    As per a number of articles today Mitch mentioned he is training with the squad for the next five days to see how he pans out and may tag along to South Africa for our trip that side

    According to the Internet its James Parsons in case anyone finds it hard to get info on him. Looks like he spent a fair bit of time as the number 1 number 2 for North Harbour.

    Would have hoped for a little more weight than that, hopefully mobile from his Backrow days to compensate.

    Adam Freier is under 100kgs, Sean Hardman is 105kgs, Huia Edmonds is only 103kgs. 106 isn't so bad.
