TAKAPUNA: 09 916 6000

He made the North Harbour B side in 2022 – the first time he had been selected for a North Harbour team since playing for Goldfields and Roller Mills teams when he was at Northcross Intermediate.

Last season was a highlight for Winks. He was part of Takapuna’s North Harbour premiership-winning team, which beat North Shore 29-19 in the final. He had previously lost one under-21 final and one premier 2 final against Shore, “so it was great to finally win a final against them”.

“We had a great team of players from the starting 15 right through all the reserves,” he said. “Anyone could have taken to the field.”

Winks, who says he has scored around 10 tries in his premier career, has no plans for retirement. He believes he might be still to reach his peak as a lock.

“I’ll keep going till my body gives out or I get a major injury.” If anything Winks says he is more focused and committed to playing than when he was younger.

Takapuna is missing a swathe of top players away overseas or playing super rugby, and has lost a few matches this season.

But Winks reckons the side is still a threat come finals time.

• Takapuna beat Northcote 22-20 moving to third on the Harbour table. It plays North Shore at home this Saturday.
