[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 526811, member: 24910"] Tanaka definitely, I'm not convinced Ensor is quite ready yet. He does some great things with ball in hand, but his decision making and defense need quite a bit of work - I would definitely look to have him in the wider training squad though, as he certainly looks to have all the tools to be a quality Super Rugby player. I thought Liam Coltman played pretty well at TH prop again, though I still think he is better at hooker. Verbakel had a massive game in my opinion - I think he is another who will be close to a Highlanders contract. He has added some real physicality to his game this season, both with ball in hand and on defense. I thought all our loosies played well too, which was one of the major reasons for the big turn-around from the pre-season match between these two teams. Hayden Parker is another who will hopefully be offered a Highlanders contract, as he has been superb all season. In many ways he is a like-for-like replacement for Chris Noakes, but I think he has even more potential than Noakes. [/QUOTE]
