Where are they now? (Past Ferners)

Is old mate @raznomore still around?
I love his work.....particularly in the boxing threads.

Lee Grant is a legend. Had some health problems lately I believe, so he's stepped back from the online world. It's a shame - there weren't too many around that had the depth of knowledge he did. Could tell a story about Colin Meads in one sentence, and then some gun 15-year old running around for Riverview in the next.

Yep that’s what I remember. Passion for rugby like no other.

Phooey - can't agree with you @Snowy ... he was even more combatitive in the flesh!
Might have just been you...just saying.
Actually agree with this though:
"Good bloke though, if not a little misunderstood ..." -
I made a note of a 'Carl Hayman - Day in the Life' from back in 2007 (pre WC) when he was the talk of the fern. Apologies I didn't note who wrote it.
Carl Hayman - Day in the Life
Woke up. Shaved.Killed beast, cut beast into pieces. Ate some beast. Shaved. Tore down some really big trees and threw trucks around. Ate more beast. Shaved. Moved house...little bit to the left. Ate beast. Shaved. Slept the sleep of the pure."

@jegga that'll learn ya for visiting those other forums...the time I spend on here is bad enough, which was the only interactions I had with Lee, and found him a great contributor, that Lindommer guy was a fluffybunny though.
Agreed , he showed up after the tahds win and actually called me out in his gloating post . I tried to respond but one of the mods blocked me from the thread .
The only other forum I visit these days is pr , my god there’s some messed up people there. Ghost of Nepia and Uncle FB in particular stand out , glad they don’t post here.
GON, in particular - how dare he sully the good name of an All Black great with his pro-Otago rants.

Pretty typical of Otago to poach from the bay though .

Obviously on the debit side of the ledger there’s @NTA but one takes the rough with the smooth.
You love it rough.

@RLx31 yep, that was me.Dutchkiora is now @dK
Fullermorg did come back in another guise, purely with his trolling pants on and got promptly banned. I played rugby with him in the UK< great guy, but yeah, huge shark phobia/hatred.
@Crucial do you still hear from Mainlander?
@MN5 that would be Paarlbok...hugely passionate, got more chances than most after numerous bans, he eventually gave up despite the ban not being permanent.
Redbeard is another.
I also played a season with Fullermog, really good dude. Must have been 2005 or 2006 I guess?
When was that TSF Touch team put together? I still have the t-shirt somewhere
Great thread this, perfect for a Friday afternoon in the office

You guys are tough. Some bloke playing the drums gets murdered 50km from where I live and I am the prime suspect on here...Yes, I can get a little grumpy, but I actually like the drums, however I love chianti , (fava beans, meh). Make of that what you will.
Having been lightly cooked myself, the smell is digusting. Not my thing. To keep it going though, skin clothing is fine...and Phooey is absent isn't he...such a nice hat.

Agreed, that bastard stole half my name.
On lee grant, he was around when I first joined (or when I lurked) and I always found him to be good value.

I-... I mean "he" first used that on Planet Rugby in 1999. So good luck proving that one in a court of law (unless your real name is actually Nepia...)

@voodoo by played rugby with him, I assume you, like I mean, when he wasnt injured, which was about 80% of the time....

So you, um he, pre-stole a good Hawkes Bay name just like Otago was stealing HB players. What's wrong with Wilson, crap Southland originally, or um, my memory is failing me - some Otago born and bred AB.

Yep - and given my lack of talent, I also use the term "played rugby" very loosely
