Footage emerges of Antoine Dupont training in France

For instance, with their HIA process, I’m pretty sure you’re a ‘fail’ if you admit to any sign of abnormal affect, like say “a hearing problem”, or his mouth gaurd registering etc (it doesn’t automatically mean he could answer/think the questions right), so without any further effects they might have thought the cause of the “fail” unrelated to a concussion?

Certainly Dunedin and Queenstown are lovely places so I’m not sure, as an outsider, why players are reluctant to come to the highlanders. I agree with a sharing system because I see the SR clubs as made up random entities (for the most part), but if you’re looking from within they see themselves as a true “club”, so even a team like the Highlanders might be reluctant to have things introduced that treat them as just a cog on the wheel for selecting All Blacks.

At one level I can understand why JJ feels compelled to put him out there again - the Highlanders lack depth, which leads to desperate, seemingly heartless decisions, like the Holland one above, and also having to pick the young tight-head Ma’u for constant humiliation game after game.

Imagine if the NZR instituted a draft policy, or even a player loan structure, as in professional football, which would alleviate the stock-piling that is endemic to the better-off clubs.

It’d surely be a win-win if players who are ready for more minutes in Super Rugby, like Taylor Cahill at the Crusaders, or Rakete-Stones (with the rise of Mafileo at loosehead) and Sione Lauaki at the Canes, but who are not likely to get much playing time behind lines of established talent, could be loaned out for a season to the Highlanders. SR would benefit by being more competitive - we’ve all been delighted at the Oz resurgence this year - and the clubs that loaned these players out would get them back as seasoned experienced contributors (particularly if they’d had a season or two with JJ).

The sad fact is that the Highlanders have been exposed again after promising beginnings because they simply don’t have the resources. And players’ health is being compromised as a result, as they play out a now meaningless season for ‘pride’..

Isn’t it time for the NZR to step in and correct the loaded dice?
