He played well at times, but didn't string performances together. Good leader internally, but didn't dominate enough in games

broughie

@nzzp I wanted him to succeed but did he deliver on a consistent basis? I am afraid not. Huge potential but not enough passion.

Teague Mcelroy training with the team.

Tim

Anyone recognize the guy in the Harbour training shirt?

Harbour players standout at the moment. I just realised there's only two. I assume that's a record low?

Not helped by the cancelled NPC season, GCT & Pierce going overseas, Hunt retiring, Tolai going to MP..

I was looking at the provincial representation the other day. NH has more players in the Chiefs than in the Blues.

1996 called? They want their provinces back?

@nzzp I've been to a Chiefs home game at NHS. It was a bloody Friday night match so driving up was a mission.

Tim

@bovidae I remember going to this game that year:

Daffy Jaffy

@duluth Realistically the only 2 of those players could have been in contention for a Blues call up for next season, Tolai and Marshall.

Tim

@daffy-jaffy Would have been interesting to watch Harbour's scrum this season. Lay and Renata aren't the strongest scrummagers.

I'm sure Woodstock would have been much more fun! The Chiefs lost to NSW that night.

I remember going to the Chiefs vs Crusaders game at North Harbour Stadium in 98. The Chiefs won that one.

Leon MacDonald was playing 10 for the Chiefs that night and ends up kicking the winning penalty at the end of the game.
