@DrivingMaul If everything goes to form Waikato won't even release their team list for this match....their communication is atrocious

@Stargazer said in Mitre 10 Cup - news, injuries etc:
Why is Sam McNicol playing for Waikato?????
Edit: and Adam Thomson?
Hopefully that's just to get gametime! They also have Sullivan and Mua.
-
@Stargazer I assume some of the other Chiefs' squad members need a game, and are based in Hamilton. Same for Cobb.
An interesting team. Has Roe returned home from Taranaki? I have never heard of Milnes and Westlake. I would have expected Parker to be the no.8.

15. Tiaan FalconNo comment from Stargazer about this selection yet. Quick someone call an ambulance for him as I suspect he has taken a turn and collapsed into a state of unconsciousness at the very indignation of it all.
Seriously what is going on here? Surely this is an early April Fools joke? Clearly he must have been forced to play in this match by his paymasters as I find it incomprehensible he would voluntarily do so. At the very worst they could play him under an assumed named thus avoiding all the ignomy that playing for this particular team entails. -
@Bovidae Yes, Roe is back in town from the Naki.....likely to be signed by Waikato.... Milne played for Hautapu last season and goes well. Westlake is English and played for Te Awamutu last season, he went really well in a team that often struggled.
-
@OleOleOle I am familiar with Coby Miln, having seen him play at HBHS, and I had noticed he was back in the Waikato after being in BOP. It was the hooker Anton Milnes that I hadn't heard of. I would have expected Sam Cooper to be the hooker, unless he is injured.
Did you go to the game? The team listed in the Chiefs' match programme differs from the WRU media release.
-
@Bovidae Yes, I was talking about Anton Milne, he has been around for a wile now and was in the Waikato U19 squad around 5 years ago. I am not sure what the deal with Cooper is, maybe he is injured....maybe they wanted to have a look at other players...
