@mikey07 A couple of very good Caleb Tangitau moments from the club final. His speed setting up a try for centre Murray (also with Auckland today) at 36.45mins and then a try himself at 1:03.10mins. And he is only 18 years old.

@daffy-jaffy That’s really impressive, does he have an NPC contract or just a development one?
-
@cgrant ex Whangarei Boys high , did not play senior rugby this year , played for the Blues 20s , played for GT under 21s ..is around the 6’4 6’5 mark ..Northland were a bit slow on the uptake and he slipped through their fingers.
However the boy in the picture looks more like Jamie Lane despite the team lists saying Behree was in 19, stand to be corrected -
@daffy-jaffy I hope for Auckland’s sake they have many other teams are going to be looking at him and his pace we could do with him down here in Wellington with our coaches preferences on picking “power” wings.
-
@steven-harris I thought that was Lane too. Maybe it is Beehre in 20 next to him? Interesting that Lane is back. He gave the game away for a season or so. If it is him it looks like he may have bulked up a bit.

Jersey 20 definitely isn't Sam Wye - he's a halfback!

@daffy- I think it is Jamie Lane , I spoke to him about 2 months back , Northland were speaking to both Lane & Hallam Eames , but ended up going with Hallam Eames after Auckland decided to go with Lane and Hallam Eames knocked on Northlands door ..true story ..Josh Beehre could be a very good pick up for Auckland , first saw him playing for Whangarei Boys back in 2018, was scouted by Hastings Boys but then COVID 19 turned up ..it’s actually good to see Northland & Auckland working together ,(/assets/uploads/files/1627026582437-7dbe87b3-1fab-40a6-8210-736ad513b6aa.jpeg)

I was impressed by Beehre in the Blues Colts games. Lets hope he is on a pathway towards eventual Blues selection.
-
@daffy-jaffy he’s got a bit of mongrel as well, to be honest if Northland are to lose young players I would rather they were lost to Auckland with the view making the Blues moving forward ..I will be up in Whangarei next Saturday for the preseason game between Auckland v Northland , hoping to do a commentary for the live stream , if not I will put together a post report for the fern .

Outstanding, Love your work.
-
@daffy-jaffy that’s definitely Beehre in the 20 jersey , still a sizeable boy for a 19 going on 20 year old , team list from the union has Sam Wye in 20 who is normally a halfback , maybe Auckland’s cunning plan to throw scouts off 😂..

Young Blindside Kitiona Vai playing AB sevens -
-
@steven-harris I guess Scrafton an Dalzell will be the initial starting locks with Kalapu, Beehre and Lane as bench/rotation options.
-
@daffy-jaffy I suspect both Auckland & Northland will put close to their best 23 on the paddock next Saturday..and i agree with your starting locks , plenty of height in the Auckland stocks .
