Good pickup with the younger Tu'ungafasi. Was pushed too early IMO after he came out of school. Seems to have matured his game nicely at Ta$man.

@themojoman was showing a good development trajectory when he left Northland, was pretty disappointed he left TBH...so with 2 of the 3 brothers playing super, hopefully we hold onto Leka and and he gets a super gig down the track too, I expect (hope) with Ofa signed up here next year good chance Leka stays.

@bovidae Manu Paea locked in , could be number 3?
-
@steven-harris Paea is a useful prospect as he also plays midfield so great cover on a bench.

This team is actually shaping up to be better than i thought. Still not sold on the whole eligibility thing but eh.
I think they stand a good chance of knocking off the Tahs, Rebels and Force.
Why? In reality, they have similar eligibility rules to NZ. They just happen to be based in NZ for financial reasons.

@nepia What is happening regards to rep duties, can the y still choose to represent the Wallabies or All Blacks?
This has been discussed multiple times throughout this thread.
Obviously the all ready played for the PIs can't (and they seem to be a large portion of signings so far). The spaces for non qualified for the PIs are limited. The grey area is for PI qualified who have represented the PIs yet (like Ere Enari, Danny Toala), but representing MP doesn't lock you into a PI.

although someone posted earlier, this is something they are trying to get made into a thing so this ties them to Tonga/Samoa (they didnt mention Cook Islands though I dont think...) not sure how that'd work though.

It would be impossible wouldn't it? It's not a National body.
