Any thoughts about Damon Kaui v Caleb Ralph for a wing spot?
I think that you already know the thoughts about Caleb Ralph for a wing spot.

Am disappointed Mark Basham didn't get a mention. If only foe the hair.
And one of the great surnames for a rugby player

Andy Miller
That’s a name I haven’t heard for a while. He was a decent player and left NZ too early IMO. Could’ve pushed for higher honours.

Did he play for the Crusaders? I don't think he was ever threatening higher honours but he was a decent 10.

Miller played ten tests for Japan in the end. Graham Henry apparently was a fan of his All Black chances

Damn you and your facts. I was actually at a BBQ with him in Papamoa a few years back but didn't speak to him as I didn't recognise him and my mate only let me know after we'd left.

I wondered about him as well.... there's the All Black experience of Nathan Harris, vs a charging Aleki Lutui 5m out from the opposition tryline.
