The thing is Maori come in all shapes, sizes and shades...
I am Maori - both parents are Maori despite me having an Irish last name and a lot of my Maori family are blonde or ginger and fair skinned.
Some of them are mostly mixed and some are mostly Maori.
People like Psychic_Duck don't...
Just so yah know Piri didn't get game time because Steve Hanson asked Pat Lam not to play him because he had a hamstring twinge and they didn't want him to aggravate it.
You sir are correct, Hosea has been used as a battering ram around the rucks and as an extra loose forward in close when the Highlanders are in their own half.
I don't think anyone in their right mind would think Guildford can beat a man one on one like Gear can ... No Way.
Guildford is fast and...
I must be the only person happy with the Halfback selections.
Piri was great in the WC - He played strongly until the semi and final where he struggled because he was asked to play injured as we needed kicking 5/8 with some experience.
He has been out of sorts this year but he's trained hard...
I'll take Chester's word that James Small is a racist clown being as he called Chester a F****** K****** on the pitch, asked him why he is playing 'OUR' game and proceeded to belittle and shun him throughout his career.
Anyway aside from that ive gone back and read your posts over the last few...
Is that the best James Small could do - he didn't beat one tackler.... he ran, passed the ball and then ran as the two tacklers tripped over the the other S.A player ---?
James Small was an average player who is a racist prick - who picked on and taunted black players on and off the pitch.

errr, i never said that - even though i concur - Goldie made an idiot of many a winger in his time ... i doubt Small did .... regardless Dominici had his day too ....
Errrr I only read a few of these - including this first post claiming the author Gregor Paul is a Kiwi .... ?
You do realize Gregor Paul is Scottish - born and bred with the accent to boot - don't you?
smh :rolleyes:
I actually took the time to read this thread and you don't debate as such..... because when your points are taken apart bit by bit
you still try and argue .... its painful to watch.
Every part of your arguments are systematically torn to pieces throughout this thread and you just keep going and...
Succinct and well stated ....
Melhor - your points have been destroyed one after the other and yet you continue.
Its poor form to make a point and then run and hide when challenged to prove your point - you do it time and time again.
Your argument is ridiculous - and with every post you dig a...
Wow where'd you get your info = Cipriani was dropped after a handful of games (then he dissapeared) - if fact he was so bad it he was about the worst player on the worst team.
Thats a bit of a silly comment - Thats more to do with the draw than anything else - its not NZ's fault the Saffers lost in the a quarter final is it? Otherwise they woulda played each other today.
Think about it ......
