Ryan Crotty for sure.

Was he injured or could he not get past Nonu, Smith and SBW?

My Rugby short term memory is appalling

Made of glass. I recall him and Smith had a phenomenal 40 min together during one Bled game. Then Crotty got injured

Nathan Hastie

Who?

Victor Meldrew

@delicatessen said in Crystal Glass XV:

Charlie Ngatai is surely our best midfielder

On a serious note, Richard Kahui was a genuine loss to the AB's. Had something special about him.

@canefan said in Crystal Glass XV:

Mike Brewer at 6. Jack Goodhue could take a midfield spot

No chance. He played an entire World Cup and a fair few games in between

He literally got ruled out of the 1991 RWC in a fitness test and missed the 1987 RWC due to injury too. But sure, if you say so.

I said them in another thread, but Nehe Milner-Skudder and Richard Kahui are obvious ones.

Braydon Ennor and to an extent, Jack Goodhue for the more recent examples that haven't been mentioned.

Gunner

Tom Robinson lock or 6.
Anton Leinert Brown

@African-Monkey Kahui seems healthy in comparison to some of these guys. I know he was injured a lot, but not a lot a lot.

I think @sparky has just opened up a NZ rugby almanac collection and is pointing out random names.

I place Kahui and Brewer in a similar group. Both could have had far greater AB careers, one had been touted as a future captain. At least Kahui got a chance to win a RWC

Mark Ranby, wasnt he the original foodbill?

African Monkey

@Bones It felt like a lot a lot haha.
