I remember being a junior in high school and you'd hear whispers about grammar and how they got an import from Tonga, seemed like everyone was talking about Konrad and how good he was back then.

@bFORCe2003 3 года назад

I know Dan Carter got all the accolades after High school but Sam Tuitupou was the best player back in that generation. Those idiots at the Blues had him playing crash-ball rugby when he was way more skillful than that.

Sam Tuitupou was the man!

@user-eo7gl4yq2u 2 года назад

It kinda worked for the Blues game pattern in those days. The game revolved around Carlos Spencer and the flyers outside of him-Howlett, Rico Gear, Joe Rok, Rupeni and Mils. They need just need front foot ball and they can finish the rest. Sam was only used to crash the ball because the skill set of other backs wasn’t as good as they are now. Wayne Smith said that when they took over the ABs 2004, most players couldn’t pass left and right.

@user-eo7gl4yq2u 3 года назад

Sevu has gone way faster since he moved to the wing. He’s different runner than he was in the midfield.

@swisscloud4309 3 года назад

Nah i dont its that i just think when in the midfield theres not much space to show your speed your either just a crash baller in a tight window or a distributor can’t really show your pace at 12

Dont agree hes the "only centre" that runs sideways. He can run sideways all he wantz because he makes up for it and then some when he runs it straight. Fair point he does that fairly often. He also runs over people and scores tries other centres cant score fairly often too.

You can always rely on someone bringing up ethnicity.It's all so..... predictable.
