[QUOTE="Charles, post: 192351"] 14 or 16 ? Could you be more precise please ? What the guy says is actually of little importance because it's clear he wants to play for the AB's so he's gonna speak accordingly. You said he was spotted by Mt Albert . So they went to Samoa, they saw him , and decided to offer him a scolarship, probably because he looked promising as a rugby player ? If that is not scouting I don't know what it is. :wall: I doubt Mt Albert offer scolarship randomly to useless guys. :bleh!: Mt Albert is not the NZRFU, however given the number of good rugby players that came from this school I very much doubt that there is zero connection between them. Anyway, that doesn't change any of the facts: he was living in Samoa, he was then spotted (if you like this one better) as a 14/16 yrs old, offered a scolarship (probably because he was good in English medieval litterature), brought back to NZ and now, how strange, he may very much play for the AB's . :blink: Over to you Spin Boy.
