    McLeod to do a Kahui and nail down a wing spot helping us win the next RWC.

    Hold up, you can't come for my boy Kahui like that.

    The man may have been made of glass but he was fucking quality.

    And gorgeous

    Didn't they said that about Caleb Ralph? Didn't he court a royal?

    Want to see more of Lam, Tupaea, and McLeod at 12.

    McLeod is a poor man’s Jordie Barrett. Agree on Lam though.

    Was just about to say, the last thing the ABs need is a Wish version of Jordie Barrett

    Thought the same, McLeod had an excellent NPC though. Personally I would have Higgins anyway.

    Would genuinely be stoked if we had a 12 step out of the shaows @Canes4life , just at this stage, I haven't seen anyone.

    We might have an answer if Lam ever got an opportunity - he looked the business when he played 12 last season

    That guy has carved put the best life

    Limited but committed midfielder who won a world cup as part of the best English team of all time.

    Married a royal and spends his life travelling the world going to the races.

    Sounds amazing.

    @mariner4life A friend has gotten drunk with him at corporate functions a few times, said he's a really good guy. Knows he won the lottery and makes the most out of it.

    I've had a few drinks with him over the years - great, genuine guy.

    Ran into him after the 19 final in Japan and he had already had a couple of drinks and was about to jump into a taxi to head to some after party but a crowd of fans caught sight of him and he hung around for a good 10 minutes to sign autographs and chat with everyone. Just very down to earth and as you've said, aware of how lucky he's been.

    Just out of interest, on the 2nd 5 front, anyone been watching Investic cup or URC/
    I personally think Jordie Barrett is playing bloody well.
    Although I also pretty keen to see how Quinn Tupaea goes this season.

    @Dan54 makes you question the quality of the coaching Jordie is getting in NZ.....

    I think at this stage Tupaea is who he is - a handy squad option but not sure he ever has the game for anything more - would love to he proven wrong - would not be averse to him as an alternative bench option to ALB or Havili who added very little this year.

    I think Jordie needs a Rennie style coach - like when SBW moved to the Chiefs from the Crusaders and improved his game playing a more direct style.

    Either Jordie can use his big frame or he can't, I'm unsure at the moment because I'm not sure that's what he's been instructed to do or if he even wants to play that style. Sometimes he looks like he's doing it, then other time he looks as awkward as he used to look at fullback.
