    @SouthernMann someone we name in the squad....and then almost never play...to the extend we even bring in injury cover ahead of them...awesome

    Nailed it. He is a 15, 10 and winger though. Haha

    @Kiwiwomble I wouldn't flinch at Retallick being described as raw-boned.

    It was used to describe pretty much every white farmer loosie type back in the day wasn't it?

    @Kiwiwomble I know you live in Oz, were you also raised in Oz? How did you make it this far without hearing it?

    @MN5

    Mortlock,A good comparison

    In that they are both white?

    Mortlock was an incredibly skillful player on both sides of the ball, and a fantastic kicker. Macleod has yet to show a quarter of those skills.

    I’ll love it if he turns out to be a player like that, but unless I’ve missed him burning guys for pace then kicking the winning conversion, I think we need a better comparison.

    More a case of them both being Raw boned. Shit, are you even following this thread or what ?

    Have you ever seen what's under a rawboned Highlander's kilt?

    We are not talking about his ability in comparison to Mortlock his raw boned physique is what I am talking about.
    I don’t get what you are talking about different conversation you just bought up.

    I have us with Michaels, Haig, Withy, Harmon, Renton (not sure) and Broughton. So probably only one or two spots available.

    Hayden Michaels is a Southland player, who was in NZ U20s last year. Tough as nails openside flanker. Looked quite good for NZ U20 last year. A reasonably well sized openside. @NateHill74 might have a bit more information on him.
