I bet all midfielders coming up against him learnt how to pass REALLY quickly.

@chimoaus Jonah the Great played 8 for NZ schoolboys in a Test curtain-raiser. He scored a hat-trick at 6 for NZ barbarians in a farewell game for John Kirwan.
Still my greatest lol moment in rugby that, he took the ball off the back of the scrum in his own 22 and ended up scoring under the posts.
Ran over the number 7, ran over the number 8, swatted off the halfback, out paced the first 5 and winger coming across in cover, last line of D was the fullback who set himself in a death or glory tackle.
Heard this enormous "crack" as the tackle was made an immediately thought in my head what a good tackle!
TV then shows fullback lying prone on the field while Johan trots off to score under the posts.
Poor fullback had to be stretchered off the field.
And thus Jonah's love affair with English fullbacks begun.
