    Kelleher is one step removed from Zac Guildford.

    @Frank More violent offences, so arguably worse. This is his third trial, IIRC. A real piece of shit.

    definitely dumb as a sack of hammers.

    I knew his brother who, from what he used to say about Byron, would think you are being very generous.

    Fucken hell, he looks even more terrifying than in his top level playing days.

    Still amazed he never got capped, he was a monster

    And in news that shocks noone ...

    Stuff

    Sad to hear.

    Kelleher was a bloody exciting player and always came across ok to me in interviews albeit definitely dumb as a sack of hammers.

    Sounds like he’s a fucken arsehole on the piss as many people are sadly. Not good for someone of any age but even worse as he’s approaching his late 40s.

    Kelleher is a prick, was a couple of years ahead of me at school, at uni we had a private function at the Cook and he tried to get in, actually said "do you know who i am"...unfortunately for him a couple of us knew him before he was an AB and so told him Yes...and thats why we dont want you coming in

    Fairly sure it’s been scientifically proven that ANYONE who busts out that line in any shape or form is an absolute cock.

    @Kiwiwomble oddly, I have heard a story (@WillieTheWaiter ) that I believe involved him, Luke McAlister and another...2001 I think it was, the 3 of them were sitting in a pub in London, and someone had asked them (not recognising who they were) if they had heard the ABs were going to be heading in there that day...and one of them replied saying 'nah bro, why would they come in here?'

    He went back as a sixth-year (or dare I say seventh-year?), didn't he? I heard he was playing for the OBs 1st XV, when he was about 19. You and I will probably know similar people (I was at LPHS 1992-1996).

    That used to happen more often than you think, particularly if you were hoping to make NZ rep teams. Kelleher didn't, but someone did when I was at school. A European tour with the NZ Schools team was the incentive.

    Afoa was the fourth prop in the 2011 RWC squad. He played against Japan and Argentina.
