Great to have Colesy back, but what the hell is a spot coach? Is he a spotter in the gym? Or is he there to spot players that aren't up to it? Classic name for a role.

3 from HOBM? Combine that with something calta spot coach and it's clear the lions have lost the plot.
That’s not the final list, just players I know of that have signed.
Yeah, wtf is that aye. They should just rename it ‘job for the boys’

Loosies

@Canes4life weird they've signed Ardie

@foobaNZ said in Wellington Lions 2024:
@Bones all ABs are affiliated with an NPC team, regardless of whether they play for them or not.
E.g. I think all the Barrett boys are in the Taranaki NPC squad.
Obviously, but I'd be interested in how much they've paid for a guy who's not going to play and is relocating anyway.

Locks:

@Canes4life Filo Paulo still floating around. That’s impressive.

Big lad indeed. There are a few promising locks coming through Wellington atm but they are still young and probably won't feature until next year.

He might even remember when HOBM won the jubilee.
-
@Canes4life I remember when we went to the Southland game at Hutt Rec last year and the guys next to us were like that guy does nothing for the size of him he goes backwards into contact I found it quite interesting.
-
Why the fk have we signed Leni Apisai? What a dud signing that is.
-
@Canes4life Who is lining up to be the next signing - Eric Sione?
