@mikey07 I wouldn't mind seeing him get a run at 6. He has the speed to be a damaging ball runner but probably not explosive enough to play 8.
