          Northland have changed something in the way they contract players, and as such pulling in quite a few local youngsters.

          All 3 of these lads, along with Holwell currently play for Mid Northern

          Jade spent some time in the Crusaders youth system after he left either MAGS or St Kent's, can't recall which he and Reuben went to.

          Jade is a 10, Reuben a midfield/FB and Heremaia is a prop, I don't know anything of his background, but is a big lad.

            We should get a look at new Taniwha recruit Lachie Hooper off the bench for the Brumbies Wednesday night.

              And another youngster from Mid Northern (was at Waipu last year and has been part of the HP program since last year) plays centre/wing.

              Was also in the U20 baabaa squad that played the super teams.

                This time from Moerewa-United Kawakawa, Hoani Reid, was in the HP side last year as well.

                Powerful and deceptively quick midfielder, who could get a decent run atbthe next level as I haven't seen anything of Quentin Nichols this season and we are very light in the midfield.

                  @taniwharugby if he’s anything like his Dad Brandon anything is possible, I know the Blues will be keeping a close eye on his progress as he is genuine line breaker .

                      @kev I'm more thinking injury wise, hasn't played all season that I have seen.

                        I thought Murphy had already been signed...plays 9 for Kamo.

                        Hopefully can pressure Nock to lift his game or take his spot

                          Matt letoga, made Northland while playing for battling Hikurangi in 2023, playing only 1 game off the bench for the Taniwha vs NH that year, moved to Mid Northern this season and looks to have shed a few kgs in the process, plays mainly 8.

                            Zac Shanks is a robust and athletic 7 playing for Mid Northern, has been on the fringe of selection for a couple of seasons.

                            Was very good in yesterday's club final.

                                    @Steven-Harris yep, was helped from the field and then the cart was used to take him from the side of the field to the medical room.

                                          @Duluth yeah signed on early this year.
