      @Yeetyaah McMillan might be trying to convince him to play for the Chiefs.

          absolutely gutted for Southland ..in my opinion the Highlanders needed to work with the Southland union to keep Selby Rickit at the Highlanders ..would it not be better to have 2 strong unions that make up the Highlanders ..?.a little miffed at the player himself after Southland stood by him during his trial .🤔..So much for the investment in your under 19s that took out the National under 19 tournament BOP..

                is his contract for beyond 2021? If not, you have to assume the logical next step is Chiefs?

                  @Bones Yeah, I think it's a bit premature to suggest the Highlanders have already lost him after signing with BOP, although the chances that he'll jump ship after this SR season is a good possibility, of course.

                  @taniwharugby The duration of his contract hasn't been published (by NZR/Highlanders).

                    @taniwharugby bit of a douche move then eh, to both Southland and the Highlanders. Then again perhaps his "issues" taught him not to take a professional career for granted and to go get what's best for him (and a lot of people don't think highly of him anyway).

                          @Bones am sure he has his reasons, but seems tough to ditch Southland when they stood by him through his issues, that I dont expect he will ever shake off.

                            Shame that Crusaders/ Ta$man drew on the locking stocks. Thought Selby Rickit was from Manawatu anyways?

                                  @Chris I've heard plenty, some from your region too, but those guys were lucky many of them played in an era where their every move wasn't scrutinised and people didnt have phones to capture dumb shit, probably in portrait mode too!

                                      I think some Ferners already predicted this:

                                      Neil Barnes is the new head coach of the Taranaki Bulls (for the next two seasons).

                                      Barnes will return to Taranaki once he has completed his Gallagher Chiefs Super Rugby Aotearoa campaign, however he will work closely with Yarrows Taranaki Bulls players in the coming months.
                                      
                                      Taranaki Rugby will appoint its Yarrows Taranaki Bulls selectors and management team over the coming weeks.

                                        Kingi, captain of the Sacred Heart 1st XV in 2020, is the son of former Counties Manukau representative Dion Kingi and the grandson of Counties and All Blacks legend Bruce Robertson and is tipped for a big future in the game.
                                        
                                        Kingi, who can play lock, blindside and number eight, played junior football at Ardmore Marist and represented the Blues U18 and NZ Barbarians U18 sides in 2020.
                                        
                                        He has linked up with the Chiefs U20 side this year and will return to his Counties Manukau origins to begin his professional career.

                                          Neil Barnes is the new head coach of the Taranaki Bulls (for the next two seasons).

                                          Barnes will return to Taranaki once he has completed his Gallagher Chiefs Super Rugby Aotearoa campaign, however he will work closely with Yarrows Taranaki Bulls players in the coming months.
                                          
                                          Taranaki Rugby will appoint its Yarrows Taranaki Bulls selectors and management team over the coming weeks.
