Talking of young halves - Haami Loza is partnering Hastings in the halves in reserve grade this week.
I expected Ryder Williams would get the nod over Loza - but I rate Loza higher.
Both these young halves are 19 year old Kiwis.
Williams got a top 30 spot at the Titans last year as an 18 year old, but I think an injury slowed his progress and POS signed him for us a month or so ago.
Loza has played the last 2 seasons in SG Ball and Flegg and had an offer to join the Warriors this year.
Dobson coached him in Flegg last year.
My opinion is that Loza works a lot harder and is a smarter playmaker, but Williams is bigger, a stronger defender, and looks to be a good game manager who talks a lot
Off the knights forum regarding Haami Loza. Was on their forum in the off season that I saw he was meant to be coming this way but never happened. Looks like it was just an offer looking at this
