Lolo looks more than useful

[Stargazer]

The next Moana Pasifika Magpies signings:

[Kiwiwomble]

@stargazer all jokes aside the canes v MP game should be played in Napier

[Nepia]

Any Super rugby unsigned Magpies player must be furiously searching their family trees for a PI grandparent at the moment.

[Stargazer]

@kiwiwomble The sad thing is, there aren't many Magpies in the Hurricanes squad left, with also Gareth Evans moving back to the Landers.

Confirmed for the Canes are Pouri Rakete-Stones and Devan Flanders. Not sure Isaia Walker-Leawere has re-signed, and he is exactly one of the Magpies who could sign with MP.

[mikey07]

Is Ili still under contract for the Rebels?

[Kiwiwomble]

@stargazer was more thinking the canes historic catchment, there has to be canes and magies fans that want to watch their players and their team clash

[Stargazer]

@nepia IWL, Josh Kaifa and Joe 'Apikotoa are the obvious ones. Fringe Magpie Anzelo Tuitavuki is another.

@kiwiwomble what players the Canes should’ve signed vs players that shouldn’t of been?

Yes, he has re-signed with the Rebels.

[mikey07]

@stargazer I wonder if he’s kicking himself could’ve had a contract with MP

ok, maybe its just me, i'll always support the Landers even when i dont rate the current squads and generally always have a soft spot for Otago players that have gone on elsewhere

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 I don't think so. His brother is a professional basketball player who plays for Melbourne United. So this may be a family-oriented choice.

not to mention a possible HB MP backline of 9-10-12-13-14-15

[mikey07]

@stargazer fair enough then, I didn’t even put 2 and 2 together with his brother.

[Stargazer]

@stockcar86 Yeah, was just going over the names:

A possible MP backline (based on where they've played before):

9 Enari
10 McClutchie
11/13/14 Fomai
12 Leali'ifano
13 Taefu? Fine Inise?
14/11/15 Visinia
15/12 Toala (don't think he's ever played at centre, but maybe he'd be great there)

Not sure what Henry Taefu's preferred position is, 12 or 13.
Fine Inise is a wing/13, but I expect him to be lower in the pecking order than Fomai and Visinia.

[Steven Harris]

Timoci Tavatavanawai i believe has been signed ,
Just wondering what their other outside back options are .

[Yeetyaah]

Central Moana Vikings

Ban him!

[Bovidae]

Obviously the HB fans are getting excited about this team, but for me I am more interested in which current players have moved from a NZ team. So far that's only Visinia and Toala, meaning that the Canes need to find 2 new Wellington players.
