@chchfanatic How could you play classics if you were billeted by Doug Howlett as a 14 year old? Does Canterbury have an extremely young classics age limit? Pretty impressive to play against both Jock and Isaac Ross.
Me, only Daniel Lee and Roger Randle played with and Taine Randell against that I can think of.

Played against Mark Carter and Dallas Seymour (7’s count don’t they). Also played against Tony Iro, who used me as door mat on his way to his 3rd try.
Almost played against a young Jonah Lomu at a Bank tournament. We were all shitting ourselves as he was turning out for ASB, but he wasn’t allowed to play as he had just been selected for the NZ Baabaa’s. we still got smashed though
-
@nepia sorry I can see how that doesn’t seem right. I was 20-21 and invited to play. They used to always have a couple of young players on both teams. Must’ve been either 2000 or 2001 in ashburton. Was a great bus ride back to chch.

@siam Cheers Siam, I was playing XV's against Dallas, I was refering to Dallas being a 7's player. By the way the fat mum as an ugly sister that asking for your number
Dallas was also a proper AB. 1992 he toured South Africa, and maybe a replacement on the Aussie tour before that when we went through about 13 loose forwards.
-
Memory failing me a bit right now.
With: Thrush, Waldrom, Weepu.
Against: Waldrom, Tiatia, Collins, So'oialo, Nonu, Lauaki, Masoe, Jane.There's probably more but everyone was so much better than me it was hard to tell the difference between AB and club player. I'm still scarred by Jane, made me look like an absolute invalid.

@rembrandt and there are a few that lurk.

One of the guys in my rugby team is from West Africa. Does that count?

As I am French, I will be a bit off topic. I have played with the following French international players : Gerard Cholley (he was already old but came for a varsity game to lend us a hand), Jean-François Gourragnes and Dominque Erbani (the latter in an Oldies game).

Bet you're glad he was on your side?

@catogrande
Yes, of course. It was a friendly game so he did not use his punch.
See one of his most famous actions below.
