If this is going to happen, this will be great new for Munster. After losing Trevor Halstead and Shaun Payne our backline is going to be increasingly inexperienced and no one will be able to control the defensive line. Thankfully Tipoki is a great leader, as he has shown playing over the past number of years, so he'll be a fantastic addition. His power and great offloading skills, along with his hard hitting will surely make the Munster team a powerful force.

Maybe we could sign the big man, Jonah Lomu, he'd be a great leader and teacher to the young backs.

Tell the opposition be very prepared to wear head gear..LOL

he's a good player and will certainly fill the void left by halstead very well. its a pity irish rugby cannot breed exciting young backs whenever an experienced individual leaves. its very rare when we do. im irish and living in new zealand and its incredible to see backs at the tender age of 18 getting offered super 14 contracts. every year we see new faces enter the super 14 and their extremely good. i always worry whats going to happen to irish rugby when bod or darcy is gone. even o'gara on that matter!

It would be a shame if he did leave NZ.

is he playing ANZC this season?

He's not shy about flinging his fists, or his elbows, knees etc!!!

i heard he dislocated someones eyesocket but has apparently calmed recently. should be a decent replacement for halstead but munster could do with investing in some of their own talent such as keith earls
