When the teams he is in do a video for a language week he is in every one.

@nepia No oversight, I think. I just checked last year's graphics, and there they don't have him as Maori either.

[mikey07]

@nepia I think he was still suffering from his injury playing for the ABs, could be wrong.

Who do I believe out of you and @mikedogz ?

I'm hoping @mikedogz is correct for the purposes of the NZ Maori team.

@nepia I was talking about Leger

[Stargazer]

@nepia I'm not claiming to be right. I would just find it odd if he's left out of the "Maori graphic" by accident, twice. You'd think he would have told them it was wrong.

@Stargazer
I know it’s about Thomas but

My old man was a Mike. My sisters husband is a Mike. Three of my cousins partners are Mikes.

[mikey07]

@nepia I’m Mike my father in law is a Mike and my Wife’s cousin is also a Mike very awkward at Xmas 😂

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 Am I blind? I can't find anything in that article about them being Maori.

[mikey07]

@stargazer Unless my mates wrong but He said his dad Maori and mums Samoan

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 Yeah, I don't know; as I said, I would find it really strange if the Canes got it wrong in their graphics both in 2020 and 2021. They're pretty proud of their heritage and of the celebration of the Pasifika culture. You'd expect them to make sure it's all checked and double-checked and that players would tell them if they forgot their iwi.

[Stargazer]

Ardie with his dummies. Nobody would fall for it, but he keeps doing it. I think it's hilarious and he should keep on doing it!

[Dice]

@nepia I think he's Samoan and Dutch.

Another Dutch AB.

@nepia
Could just be a nod to him being a proud kiwi. I know that might not be completely palatable to some but if you've seen enough people with them from around the world with zero cultural connection , I'd say a kiwi with no Maori ancestry with them is way down the scale of inappropriate. Not for me to say I guess.

Good enough for the ABs, but not for Holland
