Gollum iirc

So possible players by position.
Please correct me where I am wrong and someone is not available coz they've moved overseas and I've missed it.
I'll put who I understand is likely to be with the ABs or who is injured in brackets first.
Haven't watched a lot of M10 Cup but have thrown in a few blokes whose name has popped up in the odd game I have noticed. Again tell me if I'm wrong and these guys are no chance ... or are not Maori eligible. Ta
- Hames, Edmonds, D Lienert-Brown, Hohneck
- (Coles, Taylor) A Dixon, H Elliot, Q McDonald(?)
- Eves, May
- Skeen, H Matenga
- see 4
- (Squire, Dixon) Kirikiri
- Christie, K Prior, D Prior, M Crosswell
- (Squire, A Ioane(?)) Douglas, Bedwell-Curtis
- (Smith, Perenara, TKB) Hall, Smylie, Gibson-Park, Weber

- (Dagg, NMS (injured)) Proctor, Lowe (see also 15)
- (Dagg, NMS (injured)) Proctor, Lowe, Curtis
Other injured players
- Blade Thomson - injured
- Tom Franklin - injured
Also, from ACTC's previous years lists I either dont know the current playing status of these guys or don't know the position they play.
- Joe Royal (position? Hooker?)
- Michael Kainga
- Nick Barrett
- Hayden Triggs (goorne?)
Mitch Crosswell(see he plays 7 for Naki ... edited above list)- Joe Wheeler
- Nick Crosswell (goorne?)
Josh Hohneck(prop. Updated aboveHeiden Bedwell-Curtis(8. Updated above)- Codey Rei
- Sean Wainui
- Sean Polwart (7?)
- Kurt Baker
- Joe Webber

Stepping through the week 9 playing squads thread a few other names pop up.
Not all teams named thereupon yet...
Please let me know if these guys are any chance and we'll update the possibility list.
11/14 Caleb Makene
11/14 Beaudein Waaka
11/14 Declan O'Donnell
9 Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi (plenty halfbacks ... )
4 Jackson Hemopo
8 Heiden Bedwell-Curtis
11/14 & 12/13 Matt Faddes (is he Maori?)
12/13 Teihorangi Walden
6 Jordan Manihera -
@booboo
1 Edmonds is injured; Josh Hohneck going to Gloucester
1/3 Mason Kean (NZU20 player, about the same level of experience as Makene)
2 Quentin MacDonald will not be available because he'll be heading to France where he's signed with Oyonnax; a contender might be Tangaere (justifiable if you also include Makene on that list)
8 Mikaele-Tu'u (NZU20 player, about the same level of experience as Makene, although younger)
9 Gibson-Parks is playing in Europe; if Smith doesn't go on the EOYT, Weber might not be available
10/12 Tiaan Falcon (contender for next year's NZU20)
11/13/14 Not sure which Lowe you have on your list (I assume you mean James Lowe), I'd definitely add Jonah Lowe who has been outstandingFrom Act's lists: not sure Nick Barrett has played any Mitre 10 Cup this year; Triggs, Wheeler, Nick Crosswell, Codey Rei, Kurt Baker all gone overseas

@Stargazer said in Nz maori:
@Nepia You may be right about Mikaele-Tu'u, although I vaguely remember reading somewhere he was part Maori, but that may be wrong.
Yeah, not discounting that he is hence the question mark.
@Whites72 According to this article his Dad is Samoan, it doesn't say if his Mum is Maori which could be a possibility I guess.
