Tali Ioasa, ex-Hastings Boys' High School and recent - or soon to be - school leaver, and son of Tafai Ioasa has signed with Kobe Kobelco Steelers. I wonder whether this is a full contract?
Disappointing to see this talented 18-year-old midfielder moving overseas already, although being signed by Kobe this young, seems huge. I hope he doesn't end up playing for Japan in a few years time.

@Stargazer Didn’t know where to post it and wanted to know if anyone had an idea where he’s going to.
Perfectly fine to post it here. The hall monitor can take a breather for once in his life.

@Dan54 I don't know. They've used an old photo of Souchon. He played as a replacement player for Southland, this NPC season. He wasn't named in any initial NPC squad as far as I know.
Generally speaking, players can indeed combine playing MLR and NPC.

@Stargazer yep mate , we got a few in the Naki doing it, off the top of my head Jesse Parete (he was doing the double up with Japan club , but moved to MLR) Jasn Potroz, Tom Franklin and I think one or two others. Seems a good life for a player in one way, none of them on big money, but can live on what they earn in both comp.

I've just heard that foster hasn't got a job next year? Anyway in the morning interview before the final in his normal not-at-all-funny way he answered a question about his future saying he's going to mow his lawns (ho-ho-ho, you jester. So respectful to a journo who is only allowed one question). Anyway he did mention as it went off to the next journo that 'it is coaching tho'. I wonder where?
