Ngani Laumape

[Big Marn]

Why's that? Genuine question without influence

Because your not always going to be able to choose where you play if you want a job.. Simple as that.

This thread is quite unique, I've never seen the whole forum so united on a player and an opinion. I still find it really interesting that the Warriors socials highlighted that quote. Sometimes social media guys can operate under their own steam on something that management doesn't sign off on...you'd have to think that's the case here. I can't see a world in which Ngani ends up here and pushing for first grade. Maybe 5 years ago.

yeah that was intriguing thing for me in starting the thread

Laumape wouldn’t fit back into the Hurricanes either with Proctor and Barrett there. Might have a shot at the Highlanders, maybe

Also, I should get around to changing my profile pic

To Jackson Ford. How appropriate.

I’d definitely take a chance on billy proctor.

Laumape not so much.

I'm guessing a big part of the gig is to drive engagement and this story definitely does that, even if it never had a realistic chance of panning out.

That's one tough-looking honky.

It's quick and easy PR for the club. 'Look, our past players want to come 'home' and finish their careers!' That feels good.

The best thing to come out of this thread is Meth switching avatars.

Given the Warriors actively promoted it, I think they may be working towards getting a deal done.

I wouldn't be too excited. I was never a big fan of him to begin with, but 10 years out of the system and on the wrong side of 30. I'd rather have him over Kosi, but I know it's not as easy as that.

On Katoa, does it matter that he's not a NZer? He's another guy in our system who had to move on to reach his potential.

The positive may be that it was the old regime, not the new regime so may not happen in the future.

EDIT: I think I'm an idiot in the wrong thread.

so its not a sick joke then?

Didn't sound like it with Webster today.
