Former All Blacks hooker Hikawera ‘Hika’ Elliot has chosen to extend his stay in France, signing a new deal with French club Colomiers in the ProD2.

Elliot spent two years at Nevers before signing for the Haut-Garonnais club last year. The forward very quickly adapted to the environment at his new club, scoring six tries to date, including a hat-trick against Soyaux-Angoulême.

The club wrote on their website: “Currently the best scorer of the professional team, our hooker is therefore carrying his contract until 2023!”

      Episode 27 – RFU Review, Zebo’s Return to Munster, Shaunagh Brown and Dan Norton

      A former Waikato Chiefs, Elliot won 7 caps for the All Blacks, but left New Zealand in 2017 to join Oyonnax, after facing the British and Irish Lions during their tour of New Zealand.

      Elliott was age-grade star in NZ. He represented the U16s in 2000 before captaining the New Zealand Secondary Schools in 2003 and then the New Zealand U19s in 2004. He repped the New Zealand Divisional XV in 2005 before repping the New Zealand U21s in 2006.

      According to his Hurricanes bio, Elliot shed 17kg at the start of 2007 after his weight had ballooned at the end of the previous year’s off-season, on a regime of kickboxing and kung fu, the sport he also has a black belt in and grew up around with his family.

      He was rewarded with New Zealand Maori selection in 2008 and later joined the All Blacks in Scotland on their end of year tour as a replacement for an injured Andrew Hore.

      Elliott played for the Chiefs in 2009 and returned to Hamilton for 2010 for his second full season. He made the All Blacks again for their 2010 end of year tour and was the starting hooker in the 49-3 win against Scotland.

      Internet scams and cybercrime have surged to concerning heights, causing chaos in lives, depleting hard-earned funds, and incapacitating companies. F R A U Dsters work in multiple forms, such as counterfeit investment sites, binary options frauds, forex trading F R A U D, and cryptocurrency scams, all aimed at deceiving unsuspecting victims

      These offenders are very cunning, utilizing psychological tactics and promising unrealistic high returns to attract individuals, only to disappear with their funds. I am recounting my experience as a caution to those who might encounter comparable circumstances. I used to be a target of a meticulously planned binary options scam, in which I lost an astonishing $898,300 in B I T C O I N to a F R A U Dulent broker. Initially, all appeared to be authentic. The platform seemed credible, and the offers of substantial returns were appealing. Nevertheless, after I put my money in, the fraudsters vanished completely, leaving me helpless and heartbroken. The emotional burden was overwhelming; I felt despondent, ensnared in a loop of sadness, and uncertain if I would ever regain my lost money

      Luckily, I ultimately encountered MIGHTY HAC KER RECOVERY, a reliable and exceptionally talented investigative and recovery firm.

      All Blacks selectors meet for 'first crack' at 2025 squad

      Robertson only ever uses Blackadder at 6 for the All Blacks, he’s not going to play 7 or 8. Ardie will be used in the starting lineup, possibly at 7, but most likely 8. Kirifi, Lakai, or Papali’i will most likely play 7 at some point. This means the only place left for Sititi is 6, unless they bring Finau into 6, in which case Savea would be 7 and Sititi 8. Either way, there’s no space for him, as many, many loosies are playing better, and Robertson rates Sititi.

      Freddie Burns' message to prompt transfer scramble?

      Breaking through the tackle? For starters 18 needs a red card for a no arms tackle with contact to the head and secondly he's not breaking through he's getting demolished.

      Chiefs make championship statement in Christchurch heavyweight bout

      “After a monster carry by Sevu Reece” - :) he jinked and danced a bit, then got hammered. Twice in the red zone he interfered with a Chiefs pass - both should have been yellow cards. Generally shown up by Emoni Narawa and Leroy Carter.

      Stormers inflict 16th straight defeat on URC strugglers Dragons

      The ‘croc roll’ penalty against Salman Moerat was a joke. No neck roll, doesn’t fall on a lower limb, doesn’t even complete the clear out. A second stormers player makes the clean. Feels like every time a player takes longer than ‘normal’ to get to their feet a TMO looks for a reason to inject themselves and award a card. The URC has a big problem with the quality of refereeing overall. Can’t offer any solutions, but I’d like to see what rugby is like when only the on-field refs can call for a TMO review.

      Crusaders v Chiefs takes: Sititi back with a bang, Chiefs justify favourites tag

      While there is obvious focus on Sititi, the Chiefs have a squad of excellent loose forwards who have done the job while Wallace has been out. Luke Jacobson is a constant performer and a natural leader. The Chiefs forwards have bested the Crusaders in both games this year so hopefully Razor has noted that, though he will probably still go for his usual suspects, like Blackadder, who has hardly put a foot wrong (well anywhere) this season! :(
