@higgins how quickly they’d be all down the road if this was the states, I hate throwing the boot into a franchise I’ve supported since I was 9 but somethings definitely rotten with the organisation. Nothing like rewarding failure with a new contract extension.

@mikey07 I have no such problem in venting my frustration at them! By the way it's Axemen v Wainui Pressies this weekend (weather and ground availability permitting) so might run into you up in the Isherwood Lounge after the game!!!!!

@davies He must have played well in his 4 games for them, as injury cover, since March.

@higgins sorry mate because of my injury and my season being done the wife in all her wisdom thought it would be a good idea to pick up and afternoon shift at work so I have the kids sorry mate but we’ll definitely get that beer one day.

[mikey07]

@canes4life I was impressed he stayed as long as he did.

[Canes4life]

@mikey07 unfortunately didn’t kick on from a promising test start with the A.Bs and some solid form in 2016/17. Wish him all the best.

We’ll alway have the memories

Shame, had always hoped for big things when he burst onto the scene.
But just seemed to slowly get worse, then became a liability with giving away penalties.

Wasps are making a habit of signing ex-All Black duds. Is there a quota at that club or something?

His debut against Argentina was fantastic, some real wrecking ball stuff with great pace too. What happened to that player ?

[mikey07]

@sparky Turning Into Saracens when they went on that Saffa signing spree

[mikey07]

@canes4life I think having to change his game and move away from his natural game didn’t help, having to play structured didn’t suit him

[gt12]

@mn5

He got asked to do some work.

The coaching staff should shoulder the blame for that. Trying to get him to play a tight game when he was dynamic running the outside channels. He was not even considered good enough to make the bench for the Hurricanes in the end which is saying something when the flagbearer for his position was R. Prinsep.
