    Massive blow for the Boks and for the tournament. He’s the best hooker around for me. Wish him a speedy recovery.

    The Irish hooker is damn good. But yeah among the best.

    Yeah it's between those two. Marx's breakdown work probably gives him the edge.

    Savage player but his influence on games has been dimmed a smidgen since refs started to police hands on the floor beyond the ball before the jackal properly. He was the master of it. Jackling fresh air or torso half the time.

    @kiwi_expat Dalton definitely doesn't look 113kg and 1.93m. If you compare him to someone similar to that like Brad Shields who's actually 2kg lighter at 111kg and 1.93m then those metrics for Dalton are definitely off. It's also suggesting he's the same height as Akira Ioane which going from quite a few pictures online he's doesn't seem to be.

    104kg and 191cm is far more accurate IMO.

    Some of these weights are making me think I have a shot at playing international rugby. Oh hang on…theirs is muscle 🥲🥲

    Which one - Herring, Kelleher or Sheehan?

    @Derm-McCrum Sheehan. Far and away Ireland’s No 1. Other two are pretty good mind, but not in same class.

    @Canes4life Haha, there's no way Dalton is 104kg. Tom Christie is 105kg and he looks miniscule compared to the Blues & Chiefs loosies. Dalton also has the jacked Polynesian genetics, look at his upper body, size of his torso & shoulders, he's definitely carrying a lot up top.

    Poor old Dave Havili - apparently he's four inches taller than Richie Mo'unga but a kg lighter - 84kgs. 🙂

    The weights of Ta$man players is as bent as your books.

    2. Samuela Moli

    3. Tyrel Lomax

    4. Shannon Frizell

    5. Te Ahiwaru Crikadaveta

    6. Ethan Blackadder

    Another knee injury in training. What paddocks are these guys training on? I know the number two pitch at Stade Toulousain is artificial.

    Edit - It appears Manu Samoa's base is Montpellier, not Toulouse.

    Tonga must have an injured prop as I've been told that Siate Tokolahi is to join their squad.
