[QUOTE="Los Lover, post: 14810"] Yeah, right Now please enlight me with you (so called) NH rugby knowledge and give me your 2 cents on those names too.

[/b][/quote] Yes some good internationals in there...current too for the most part. Unfortunately they are from international teams that are not worldbeaters. France, Argentina etc cannot foot it with the ABs and probably won't for a while, even though rugby is cyclical and NH will be strong again. However right now Ireland is probably your best team and this is going to hurt you bad.....because if the Lions squad come here for of Irish players which it fairly should....they will get creamed. How many times have ireland beat NZ? O'Driscoll is a fantastic footballer though...he was in the Cyurrent XV I printed before this dispute began. Back to the teams argument - I am telling you, not suggesting to you, that the BRUMBIES, BLUES and CRUSADERS are too full of class current internationals to be bothered by any of these guys. The NH is more physical only b/c of the heaviness of mud and rain and the fact that MORE GAMES are played...thus more exhausting. When Califano came down here he simply couldn't play at our level - they tried to get him fit enough but it didn't work. This was a major influencing factor in why we don't bother with their like anymore. He warmed the bench most of the year and sometimes not even that. You might have a good, exciting, competitive competition and I know the pain of wanting to believe your team is better than it is etc (WC '99 and '03) but you need to be realistic and accept that, both in the forwards and the backs, those three teams in particular (and probably the Hurricanes too) are simply too strong to compete with for older fellas and ex- or fringe internationals like many you mention. Bite the bullet. [/QUOTE]
