@Number-10 Thanks for the reminder. I know I had already posted those games months ago, but couldn't find them anymore!
Same location and same opponents as the preseason games last year. I guess they're having a camp in Taupō in-between those games. I liked it more when they used different locations and mixed it up, making it easier for (different) fans to attend those preseason games. I still remember going to a preseason game against Ta$man not too long ago, I think it was in Lower Hutt (at the Hutt Recreation Ground?). If only they livestreamed those preseason games ...

@Stargazer Tokoroa for the Waikato-Hawke's Bay game last year.

@Stargazer That's actually a useful coaching team. Let's hope some useful players are signed. Would have been good to have Craig Innes involved, unless he didn't want to be

Is Innes living in Hawkes Bay or have some association with the coaching staff?

From the article below:
At MAC, Anthony Morley continues his partnership with former All Blacks captain Taine Randell.
MAC will also have former All Black and rugby league professional Craig Innes, who now has a home in Hawke’s Bay, checking-in on the backs.

@Billsy111 I don't think blake is coming to the bay, His Brother Mitch is playing for NOBM though.

So, reading this, do the Magpies get an entirely new mascot, or is somebody else going to wear the Kahu outfit? I liked Kahu. If we get a new one, I hope it's not some plastic shit like Captain Hurricane, the Turbos mascott or that Counties dude.

Sorry, I didn't know where else to post this.

It's looking like it might be the only new signing we get,lol.

@kiwimatrix Actually, this is still more in the "leaving" category.
I forgot the squad size, but if they - like last year - want to announce a name every day until the full squad is officially named (I assume approx. 1 August), then they should start next week at the latest.
-
Someone had a bit of a go at them on Facebook for no announcements and they said dropping soon.
