Would have to be Southern X or South Island X...

It's like how Auckland Warriors became NZ Warriors to get that market share.

I wonder what we will go to if there is a 2nd team. Do we become the Northern Warriors? Or Stay as NZ Warriors

Could be the beginning of a Japanese model how their rugby teams are names of sponsors and we become the Autex Warriors?

Surely we'd go back to Auckland, right? Feels like having a second regional team kinda puts it in that territory.

I may or may not be from Hawkes Bay, but I see your point.

Meh I “may or may not be from hb “ and rocked Warriors gear pre nz warriors- would be worse supporting a Canterbury team

Fa'alogo? He's a gun, so much flair. I think he's a better version of Taine.
