Player Roger Tuivasa-Sheck

[The Falcon]

Hypothetically, do you think if he played any of the last 7 games we would have scraped into the finals?

He is a massive defensive upgrade over Walsh, and we probably would have been ahead comfortably against the Broncos.

There is no doubting Roger Tuivasa-Sheck defensive capabilities, but you could also ask would he had created the scoring / attacking opportunities that RW offers?

He will be an automatic selection you just wait and watch.

Not automatic, at FB you have Barret and McKenzie, also others like Trask, Wing Reece, Jordan Ione and Bridge, also The Tasman Wing whose name escapes me. His lack of a kicking game will hinder him.i

Still not certainty there, Lienert-Brown, Havili, Goodhue, Ione, Tupaea, Umaga-Jensen. I really hope he makes it, but he is not a walk up certainty.

Haven’t Auckland, Counties and North Harbour had to pull out of the NPC?
Be a tough ask for Roger Tuivasa-Sheck to go straight into super Rugby

When I posted about it I had just read an article about the 3 unions trying to sort out what they could do. The comments had a few people mention Roger Tuivasa-Sheck which got me thinking about the decision he made and how things have worked out.

I thought the update was updated but the comments are different. Looks like they are out. The original article was about the unions financial position with being stuck unable to play.

NPC talking points: Auckland teams finally put out of their misery

After eight weeks in lockdown, wondering whether they would return to the mix, Auckland, North Harbour and Counties Manukau finally have some concrete answers.
