Best Magpies Import Poll (Nominations)

For a midfielder , Robbie Fruen was pretty good for us

Geoff Cridge didn't play 1st XV in Hawke's Bay but played for the HBU18s, so arrived here directly after school. Not an import according to @Nepia 's definition ?

I guess our best hooker import would be Ash Dixon (from Auckland several times as I remember)

Edit I am an idiot, he played for us first

Still an import as he came through the Canterbury System and in true Ken Laban style attended St Bedes College. Some pretty decent players in the 2006 NZ Schools team that he played for

NZS 2006

SQUAD L.G. Braid (Tauranga BC) M.B. Cameron (Hamilton BHS) A.J. Cathcart (Hamilton BHS) H.M. Cochrane (Marlborough BC) R.S. Crotty (Shirley BHS) I.I.A. Dagg (Lindisfarne College) A.L....

@Higgins I'm sure Ash Dixon went to CBHS. I remember him being interviewed on TV as the captain of their 1st XV.

[Higgins]

@Bovidae I stand corrected. Obviously Ken Laban had nothing to do with the post of the 2006 NZ Schools Team listed on the College Sport Media Website. It is enormous relief to learn that the former Captain of Napier Tech Old Boys is not an old boy of a doolie outfit.

@dogmeat That deserves many upvotes!

Craig Philpott count as an import?
