I dont know if you guys have already seen this but I noticed yesterday in a Kiwi rugby site that Dave Te Moana a 122kg prop has left the Force for NZ heres an excerpt for the Marc Hinton article:
"The Turbos, as they're called these days, have signed two Kiwi-born front-rowers from Perth to fill a glaring weakness in their squad for their much-anticipated return to top-flight rugby.
Western Force prop Dave Te Moana, who tips the scales at 122kg, and former Canterbury Colt Mike Rowe, who has been playing club rugby in Perth, were due to arrive in the Manawatu on Tuesday to join the Turbos.
The Air NZ Cup replaces the NPC and kicks off on July 28. Manawatu's first match is at home against Auckland on July 29.
"He's a big man, he's a Kiwi from the East Coast (Opotiki) and he's pretty keen to come back and develop his career," Manawatu coach Dave Rennie told the Dominion-Post newspaper about Te Moana who has played a half-dozen matches for the Force.
"We were chasing one prop and we've ended up with two, which is good because it will give us a bit of depth and a bit of experience."
Does anyone know what the back story is how come we couldn't keep him etc...
