 * Keep 31 appearances in the Mitre 10 Cup so passes WP:NRU. Then in terms of GNG in just a simple search I've found this, this and then there's plenty of other coverage in match reports and squad announcements. I imagine there would be more in a more detailed search. I'll update the article with this information as it shows no appearances currently. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 13:39, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Withdraw nom per great work above. Boleyn (talk) 22:13, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
