I think it's pretty clear PGS was a Plumtree call.

Without Plumtree around PGS was no chance.

PGS was a strange selection in the first place - his Super form really went downhill in the back end of the comp.

Any proof?

Rumour is PGS got on the piss after his second game then missed the bus the next morning.

@Yeetyaah I hadn't heard anything that specific but had heard he had been a bit naughty...

On a Frizell judiciary chart that should only be a 5 minute standown from a warm up.

@jauzy019
Happy for Gus that hes picked up an overseas contract , but i have got to say Gus in terms of having to stand for 3 years to play for Fiji has got nobody else to blame but himself , his agent and whomever else was advising him ..i called this when he was selected that he was just hail mary selection when Foster was panicking ..
The real shame is depite upping his value as a one time All Black , he could have easily picked up a lucrative contract by playing for his country of birth and i reckon he could have been a standout for Fiji at next years RWC ..
I really do hope players of Pacific Island orgin have a good think about where they sit in any potential pecking order before jumping in feet first to play for the All Blacks and then being stuck in this very situation .
Temo Mayanavanua is classic example of a player who picked a very good contract in France after just playing 2 seasons of NPC with the Northland Taniwha .

How could you. Missing the bus is a fucking travesty.

BOP hooker Nic Souchon has signed with Old Glory DC in the MLR.

Not exactly a headline name and even the stats don't help much. A total of thirteen appearances in provincial fixtures over five seasons and eleven of those were off the bench. Can the BoP Mafia help us out?
