The midfield next year of A Savea and A Ioane will go well for quite a few years.

Read my mind bro. imagine this 10/12/13 trio....
 
10. Israel "I've found my running mojo, but still have stupid facial expressions" Dagg
12. Ardie "I might be a ripped midget but I put my head in dark places" Savea
13. Akira "I want to fight you after I've fended you and two of your teammates off" Ioane

Shame Vito is leaving, he could go on the wing!

MajorRage

Still think Vito could have been a great AB centre. Not much competition for those spots over the last 7-8 years. Either in the Blacks or the Canes. Shame he was never given a run.

Hahaha these are funny but I wouldnt say 6'2 Savea is a midget. Dagg reminds me of Dan Vettori - I swear when they pull out the tongue they perform a couple notches higher than when its hidden away.

If he's 6 foot 2 then I'm 6 foot 6......
 
Of all those "coulda been" guys it's hard not to think of Roy Kinikinilau, that guy fell off the face of the earth after taking the Sevens world by storm though.....

Ardie 6'2, that must be measuring the top of his hair...

Sweet, that must make 5 ft 8 and a half then, happy days.
 
Actually, I was looking for pics of Ardie and Julian together because they tend to appear the same height when next to each other - I didn't find one of them together, but did discover Julian's missus. Damn. To paraphrase myself - that's one Muslim even BSG would like. ;)

MN5

Julian Savea would be about 6 2 despite being listed as more. Rugby programmes are like fucken WWE promos nowadays.

Im 6'2. He is 6'2 ive had lunch with the guy. Stop looking at your short flat screens making the players look chubby and dwarf like. J Savea is 6,3 and Ards is 6,19 to be technical.

MN5: "Hey you short Savea brothers, come over and sign my kids rugby balls !"
 
Julian/Ardie: "Ok Charlie Murphy, we don't want any trouble....."
 
How does that work ?

Hey, look, I'm sure we could call ''peering at my man-crush Ardie from two tables away at Mr Bun Courtenay Place while I seductively shove a chocolate lamington into my mouth" as "had lunch with with the guy" just to keep Canes4Life happy.

Canes4life

Haha I actually won a Super Rugby comp a few years ago. Had lunch with James Marshall, Jack Lam and Ardie when he was new to the side. All good chaps. :good1:

Canes4life

Strong side: Harsh on Laumape and Abbott to miss the squad all together. Shows the depth Boyd and Plumtree have grown though when you consider Nonu, Smith, Thrush and Franks left last year and Nehe/Broadhurst are injured.
 
I hope the Chiefs carry on their hoodoo at the ground. They've lost 9 out of the last 10 games at Westpac. Keep it up please.

I think Abbott left the field injured last week, not too long after he'd come off the bench. He only played 13 minutes.
