NPC - news, injuries etc

@Stargazer Harbour have lost quite a few players (e.g. Telea, Duffie, Lua Li, Preston, Parsons, McGahan, Drake, Neenee, Groundwater), so I expect them to struggle this year. If their best players stay fit they should be good for a couple of Premiership wins.

That list of available ABs for Mitre 10 Cup comes from this NZR media release:

@Tim said in Mitre 10 Cup - news, injuries etc:
Who's getting relegated this year, Waikato or BOP?
shut your whore mouth
I had a couple of beers with @tim the other day and had an involved discussion about covid. Some of which I even understood.
Rugby is far more technical and personal, even for a biochemist, and he will have analysed this. So take your pick? Waikato or BOP?
Or he could just be taking the piss..Slight aside, weird expression, a whore mouth being open is bad? I certainly wouldn't expect you to tell a whore to close it. Just saying.

why don't you spend some time explaining to me how the biggest richest union in the country has only won the comp once in 17 years?

Are they really the richest? Eden park ain't cheap, crowd numbers weren't good.
Anyway the rest is easy. Financial mismanagement, poor selection and coaching.And as Tim has said, it wasn't that bad either.

so AB's available for NPC...makes the squad even weirder ...what was the point if theyre not being rested or whatever

Gotta say this could be one of the best NPC in my lifetime and if @sparky is correct and we end up with no opposition for the ABs it will be even better.
I think there will be at least a couple of tests against the Aussies in 2020. Looks like the rumoured Pacific Team game has been pulled. God knows about 2020 Rugby Championship.
Agree about NPC. It will be great to see top All Blacks with their provinces for a little bit.

worst thing about ABs being available this weekend, still fucking L2!

Here is the Waikato squad.
I recognise a few names there and stoked Liam Fabes made the squad but how is our front row looking? I can't tell who is who in the forwards apard from loosies and locks
