Crowley said he was disappointed that more didn't make the AB 15. The one name he mentioned was Billy Proctor. Not say Kirifi or Numia. Another coach who seems to really rate Proctor. I've been a lot more impressed with him this NPC. Still young though
He’s a rock on defence. He did a lot of tackling tonight. Higgins and Proctor could be a fantastic pairing going forward. They seem to compliment each other nicely.
On Riley Higgins, he looks so composed at such a young age. I’d already have him above PUJ, he’s got the skills plus the size to get over the advantage line. Seems to be made for the big matches aswell.
Will be interesting to see what the Canes do there with Barrett coming into 12for the ABs. Higgins might have to spend some time on the bench.
As much as I supported PUJ since he left school I feel like he should make a career shift to the Highlanders. Wouldn’t begrudge him for leaving at all.
As much as we are both Wainui boys and like you I’ve also supported him I think he should most definitely go to the Landers he’d be a better option then Gregory I feel.

I’m a EB/Petone boy haha. But yeah, I agree he’s definitely a shit tone better than Gregory.

Tamati in line to take over Leo next year surely
Looks that way doesn't it Ber? Just out of interest who remembers the AB's ad Tamati was on when he just a kid?
Have to say I know I been on his wagon for a while, but I have to repeat, the more I see of Riley Higgins the more I like. I thought Canterbury may of targeted him last night, but not only his attacks etc looks ok, was impressed with his defence last night...... and workrate, always looking to get into a good position it seemed to me.
@Dan54 yes i remember this! he was also in a movie called "swimming lessons" with a cousin of mine
agree re Higgins, that boy will do great things, good on attack and defence great foot work, aint seen much passing but has the off load game going for him, watched him and Lakai play during school and club. been great seeing them progress to this level and to the next
Re Tamati, he maybe down south but his heart is where his home is and i reckon he would come back given an opportunity so lets hope
Paul Tito applied for Canes job and didnt get it so hope he is in the frame when they get rid of "some" of the Canes current coach/management team

@BerhamporeNinja I wasn’t aware that he’d left.
-
Why wasn't Tamaiti Williams starting ? He was in the starting team two days before but on the bench for the kick off.

@cgrant
I guess it was because they needed a THP on the bench ? Wasn't Seb Calder available ?
