Rudan will be kicking himself not signing howieson.
Nah. If there's one thing that's a given, Rudan won't be losing any sleep over any NZ players who declined the opportunity to trial. As allegedly was case with Howieson and some others.
He's long moved on to Burgess, Mandi etc who were prepared to trial. He's made that beyond crystal clear.
Howieson could tear up the 2019/20 shamateur Handy Prem, and Rudan won't give a toss.
