    RIP Shayne Philpott, way to young. From memory he was briefly a TSF poster.

    Yeah he was a good sport in the end. Signed up to have a crack at a couple of posters then relaxed

    Think it was around 2012? So no posts will exist

    Sad news. Rest In Peace, the Silver Fern's only All Black (to my knowledge).

    Must have been tough hearing all the naysayers. For years he was a punchline. And that was before social media!!

    @Duluth Sorry - I missed these other posts - probably in the RIP thread.

    Has there ever been another All Black posted here that you know of?

    @Chris-B

    No worries.. just getting it all in one place

    There’s been all sorts of people posting here over the years - players, coaches, family members and of course media. I only know from word of mouth. Don’t want to have a speculation thread about that because obviously they wanted to remain anonymous

    He didn't have kind words to say about us.

    So like most of the posters here then!
    And an All Black. And a pretty tough one given his injuries.

    Maybe wrong or on another site, but I recall an international rugby referee posting here giving an analysis of the reffing in games.

    RIP Shane. Bugger, sad news.

    But I take umbrage - I was and am an All Black in waiting.

    Rip ,

    On the subject of ex players family members etc ,

    It can get messy, I hang out sometimes on my afl club Richmond forum ,

    And there used to be a dad of a player who used to get on there pissed almost every night , abusing anyone that was critical of his son, but the worst, critical of other players etc.

    A dad of an ex storm player now at the roosters was very similar on social media

    I think family members are best advised to stay clear of the internet if they are a bit sensitive to criticism , it can get brutal

    I couldn't spot his log-in anymore either (if I recalled it correctly).

    Some idiot reckons he saw me playing golf in an All Blacks tracksuit.

    I think this was his biggest issue here, 🙂 though there were doubtless some other negative posts in the conversation.

    As Duluth says, once he had his initial crack he stayed around for a little while and shared a few things.

    No, Hooroo repeated the Grizz and his mother rumour and got both barrells from him. It was pretty classy post actually from memory. (Sorry Hooroo!)

    58 is way too young.

    @Kirwan That's probably right.

    The golf story is the part that sticks in my memory, because it was pretty funny - which I'm pretty sure was Hooroo as well? 🙂
