Lincoln McClutchie - 16th best 1st 5
-
@Billsy111 not really...each coach is only responsible for thier region, so for the Blues say, thier coaches dont see him in the top 3 available to sign, assuming they had any spots anyway.
-
i doubt there was any spots available at the chiefs. all three would have been signed early if not on multi year contracts. if ioane wasnt you would have him over LM even with ioanes faults. even then we didnrt have room for cashmore who id rate over LM as well

The whole point is that according to Super Rugby Coaches they think that Lincoln isn't in the top 15 first fives in New Zealand. And to me that's just fucking bullshit.
out of interest who would you have him over?
not saying your wrong as ive said above chiefs i wouldnt think have room. -
FABLM?
Ok I'll leave.

@Nepia I'm shocked and stunned you didn't notice it about McClutchie, yet did about Morgan.
That's because he's always been fairly chunky/solid
He's no Piri Weepu though...
Hey you leave a good Wainui lad outta this conversation.

@Dan54 you didn't say you got it from an "article" you said it as though you knew and it was the truth. When it wasn't, it was just a guess...by someone else.
Well I guess that's where we all get our info from, including you saying it wrong huh??

Q) Who in their right mind turns down a SR contract with the Crusaders?
A) Lincoln McClutchie.
Not the kind of solid decision making the ABs need at 10
-
@canefan i dont think there has been much suggestion he should be playing for the AB's has there? thought it started just as surprise the leading points scorer in the NPC didn't get a super gig...which i dont think is out of line
As i said, the Highlanders have gone for a 30 year old who will go back to the NH rather than someone who actually played 10 outside fakatava for example
-
Who knows, maybe McClutchie was the coke snorting Shield dismantler so all the clubs saw that as a white flag…. I mean red flag.
-
@Kiwiwomble That's all true. And that last part gets overlooked or forgotten.
-
@Canes4life That or he was (a) the guy who posted or supplied the image that was posted on social media* or (b) the fall guy for the immediately exonerated Fakatava "Hey, we don't know what happened and we're yet to start our investigation, but HE had NOTHING to do with it. We KNOW that." or (c) he's the guy who dropped the shield on the concrete floor and now coaches think he has bad hands
-
Also can't figure out what Brett Cameron offers that he doesn't. Apart from elderliness.

Doesn't that suggest something migggght be wrong with the suggestion that he is being wronged?
He has a relationship with Fakatava but the Landers don't seem to want him. Why?
He has been in the environment of two NZ Super sides, yet neither have signed him. One of those was the Landers while Fakatava was there.
He recently played super rugby for MP and couldn't establish himself as the starting 10.
He appears to have turned down the Crusaders.

Except you didn't say, hey here's a dodgy article that might have some info. You outright stated it as fact... and it wasn't.
