3 opensides and no props. Figured Kane was too quiet to play 9 and you know he'd be a master place kicker.
Missed the point.

I could make up a silly fantasy team myself and chuck Mark Keddell (comm games sprinter) on one wing, Matt Henry on the other and what the hell, why not have half of Parliament who went to SBC make up a super argumentative and niggly tight five

@mofitzy_ That's not a 1st XV, that's just a list of ABs that went to TBC. C'mon, a bit more effort.
That's all you're getting from someone who attended that shit school

KingsBased on the number of ABs, the other schools would include Sacred Heart, Christs, NPBHS and Southland BHS. Feilding has produced a lot of recent/current ABs.
And surprisingly, Timaru BH has 18 ABs.
Wesley College would have as good a backline as any school.

@mikedogz You need a lock. Tukino?
After a quick look at the EONZR other ex Wesley players of note include Sotutu and Mapusua. Wiremu Maunsell and Shannon Paku were at St Stephens. Lindsay Raki (Manurewa) might be one to avoid.
I thought he went to Hato Paora?
Also do we select them on their senior positions of their school positions? Should Jonah be a forward?

Based on what I found Paku went to both schools. He made the NZSS team while at St Stephen's (1998).

I did select Gatland at no.8 for that reason. Read could move to lock and Lomu back to no.8.

I think Jonah actually locked (with Royce Willis) the NZ Schools team one year, with Isitola Maka at 8 maybe?

They were all in the same team in 1992 and 1993. Willis was in the NZSS for 3 years. He was a big unit though.

I think there is still a head shaped dent in the front lawn of a flat on Cameron Rd from when he did a headstand doing yoga (a guy doing yoga in 1995 was freaking weird, but you don't argue with someone that size, even if he is the most placid dude out there.
