Love a man creating his own disappointment in himself.
That's an awful lot of "bubbling under" players there (apart from Sam Cane who spent the first half of his career bubbling under).

This is my best effort at a Te Awamutu College first XV; surprisingly strong for a little country town from the Waikato (I imagine that Forest View would be have an interesting team too, but fuck those guys):
- Ray Dalton
- Warren Gatland
- Nathan White
- Steve Gordon
- Chris ‘Ox’ Gibbes
- Jono Gibbes
- Rob Gordon
- Um
- Um
- Nicky Little
- Sam Griffin
- Um
- Mathew Priscott
- Wayne Barr
- Bruce Reihana
-
- Peter Burke
- Nathan Harris
- Wayne Graham
- Jarrad Hoeata
- Royce Willis
- Tanerau Latimer
- Daniel Braid
- Sam Cane
- Owen Stephens
- Kane Williamson
- Paul Simonsson
- Greg Kane
- Peter Burling
- Greg Rowlands
- Adrian Cashmore
3 opensides and no props. Figured Kane was too quiet to play 9 and you know he'd be a master place kicker.

Rob would be the no.8. You could put Carla Hohepa in the backline. No one has said this has to be a male only team.
