Except his pass was as forward as an NFL pass…

Sums up TWAS nicely there Chivas 👍 😂 😛

Pretty proud thanks Ken!
That’s an awesome achievement Ken, hopefully the young fulla is able to blossom into a fully fledged Wallaby in the future?!?!
What’s his name? I’m hoping to watch the game on YouTube & will keep an eye on him?

Thanks JC!

Thanks Jd! Yup, hope he goes well for as you say, he hasn’t played there in a while.

Proud whanau moment talking point for me. Having two nephews starting together for the Chiefs. Te Toiroa on one side, Rameka on the other. Think this goes to show, that talent usually skips a generation…with my generation being skipped 😂

Ken, I was working (Siviculture) & playing rugby in Tokoroa while Quade was in his first year of High School at Forest View. If I remember correctly, his prodigious talent was already well known amongst the community. For as a “third former”, he was already the First XV’s first five, leading FV to great results against better known rugby schools like Hamilton Boys etc.
The most indispensable player for Eddie's WC run: No.10s are like rock 'n' roll front men, and that makes Quade the Boss
Well said Ken! 👍

I’m with ya Cassandra, it’s not the eighties any more.

Well written article Mike, hard to argue with any of your points.
One point I will add (not necessarily argue with): yes it’s true the Warriors made sacrifices for the NRL, that doesn’t necessarily mean NZRL made the sacrifices though…
And if anything, despite the NRL’s non-stop raiding of NZR’s School Boy System, it’s still the NZRL that “owes” Australia.
The NRL provides a larger opportunity & greater training & experience to New Zealand born players.
In this regard, NZRL profits immensely. Hence the Kiwi’s better win-loss record against the Kangaroo’s over the last two decades when compared to historical results.
International rugby league is dying a death - and it’s Origin that’s killing it
I think you’ve hit the mail on the head Bobby, duty of care is the No.1 consideration in this instance.

Hey OB, rumour is Josh Lord was been doing some wood chopping/sawing with World Champ Jack Jordan when back in Taumarunui. Has put on a few kgs of lean muscle so hopefully that will help with his injuries.
The Wrap: Is 'enigma' fullback the Wright move for Wallabies, SR not burning but smouldering
Young Payton seems to have a better tactical brain in the games I’ve seen to BF. Albeit from fullback. But, in the First XV “World Schools Fair” (is it?!?!), his when-to-kick Vs when-to-run decisions were near perfect. Very few errors & with good defensive “reads” too.

It is the case. That’s exactly what happened. SARU threatened to leave, did so & are still blaming someone else when it was always their intention to leave. Everything else you’ve said is irrelevant.

@Dr, yes sadly…few of us (Victorians) resisted.
'Should have been done 100 years ago': Australian sports unite as legends speak out in support of Voice to Parliament
Wow, did not know the Professor was back. Huge news for Nz Rugby. And I believe you’re right. If he can replicate his results with the AB’s like he did with the BF’s, it could be another “Golden” period for the AB’s.
'Power and pace, it's frightening': Why Quade reminds Eddie of Dan Carter, and a huge hint over Skelton's RWC role
Actually, to be precise…Te Ika-A-Maui was not the North Islands first name. Aotearoa was. When the first waka arrived, they were only aware of the North Island & it took time before they discovered the South, hence the North being “The Land of the Long White Cloud.” The legend of Maui fishing with his brothers came a long time after that. Always beware of confusing Maori oral tradition versus invented colonial “history”.
'Power and pace, it's frightening': Why Quade reminds Eddie of Dan Carter, and a huge hint over Skelton's RWC role
All due respect West, EJ was comparing Quade’s maturity & alluding to his dedication to rehabilitation & training. Both suffering near career ending injuries, but both (physically at least) returning to fitness at roughly the same age through said, maturity & dedication.
'Power and pace, it's frightening': Why Quade reminds Eddie of Dan Carter, and a huge hint over Skelton's RWC role
Actually Muzz, if we’re getting “technical”…Quade was born in Aotearoa & Dan in Te Wai Pounamu. It’s a common misconception that Aotearoa encompasses both main islands.

What I find interesting is the Union that continually proposed to “leave & go North”, ended up leaving (two of their teams)…& is still blaming someone else.

@PeterK, “I have always been a strong advocate for everyone being treated equally, and everyone have the same rights especially on innate characteristics that can’t be changed that are not a choice.” Everyone?!?!
Should Australian sport be raising its voice?
Good, hope Kafusi cops a long ban. Tired of his thuggish antics. Glad he left the Storm.

It’s a shame as he was a fantastic athlete. It’s bad example to up-&-coming players too, not to mention I’d be pretty pi$$ed at his attitude if I were his teammate.
