@arhs Bidwell is one of the worst Journos in NZ. I try and stay well clear of anything he has to say.

I second this. Bidwell is horrendous.

Speaking of NZ journalism....
Tupaea, standing at 1.86 metres and weighing 96 kilograms, will bring a rigorous force to the 12 jumper that has not been seen in an All Blacks side since the days of Ma'a Nonu.Without wanting to turn this into an Ardie - height joke fest. a quick google tells me Havili, Goodhue and ALB are all basically the same size as Tupaea.
I remember getting annoyed in 2013 when they compared Francis Sai'ili to Ma'a Nonu. Some things don't change. Just like "the next Jonah" or "the next Kaino/Collins" etc ....

@kiwimurph Not disagreeing with your point but ALB is actually 103 kg now.

@bovidae Goodhue has been tipping the ton for a while too, Rieko is probably the heaviest?

The Brodie Retallick interview-is that the level of professional speaking quality from NZ Sports reporters these days? Apart from the Elle Macpherson "how's the body?" questions repeated about 4 times they seemed to struggle to get a question out without trailing off like Grandpa Simpson..

He looks good in Crusader red.
A pity for you the Crusaders didn't think that when they had the chance.
