[QUOTE="ranger, post: 398010, member: 40555"] Poor channel to choose there actually.. Hes based in Chicago, but hes actually a kiwi. He went to Kelston Boys where he was coached and monitored by Graham Henry. In his last year he was the top try scorer for Kelston 1st XV in a team that contained Mils Muliaina, Mose Tuiali'i, Sam Tuitupou and the Lauaki brothers. (His form in the 12 jersey kept Sam Tuitupou from being trialed at 12 until he had left school.) After Kelston he stopped playing for a bit, but then came back and signed on for Taranaki in the ITM cup. He started most of the games, but was cut from his contract after they found out he had been playing league in the off season. His agent then shopped his name around a bit and he got picked up by the Manly Sea Eagles in the NRL. He wasn't a huge fan of league however and left his contract early to go to the US, where his brother had already been picked up for the U.S sevens (By virtue of them being born in American Samoa). Long story short- looks can be decieving. I think USA could run Ireland pretty close. [/QUOTE]
