Otago 2023
-
What about Joe Cooke. He seems quite strong, but apparently has Matt Saunders vibes in terms of pace.
-
loving some of th local chat boys, been too many years just seeing the team run out for the first game and not knowing anything about any new guys
-
Haven't lived in Dunedin for five years now. I just nerd out far too much on Otago Community rugby content, Paul Dwyer on the ODT, club pages and what ever else I can find
-
Paul Dwyer is not a great source. He talks a lot about silly stuff
-
@NateHill74 but he is there talking to people...thats more that can be found generally
-
I don't think Joe Cooke will be in it. Moved to midfield this year as you said. Has as not much pace as some thought so trying to use his frame in the midfield but midfield I'd say is covered. He won't get picked
-
Yeah, he does research sometimes as it's his job for odt, but he does talk a lot of crap sometimes imo
-
@SouthernMann I wouldn't be surprised it it's Sunday after club rugby. Having one last look at players before confirming their squad
-
Completely understand that PD talks shit. But he is the best cheerleader of Dunedin Club Rugby it has. Player interviews, round ups and insights into it. He fills a very useful position in the eco system.
-
That is very true
-
@SouthernMann And despite what some may say, the rumour mill surrounding the Highlanders and Otago is heavily linked to the true and blue Dunedin Rugby Club men who are connected in with board members...
-
@frugby said in Otago 2023:
e Dunedin Rugby Club men who are connected in with board members.
Greg O'Brien, Roger Clark and Mike Kerr are all pretty closely connected to the old boys at Dunedin Rugby Club. Then you have the new generation with Jury and Will Henry.
-
@SouthernMann Not to mention a handful of them are best buddies with Peter Keene... only the major shareholder of the Highlanders!
-
@SouthernMann Monday night
-
My mistake. I knew it was around this time frame. But
-
Finn Hurley scored 29 points today in his side's (Green Island) demolition of Zingari
-
@SouthernMann what position was he playing?
-
Fullback
