@canes4life Look under "All Blacks"
That’s threw me too
It is getting a bit ridiculous when they just name their abs completely seperate from the main squad
-
@kiwiwomble I guess they do that because they don't expect them to play (which may change, obviously).

Is Squire fit for the NPC?
Unfortunately, no answer in this article either.

Have seen news and squads for 13 teams here. Has Waikato withdrawn? Does anyone know what is going on there? Why no information regarding NPC squad?
Same as usual.
Squad to be announced this week I think. Other provinces haven't released squads yet either.
-
@stargazer wasn't there some speculation he might join Southland? have they named their squad

No CM squad announcement yet either. Expecting it soon.

As far as I'm aware, only 5 squads have been announced: Canterbury, North Harbour, Otago, Taranaki and Ta$man. Or did I miss one?
Southland I think was announced

@bovidae Cheers. I meant that everyone else has released either their squads for the 'trial' matches or the real squad. Waikato does not even manage to tell people who played in the game of three halves. Little wonder the enthusiasm has waned so much for NPC in Hamilton. Used to get rip-roaring crowds over there.

A little bit of a cheat code to get the Wellington Lions squad early. Head along to Dave Lintott photography and he’s loading headshots of the squad.
Surprised to see former Wallabies prop Pekahou Cowan in there. Didn’t realise he was born in Wellington but has obviously returned home.

@canes4life No Alex Fidow? Though I'm pretty sure his mum passed away last week so he may be missing in action for a while (fair enough too).

Pek Cowan is a good signing if he scrums like this:

I don't disagree with you.
As a season ticket-holder I was emailed the FPC team that played Canterbury and sent an email back asking if the Waikato team that would be playing in the game of three halves in Taupo would be released. I was told they didn't have that information. Ironically, there was a Waikato Juniors womens team that played the Auckland Thunder Development women in Taupiri on Sat, and that team was published on their SM.
