    i saw that posted a few times in different places but because they used his crusaders photo i thought they had resigned him!

    dont most other sports do a basic photoshop job of new signings in THEIR jerseys?

    However, Manu is also understood to be weighing up a rugby union switch to live out his childhood dream, representing the All Blacks.

    I reckon he'll be better than RTS. Just start him on the wing until he familiarises himself with the game.

    I'd like to see how he'd go in rugby. Even in his mediocre year as @mariner4life has pointed out he still averaged pretty decent run metres.

    @Nepia I can't even see him having success on the wing. To be honest I don't know where he would actually suit. He would be better in a collision than RTS, I just dont think he wouldn't fit union.

    He has a high work rate, big body, likes to be involved in everything, probably runs to upright for union, likes to tackle high (and get tackled high) ..which is great for league..

    contract due for negotiation, probably about it
