Outstanding young centre prospect Jimmy McCombie certainly had a 2021 season to remember and no doubt 2022 will see Jimmy McCombie go from strength to strength.

Tamihana Ratima from the Hawara Hawks and Patea Area High School in the central area of the New Zealand North Island has signed a contract with the Titans that will take him through until the end of the 2024 season being the final season of his schooling and U18 eligibility.

Tamihana Ratima will move over to Australia in early 2022 to attend Titans partnered Marsden State High School and is likely to play in the School Boy Walters Cup competition. Tamihana Ratima will also play for the Souths Logan Magpies in the 2022 U16 Cyril Connell Cup competition.

Tamihana Ratima had an outstanding 2021 rugby league campaign for both the Hawara Hawks and in representative rugby league representing the Taranaki Maori U15 Representative side.

Impressively Tamihana Ratima also represented the Mid-Central Vipers U16 side at the 2021 New Zealand U16 National Youth Tournament even though he was still U15 eligible and had a particularly impressive match on Day One of the Tournament against the South Island Scorpions, starting the Vipers 24 – 20 victory on the right wing, scoring an early second half double.

Tamihana Ratima scored his first try in the 29th minute when he received the ball ten metres out on the right touchline. Tamihana Ratima stepped off his right foot to get back inside and then straightened up to crash over between three Scorpions defenders eight metres in from the right corner post.

Tamihana Ratima completed his double just four minutes later in the 33rd minute and his try was for all intents and purposes a carbon copy of his first try, once again receiving the ball on the right touchline ten metres out and then cutting back inside to crash over out wide on the right.

Tamihana Ratima also started the National Youth U16 Tournament Grand Final on the right wing in a 22 – 10 victory against the South Island Scorpions.

In early 2021 Tamihana Ratima was part of the New Zealand Warriors Development Squad attending a number of camps that were run by former New Zealand International Stacey Jones.

2021 was not the first season that Tamihana Ratima had achieved representative as in 2019 and 2020 he represented Taranaki in the U13 and U14 age groups respectively.

As noted above Tamihana Ratima will attend Titans partnered Marsden State High School in 2022, playing in their Walters Cup School Boy side although an opportunity in the Marsden SHS Langer Cup A squad is not out of the question as well. Tamihana Ratima will also play for the Souths Logan Magpies U16 Cyril Connell Cup side early in 2022.

To date in New Zealand for his school, club and representative sides Tamihana Ratima has played both on the wing and second row, primarily on the right and at around 184cm and 95kg Tamihana Ratima has the size, speed, strength and power to play at a high level in either of those positions and for that matter in the centres as well so it will be very interesting to see where Tamihana Ratima lines up for Souths Logan and Marsden State High School.
