@Tim proooobably not. The last time Auckland threw U19 players in was 2017 when Auckland weren't tracking all that well so....might as well give the young fellas some experience - hot off their tournament winning exploits that year. Plummer, Clarke, Faiane, Havili all had a run that year.
Sotutu was named in a game but never got on.
That was a bit of a purple patch for talent coming through. Probably won't see a group like that come through together for a while. -

Squad for Hawkes Bay preseason game Friday.
Weather was cold and wet in the first half. Sun trying to break through now, hopefully sticks around for the second.
Both teams using the ball despite the conditions.
Ruru playing well.

Good try for the Orcs. No.8 makes big metres off the base of the scrum and then spread wide and the left winger with no number on his back scores.
Orcs up 19-14
-
Now another Orc try after a loose offload by HB inside their own half. Same no number winger.
-
Sideline conversion made by Orc 10

@ACT-Crusader Salesi Rayasi

By the way Brodie’s shoulder looks good pushing the pram and holding the kid
-
And another try down that left hand side for the Orcs. The reserve halfback with all the blonde tips in his hair.
Some nice hands from Rayasi.

That'd be Danny Tusitala

He’s playing out on the wing now?
