    As I am French, I will be a bit off topic. I have played with the following French international players : Gerard Cholley (he was already old but came for a varsity game to lend us a hand), Jean-François Gourragnes and Dominque Erbani (the latter in an Oldies game).

    Bet you're glad he was on your side?

    @catogrande
    Yes, of course. It was a friendly game so he did not use his punch.
    See one of his most famous actions below.

    Not me , but years ago a mate got to play the Allblacks, and marked John Kirwan

    Allblacks v Victoria , the score was a hundred and something to very little , and kirwan made him look stupid .

    He was so excited beforehand then it turned into a nightmare .

    @bones said in All Blacks you've played against or with:

    Memory failing me a bit right now.
    With: Thrush, Waldrom, Weepu.
    Against: Waldrom, Tiatia, Collins, So'oialo, Nonu, Lauaki, Masoe, Jane.

    There's probably more but everyone was so much better than me it was hard to tell the difference between AB and club player. I'm still scarred by Jane, made me look like an absolute invalid.

    Did he fend you?

    If that was the game at Olympic Park in 88, I was there. After the game the ABs hung around and met some of the fans. I got autographs from Wheaton and Botica.

    I think it’s the other way around Spice never made it off the bench and Duggan played in the 3/4 playoff in 1999. There’s a team photo of them before the game and all of them look completely and utterly dejected....except for Duggan who has an ear to ear grin on his face as if to say “ I don’t give a fuck if it’s a 3/4 playoff , I’m an all black”. Which is exactly how I would feel in his situation.

    Massive diff between who you played and “a mate” played.
