@Canes4life Who is lining up to be the next signing - Eric Sione?
Tanner Vili. Inside back cover.
-
@Canes4life Probably signed him because Auckland or nobody else wanted him
-
As always, Wellington stacked in the midfield with three former ABs and one current AB to choose from.

Weird how a couple of club rugbys top tru scorers don’t get a look in yet we keep picking the same old players like Savea, surprised there’s no Sam Clarke either considering he was there abouts last year.
Yeah we need to move on from Savea. Same with the likes of Garden-Bachop, Paulo, Apisai. There’s better players in Club Rugby, Sam Clarke missing out to JGB is a joke.

@Canes4life Agree 100% how about rewarding club rugby form for as long as I remember I’ve never once seen the top try scorer for the season even get a look in with the Lions we might as well give Belgium Tuatagaloa a contract also…actually no don’t he scored 13 tries this year too many to get selected.

As if there wasn't already too many oriental players in the squad, they go and select a couple of Japanese too.
To be fair, I’d select those Japanese players before Leni Apisai.

But a strange thing to do

Kirifi gone for the foreseeable future. Ropeti was also injured against Manawatu so expect to see Sione Halalilo and Akira Ieremia step up.

What a stupid decision on his part. Now he suffers the consequences

Yeah, he isn't one to shy away from the odd brain explosion.

Riley Higgins was named Wellington Lions player of the year, and Callum Harkin was named rookie of the year.
