Congratulations to Sherwin Stowers – a great way to cap off a wonderful season that started back in Dubai with a 9-try haul and included a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games Sevens in Delhi at the weekend.
His speed and strength were injected at the perfect moment in the final by master coach, Gordon Teitjens. Stowers scored a try with his first touch and then went around Wallaby wing Lachie Turner to create the winning try.
And now he becomes the latest Teitjens’ prodigy to graduate to full professional status.
So who else might get a contract?
Kurt Baker signed with the Highlanders earlier in the week and so I believe Tim Mikklesen and Ben Souness are the next in line – but they face serious competition.
