@act-crusader Mils played on the wing in the 1 test we lost in 2005 against SA.
Cheers. For some reason I thought that was in 2007.
Just looking back to 2006, Mils played a lot of footy at centre.

I still don't see what all the fuss is about with Kaino though.
At least that gave me a chance to see my posting standards are still the same.
TBF at that stage Kaino had shown very little and I guess the cartel agreed and that is why he missed Lions selection.

You never met the ex mrs gt12.
On the hot crazy timeline she was hard-core danger zone, but it was still worth it.
Tits or GTFO

Found them on MP4, and not sharing!
She's now back in her proper place as my avatar forever.

I'd hate to see my posts about Nonu pre 07.

- ?
- H Reid (stuck behind an AB captain)
- J Drake (just 1 proper season as an AB then retired for work reasons)
- R Willis (huge potential)
- M Brooke (probably 3rd best lock in NZ for 3 or 4 years and never an AB)
- ?
- D Monkly
- P Lam (not 1992 Lam, but 1998 and 99 Lam when he was in Northampton and Hart was playing midgets at number-eight)
- Dean Kenney (post David Kirk, pre G Bachop)
- F Botica (after becoming a pro at Wigan he worked on his weakness, and became dead-eye dick goalkicker, Would have been handy in 93, 94)
- J Goldsmith (AB at 18, leg shattered at 19)
- C Ngatai
- Jeremy Stanley
- N Berryman (he looked amazing at 14 for Northland in 1991 NPC as an 18 year old, but he kept 'growing', took another 6 or 7 years to finally carve out his niche as a fat centre)
- M Ridge (it took 5 years to properly replace Gallagher, amazing)
Can't think of an unlucky 6 or loosehead. Even 14 I'm stretching it with Berryman, maybe Clamp coinciding with Kirwan's career would be a more realistic choice.
Was tough selecting at fullback (Osbourne), centre (Kahui), Hooker (Hewitt).

Ngatai can fuck off from that team. Put Marty Berry there instead. He's from that era
