surprised at the lack of "love" for Jamie Joseph who was filthy as fuck.
Rugby is so sanitised now.
Good shout , has Ian Jones been given a spot in the team ?
No way, Kano was my grandmas favourite AB if I remember rightly. I don’t recall him being dirty.

I remember him taking out a players poll in the nineties as being the dirtiest player in test rugby .

Well he must have done what he did very sneakily ! My Grandma said he looked so nice compared to the other forwards

He was a lock, so hes already a front runner.

My brother used to work with an Aussie player quite a while ago. He asked him who was the dirtiest player he ever played against and he said without hesitation “Andy Earl”.
Then one Monday morning after playing the Springboks he arrived at work and said he’d changed his mind and it had become Uli Schmidt. -

I remember playing a Pre Season for my Div 1 Metro Club at Glenmark as we used to go out there every Pre Season .
Was having a leak in the toilets when Alex Wyllie and Andy Earl came flying through the door smashed the shit out of each other, it spilled out into the clubrooms.I asked one of the Glenmark boys what the Fuck is that allbout he just said AHH happens every week old Bull v Young Bull that sums up Glenmark.Grizz was Canterbury coach at the time. -
I remember a recording of All Blacks playing Barbarians in approx 1973. The Barbarians did the old fashioned Willie away move from a line out. The guy who tapped the ball at the back of the line out fell to the ground and Grizz stamped on his face as he ran past.
-
It rings a bell. At a Canterbury training around 1990 the Sydenham forward pack were brought in for some opposed line out training. Earl took a swing at one of the Sydenham guys which was a mistake as he was a skilled boxer who landed a barrage of about 10 punches on him before he was pulled off.

Poor old Flavell. Such an amazing talent but labelled a thug from the moment Steve Skinnon ruthlessly eyed him in the thumb....

Calder had to be fuckin' brave to do that to Fitzy

Bit like Danny Grewcock. Developed a taste for players fingers - and Kev Mealamu's thumb.

Had he played in a previous era , we may be looking back on him as some kind of bad guy hero .

Weren’t all the guys of that era scared of Frank Oliver? I remember reading he smashed Grizz in a game back in the day
Was known as "Tom Tom" - as in the tom-toms were beating as Frank came into town as opponents had been warned of his physical prowess.
