@shark I just don’t know why you care so much about some pretty off the cuff speculation by highlanders/Otago fans in the highlanders thread, you say your not offended by the idea but you keep coming back saying you want us to justify why we briefly mentioned it…it’s weird dude
Move on, i know you don’t have a final to chat about but surely the crusaders thread isn’t that dead you need to crusade (pun intended) here
I'm not offended. I'd just like you learned fellows to provide some form of evidence that the move might work.
10s to 12
Wilkinson (but he may have been a 12 at school), To'omua, Bernard Foley, Farrell, Ken Wright, Tony Melrose, Quade Cooper!
And Larkham moved from 15 to 10 to 12 *but we won't mention that game.. -
@shark ’s just trolling, ignored the thread for the last week and then the day after the highlander Pip the crusaders to the final he comes back in and stirs up this tiny suggestion like it’s the most ludicrous thing in the history of rugby, demanding evidence etc…it’s a bit sad

Johnny Wilkinson, what a HUGE success at 12! Said no one, until now.

Shifting goalposts again? Nobody said he needed to be a huge success. As I recall he was ok in that position at international level.

Not my goalposts - shark asked for some evidence the move might work. I'd have hoped someone could provide better evidence than guys like Foley and Cooper, or the "ok" JW. Does anyone really have any memory of these guys at 12?

@kiwiwomble said in Highlanders 2021:
@bones how about DC, was pretty good at 12 for the ABs from memory
Maybe marginally better than Foley/Cooper eh! Was first selected for the AB's at 12 I thought...

I think so but always thought it was accepted he was a 10 playing 12 because it was needed etc

ACTUALLY HE SAID
I'd just like you learned fellows to provide some form of evidence that the move might work.AT SR LEVEL.
Never asked for "a HUGE success"...Then you try to pick on the weakest options I offer rather than the strong ones. Tom Taylor did alright at 12. Carter played at 12 but I believe was really a 10 and somewhere I think I read he started at halfback. SBW moved to 12 from 6. Farrell played at 12 at times. Wilkinson played at 12 after retiring from international rugby, I believe, and if he wasn't the player he was, well he wasn't physically the player he was.
I think all could manage to play 12 in their prime for the Highlanders.
And then there is one Stephen Rex Donald..not far off the physical dimensions of the player in question.
So good, they might make a film about him or even name a rugby park after him.. Oh yeah, they have..So could they make an ok 12 for the Highlanders, in their prime? I reckon some of them prove it is possible.

@nostrildamus said in Highlanders 2021:
the move might work
I had no idea, not like it's in the post you quoted
Maybe it's just a different interpretation of the move might work, I maybe considered that meant successful, rather than played a game there in desperation and didn't completely shit the bed...
JW can't have done too much there in competition with Nonu, reckon I'd take that kid Gilbert over him!

No, what's sad is the lack of rugby knowledge you and others are showing. A silly claim about a potential positional change with zero basis and then when called on it, instead of explaining yourself, you try to change the topic by way of the bizarre suggestion that I'm pressing you on it because the Crusaders didn't make the SRTT final. Brilliant. and also truly fucking sad.

We have explained…several times…your inability to either read or understand others points of view (even if you don’t agree)…I’d be be worrying if it were me
The fact you’re not on every single thread having a go at every passing comment for not having a thesis of supporting evidence proves to me you’re are just so salty about missing the final youre here purely to wind people up…sad
