@rocky-rockbottom And he's from the Hibiscus Coast - probably born and educated there when it was still bogan and a League town.

Keep your sticky hands off him, and Karl T too!

Stargazer

Duluth

Great news

An endorsement for Coventry too

Tim

Fucking awesome.

That's such good news. Now develop a top-notch backup tighthead, and really good hooker. Oh, and Scrafton to fully recover please.

Tim

@duluth He actually explicitly credits Tom Coventry for his decision in his interview video:

KiwiMurph

Brilliant!

Virgil

Dare I say it... 2019 could be our year..

gt12

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

Better sign Ross now.

Duluth

So far the confirmed props are:
Tu'inukuafe
Tu'ungafasi
Hodgman

Hopefully we retain Manu and the would round out the LH's

So that leaves these 3 TH's going for 2 spots:
Mafileo
Tamoaieta
Salmon

Kirwan

Shows what having quality coaches can do, attract talent. Great news.

Tim

@duluth Could see Renata in contention too.

Come on MacDonald, where are your poaches? He's slipping behind in the two horse race to be head coach in 2020

mariner4life

Tana will play him at Blindside

KiwiMurph

Good call. I'd be happy with that his set piece work has improved a lot in the last 18 months.

Tim

@duluth Hopefully under Tiatia and Henry he (and other Auckland forwards) will be showing good form in the NPC.

That would be a pretty funny side affect of the bizarre structure the board has put in place.

Kirwan

Good news on a Blues thread, unbelievable.

Bones

That's pretty cool! Happy for Blues fans.

JK

Stoked to hear. Really needed some positivity like that for next year
