    <p>From what I've seen and read ( not much admittedly ) it sounds like Will Skelton could do with dropping 15-20kg to be a better, more effective player. It obviously runs in the family ( although looks like no one "runs" in that family #subliminaldadjoke ) NTA will explain it better as someone who watches him much more closely but he seems a real "highlights" reel player, Bill Cavubati was pretty handy at that too and he is hardly revered as even half decent at NPC level let alone International.</p>

    <p>Nah, there was another photo of him doing the rounds a year or two back, next to Waratahs play Tala Grey (I think). Grey is 6'4" and Logan towered over him.</p>

    <p>Maybe you should stop watching rugby on your 30 inch T.V and them maybe you may come to realize that Ardie is actually 6 ft 2. I met the guy in person the other day when he was taking photos with fans outside Adidas in Wellington city. I'm 6 ft 2 bordering on 6 ft 3 and he is probably taller than me by a small stretch minus his hairdo.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Even the All Blacks have him at 1.90m so I think I believe them over you.  :yes:</p>

    <p>i think we need to re look at the average height. Because anecdotally, every mother fucker in NZ is 6'2, so how can the average height be 4 inches shorter?</p>

    <p>Even a "small stretch" is significant, so basically he's 6 foot 4 now ? someone contact Guiness Book of Records, at this rate Ardie will be taking Robert Wadlows mantle by this time next year.</p>

    <p>I don't understand how some people are measured when I see them in real life and then what's on their stats. At the Melbourne Test I got a photo with Benn Robinson while we were drinking in the pub and he's reportedly 6'1", which would make me now the tallest I've ever been in my life considering I look taller than him in the photo.</p>
