Does anyone know anything about Central's number 10, Jordan Soli? Earlier in the season he was the top points scorere; no idea whether he still is.
All I could find is that he's come here out of Shirley Boys' HS. Is he in our Academy? Maybe @Number-10 knows?
-
@Stargazer Spoke briefly to his father's partner and him briefly at Waipukurau when the Texans played down there. Jordan is of Samoan and Rarotongan heritage and is of a similar stature to that of Richie Mo'ounga size wise. I thought he kicked well both from the tee and hand and seemed to read the game rather well, especially his positioning when my guys had the ball where he covered expected kicks. To me he looks to have potential but would have to watch him a few more times to evaluate him in other areas than I did during this game eg his front on tackling given he is rather slight!
Pretty sure he also played in that night game against the 'Poo at Union Headquarters in Tamatea and can't recall any major botch ups so he must have gone ok there too.
He must be in the Academy as for him to turn up playing for Waipuk he must have been encouraged by Sam McNichol to go there. Must be injured at the moment as he was not named in the CHB matchday 23 on Saturday (unless of course that he may have been dropped to the seconds!) -
@Higgins Thanks! Yeah, I assume he ended up in the Bay either as a Canterbury reject (like big Brodie and Geoff Cridge) looking for an opportunity, or he was invited to come and the latter most likely means a spot in our Academy. Good to know we get a player back from Canterbury after they 'poached' Gus Brown, although Otago lured far more of our former schoolboys to the South.
Soli slotted a penalty and conversion against Taradale, so he definitely played.

Just pointing out for @stockcar86 's benefit the Altherm Texan's opposition are actually called Napier Old Boys with the Marist bit an add on as an afterthought, but hopefully it won't make the slightest scrap of difference tomorrow!

I can’t see how Braidwood is a NPC level prop. Every Texan back has bigger thighs than him

NOBM 25 - 29 Altherm TechTech really deserved the win. They made a lot less mistakes than NOB. I was particularly impressed with Samuels at fullback, and Udy-Johns with good defensive work including a couple of turnovers. Duff Penitito had good penetration for NOB, but the rest of the backline did not have a great game.
-
@Stockcar86 Having watched him all season (the last couple of games excepted) I agree with your assessment of Liam Udy-Johns and continue to be staggered by his non selection in the Magpies. By the way I had a very slow start to the day today but am improving by the hour! Shudder to think what it will be like next week should the Altherm Texans capture the Maddison Trophy.............

Are you here today @Higgins ?

NTOB 17-8 at half time in prem final

Tech win in injury time to get revenge from last year. Liam Udy-Johns scores the winning try in a great solo effort
