    have any teams got room in the rosters?

    Supposedly not coming until next year.

    By which time he'll be older than people like Jeff Wilson and Joe Rok were when they played their last test.

    Yeah all those wanking on about him walking into the ABs should take note. Benji Marshall was shit at Union when he was old. SBW was too....he was also broken and kept getting selected to make things even worse.

    it's quite alright to just type "i don't know anything about RTS as a player"

    He’s more Jason Robinson than Wendy Sailor I’ll give him that

    @Chris-B you heard it here first Ferners, Jordan is the next Christian Cullen

    Cullen can’t hit a cricket ball, so Jordan is already better at cricket.

    Not a shade on him on a rugby field tho

    Cullen was pretty raw when he started out even though he had great speed and that sneaky strength. But he did run rings around some very amateurish defences back in the day. Became a phenomenal player.

    Still early days for Will.

    Cullen was certainly lucky that seven Scots legends in a row all forgot how to tackle.

    He was pretty ordinary really, give me Ben Blair or Leon MacDonald anyday.

    he'll be a winger. are there even rules that pertain to the winger?

    also, the AB selectors have proven over the past couple of years that they don't give a fuck about the positioning of the guy selected at 14, so he doesn't even have to learn that.

    He's already better under the high ball than any of the other options, is quicker, stronger, and has better feet than them as well.

    Sounds like he'd make a decent 12...

    Can't see RTS as an AB fullback without a proven kicking game and the risk of league instincts in the tackle. Wing or centre maybe. Cullen will remain GOAT

    @Yeetyaah I doubt he would throw away a career just to play with the likes of Shannon Frizell.

    maybe not but a guaranteed dry track and be coached by Tony Brown might be enough...doubt it though

    Ha ha! Good one!

    Tony Brown! Hilarious! I imagine that's what all the top rugby players think. Weathers a bit poke down there but at least there's Tony Brown...

    Good parties at his place though

    Just remembered ... Until the boy racers from Chch gate crash and fuck it up ...

    If Jordie Barrett can play Right Wing for the ABs, my God, RTS can.

    @mikedogz let the speculation and rumours of his Super team and which M10 cup team he will sign for and probably never play for commence!

    If it is the Blues (and he is going to full back) I'm a bit disappointed that Zarn Sullivan might not get a real go, he looks to have the goods. I'm a fan of Rog, so as has been suggested, wing might be a better fit for him. Hard to tell until he actually plays some union.

    RTS would have plenty of work to do to play fullback, as kicking isn't part of a RL fullback's skillset. It's not so much kicking for touch or distance but the high contestable kicks that are so much part of a fullback's role nowadays.

    RTS can sit on the bench for Ta$man and the Highlanders, it's still pathway to test rugby right?

    @Snowy I reckon Will will be away with the ABs.

    Dave might be as well, but regardless, we've always got room for one more!

    There’s always room down there for high profile players as long as there are 6 figure part time jobs for the players at that local Nelson Fish n Chip shop...

    Actually I hope that Will will be.

    Oh and yeah take them all why don't you? (Moneybags, mutter, mutter, GOM).
