@Bovidae Wellington did 1 better and took there shield games to Masterton and Levin in 08
Waikato and other teams have done exactly the same. I've been to matches in Ruatoria and Paeroa to watch Waikato play East Coast and Thames Valley, respectively, in RS games.
Otago went to Oamaru earlier this season.

There was a kid that came on as replacement prop for Otago yesterday in Northland game his name is Saula Ma’u , apparently he is 145Kgs 6,3 and only 18 years old..he is literally the biggest human being I have ever seen run out on to a rugby field..from what I believe he schooled in Auckland ..anyone know anything about this kid ..?,you would think he would be a contender for the NZ under 20s next year..

Article says he’s signed with Otago for 3 years.
18-year-old Otago pick no ordinary teenager
Otago is confident it has made the right call in drafting an 18-year-old prop into its Mitre 10 Cup squad. But Saula Mau is not your ordinary...

@Steven-Harris whole crap you expect that sort of weight in club rugby not professional I didn’t watch the game is he mostly muscle or “soft” muscle
-
@mikey07 he’s definitely not fat , because of his height he fills out very impressively ..reminded me of Kobus Wiese South African World Cup lock ,but a bit shorter ..
-
@Steven-Harris just to clarify... is the bloke in the picture @Canes4life posted th ed bloke you're talking about? I thought he just posted that as some fat bloke playing rugby who could be bigger than the biggest human you've ever seen etc

@Stargazer I haven't seen Big Billy for a year or two but that looks suspiciously like him in the red jersey. Last time I saw him he did not look as big as the guy in the photo though!
