He’s signed with the Blues for next year.

Surely you've got too much quality to be looking back to him? He's hardly set the world alight in Europe over the past few years.

Puja

Noun and SBW at the same club???

I saw a thing from last season where he was still bashing people’s brains in but who knows if he’d still be up to it for a RWC.

He didn’t exactly set Super Rugby alight in his last few years either. Seemed to save it for test matches.

I would be surprised if he made it back to the top table but you have to wonder why he would bother otherwise. I’m sure he could make more doing other things elsewhere.

One has to question if he was actually ever that good in and of himself, or rather a solid player that looked good set amongst jewels.

Puja

Nah, he was proper tonk. He could throw the ball too. And also hit it with his foot.

Yep. He was a bit of a bash artist at first but his passing improved out of sight as he got into it. And if you ever wanted a man to straighten the running line...

Why the Bloos again? Is he eyeing up a coaching role?

Nonu, once he' established himself as the starting 12 for the All Blacks, was one of the best second-fives to ever wear a black jersey. hth.

HTH?

Talk English.

I think the fact that you made lmgtfy use Bing adds a certain personal touch to the insult. Nice.

Regardless, he's not shown that level of quality for any side when not playing amidst the excellence of the All Blacks. Toulon chucked a lot of money expecting to get a best-in-the-world centre and instead got a Maori Jamie Noon.

Puja

Am I really expected to google every bit of internet-speak, gibberish that Cashead comes out with?

Anyway, this was the link I was looking for. https://www.rugbydump.com/news/maa-nonu ... p-14-final The fact it was the T14 final probably says something. He's definitely a big game player.

Ugh. Link is bust. Maybe this?

Nonu's heritage is Samoan.

Plus, who cares how he plays for Toulon.

Yeah, but if he's holding down a starting spot for the big games, it suggests he's doing something right.

It takes about as much time as it does to indignantly whine about it like a little crybaby.

Lol. Hard to even know where to start with that one.

Go cry about it some more.

Owens was appalling on Saturday, watched the game again and he did everything possible to get the AB's a win.
