His brother is listed too.
I see that and he too played a couple of times for the Chiefs whilst at Taranaki. Think he also laced up the boots for the Coast for a season about four or five years back as well.

@Higgins See Faifili Levave is back I played against him two weeks ago he still runs pretty hard. He was making a few breaks against us, my claim to fame was I ran him down before the tryline. An absolutely lovely bloke off the field though.

North Otago:
Two missing players for North Otago are Aleki Morris and Vili Koroi

@SouthernMann Yeah, North Otago squad was named on 17 July. There may have been some changes to some other squads as well. For example, Joe Royal was named in the NPEC squad, but has since then been included in the Auckland squad.

I won't start a new thread but Thames Valley and King Country will be playing in the curtain-raiser for the Chiefs-Hurricanes game in May.

Highlighting the financial problems Heartland provinces have.
The South Canterbury Rugby Union has withdrawn from its Ranfurly Shield challenge against Hawke’s Bay in Napier in July citing financial constraints. South Canterbury Rugby chief executive Tim Hyde-Smith said the decision was one which had not been taken lightly, but having exhausted all funding options he confirmed the union was well short of raising enough to cover the cost of taking the team to Napier.
A statement released by the union on Tuesday afternoon said the SCRU had advised Hawke’s Bay Rugby and NZ Rugby of the decision.
