Interesting articles about Ma'a regarding his recent on field indiscretion
http://www.rugbyweek.com/news/article.asp?id=39619&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook
... and about his future within New Zealand Rugby

I think Three weeks is probably a fair punishment for the tackle, however, he doesn't seem that interested in playing Super Rugby anyway, so it's not much of a punishment is it?
... With regard to his future, it's a requirement that he plays Rugby in New Zealand, and the Super Rugby franchises have an expectation and a right that a player is going to try to do the best for their team ... in short, they should get some bang for their buck.
I get that he wants to play his best Rugby for the All Blacks, but if he can't or won't deliver for any of the Super franchises, I'm not sure what can be done for him ... I'm certainly not in favour of any change in policy by the NZRU to allow hi to play outside of New Zealand, and still play for the All Blacks
... your thoughts?
