An excellent writeup.
I hadn't realised Coxon had moved to Ta$man - the reverse Moli. It makes sense though as he wouldn't get much opportunity at Waikato with 2 young TH props ahead of him.
I'm also happy that Beaver gets to play for Counties again. I only hope it was his choice and that decision wasn't made for him.

All 14 unions recorded surpluses, and 12 had performed better than in 2015, the report said.
-
NMS available for selection for the Turbos.

re: Beaver you would assume not considering he'd made an announcement about an overseas contract followed by an admission that he's unemployed and now playing in nz. Shame if he can't get something sorted overseas, Mitre 10 wages aren't enough to live on these days!

Auckland schools offered Kaino, Afoa and Rokocoko scholarships that year.
Auckland schools or just St Kents? Bit surprised they'd turn down Grammar/MAGS/Kings to go St Kents, who weren't really a powerhouse at the time IIRC..

@KiwiMurph Lost to the mighty St Peters College in 2000 ;). Think they won it the next year and then got relegated in about 2003.
