    I miss watching Cully play in his prime. Just the shot of adrenaline you got every time he touched the ball, I'd never pick any fullback in the world over him.

    He could step off either foot without slowing down. A real physical freak

    Could chuck Bill Cavubati on the bench for some impact late in the game. Holds the record for the heaviest international player weighing in at 165kgs for Fiji.

    Yes, he was fun to watch. He and Bull Allen on the bench against a tiring team could be destructive !

    Man that gave me wood. My favourite ever player by a country mile... until Beauden showed up. How awesome would those two have been together?

    I also don't think TJ is a lock at 9 - I'd take Piri, although Piri is a great sub as he reads the game so well so might be a plan to start him on the bench.

    Which version though? The fit one, the fat one or the really fat one? I agree that I'd take the fit one over TJ any day. Pity we didn't see that much of him. Gluttonous KFC eating tool.

    He looked pretty hefty in heartland rugby last year

    @magpie_in_aus I'll add Karl Lowe.

    Didn't even look at 7. Assumed he was already there. Ta

    Ok, so after making a Chiefs HB origin XV thought I'd give the home franchise team a try and then see who would win.

    1. Ben Franks
    2. Norm Hewitt
    3. Ben May
    4. Mark Abbott
    5. Bryn Evans
    6. Gareth Evans
    7. Karl Lowe
    8. Dallas Seymour
    9. Alby Mathewson
    10. Ihaia West
    11. Zac Guildford
    12. Richard Buckman
    13. Jonah Lowe
    14. Cory Jane
    15. Jarrod Cunningham

    Some reserves: Hika, Brendon Edmonds, Potu Leavasa, Hugh Renton, Michael Johnston, Danny Lee, Daniel Kirkpatrick, Robbie Fruean, Sam McNicol.

    Unsurprisingly many of those players are single digit Canes players.

    @nepia Lowe could be the next Ngatai minus the injuries.

    Thought it would be good to have a set of brothers in there. 🙂
