WATCH: Dane Coles to switch to number eight this weekend
By RugbyPass
An All Black getting a run on a muddy council ground is a rare sight these days, but Dane Coles will return to the colours of his home club on Saturday afternoon.
The 49-test hooker will be packing down at number eight for Wellington club Poneke FC, where he made a name for himself in the latter half of the last decade.
It will be his first time in the historic red and black jersey of Poneke for quite a few seasons. His recent injury layoff means he hasn't seen much action at all in 2017, and Coles will use this much-needed game time to warm up for the upcoming Bledisloe Cup test on August 19th against the Wallabies in Sydney.

Crusaders went all in to buy Hotham and Kemara staight from Hamilton Boys. Then they picked up Reihana and Hohepa; all have been dropped for superstar Havili, who is a very good fullback, that’s it. Ennor and Goodhue were schoolboy stars too but went backwards at the Crusaders. Maybe they have finally decided to give another poach Levi Aumua the ball?
