    I am not sold on big Leicester. He hasn't got the pace at wing for the next level.

    That's a right wing

    I'll out myself as someone who had the temerity to suggest Nareki had some potential.

    Although I never suggested, or even thought, he's make this year's All Blacks team.

    But definitely one for the future IMO.

    Nareki is small but when I watch him play at Super level, size is not his problem. I know test rugby is a different kettle of fish. My concerns around Nareki relate to his defence and his option taking. I don't think we should be picking him on the left wing yet.

    Cheslin Kobe, best winger in the world, is smaller

    Reiko Ioane.

    Easily the best wing in NZ.

    In 2017.

    Certainly a better idea than Jordie Barrett on the wing though.

    I think Reiko Ioane should be one of the first names down but on the left wing. Probably one of the best wingers in the world but still developing as a center.

    Agree with Rieko, I think his switch to centre was premature. He still has the pace to dominate on the wing, would love to see him there for at least a couple more years before moving in.

    The kids have moved on from Fortnite now. Institute a device ban on school nights and Rieko will be fine

    @old-samurai-jack agree and a center sub if needed. Best to play him.

    and he is bigger than Shane Williams

    @broughie come on bro! This is what you said...

    @broughie said in Highlanders v Waratahs:

    Commentator on Nareki: will he be an AB? Definitely not.

    And then tried to double down on it by saying that super rugby isn't test rugby.

    Saying one of the form wingers in the comp is definitely not going to ever be an AB is ridiculous.

    @bones don’t forget changing it to just his preference for someone bigger

    @bones I might be wrong in that he won’t be an all black. He could be chosen. Again just expressing my opinion. You can call doubling down if you like. I just think I was being consistent. I don’t see him as an AB, I prefer bigger players especially at international level ( I can see other wingers running over him), need to watch him more but his defense was not good yesterday (but as I said I haven’t watch much rugby as they did not have a provider over here) and we have a glut of FB/wingers that Foster is more likely to pick because of utility value (barret and Jordan and Reiko).

    Not as ridiculous as you crying about something you don't know or have any control over😪😉

    He won't be an All Black because we don't need another halfback sized outside back. Simples😉

    That's your stock standard passive aggressive reply to a hypothetical disagreement isn't it.

    There is nothing difficult to understand. It's obvious I'm talking about Satner or DeGrandhomme for the final!
