    @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 ..

    @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!

    Ma'u was the starting TH prop for the NZ Schools last year in their test against the Australian Schools. I vaguely remember him in that game (the entire front row were huge). No idea how he has gone at senior level.

    Edit: Here is a screenshot. Ma'u is the front rower on the right.

    Manaaki Selby-Rickit has plead guilty. His charge is reckless disregard, which has a sentence of up to 5 years imprisonment.

    @Duluth Losi Filipo as well. Hopefully he gets put away. Even if he gets off, NZR needs make an example of him and terminate his contract.
