[QUOTE="Zapphod, post: 510226, member: 57286"] Kiwi's dislike him for many reasons probably the number one is that he is over-hyped and untrustworthy. As far as playing for the Crusaders or the Chiefs yeah I agree he is in his element but at test level he is not, this constant rain of dribble about his passing skills and ability to draw defenders is astounding and rather like patting your accountant on the back for being able to add and subtract, it is his job to draw defenders and pass the ball and believe it or not just about every number 12 in the country can do it. Didn't he also give away our first points? As I have explained to friends I would most likely have him in a New Zealand A squad to play Japan, Canada or the USA but I would not consider him against teams such as Australia or South Africa.
