@Stargazer I don't think they are looking for a player to develop - they are looking for a starter as Faiane will be out injured for the first few weeks.
Chocobares is only 21 years old and relatively inexperienced; he isn't the finished product (far from that) and needs further development. I see no reason why a team in NZ rugby would want to further develop a foreign eligible player. There are players in NZ to pick from. If they want an experienced player for other youngsters to learn from, he's not the guy.
Whats the rules on this now? The Canes tried to sign an Aussie eligible first 5 many moons back and it was declined bu NZR
I was pissed off then and felt their should be leeway for a SR team to do this within reason. It adds interest to the competition

For those who dont want to watch the whole thing, its mostly about his story, but with respect to the Blues for this year, he mentions that Akira is going well, hints that he has good youngsters at FB (Zarn Sullivan is then mentioned later under ‘players to watch’), and hints a bit about the way that different teams have different cultures (talking about ‘hard’ feedback at the Blues which is a bit harder to get going versus other teams).

Nock's injury from the Mitre 10 Cup semi final must have healed up if he's back running the Bronco.
Anyone spot TJ Faiane?

@KiwiMurph he's usually up the front of those, so possibly still not at 100% as Ruru? seemed well ahead of the next one?

@Daffy-Jaffy Josiah Maraku at around 1.33?
