2023 NZ Supe Squads named
And Pita Sowakula has ditched NZ rugby for Clermont. Rugby Pass wrote that "they understand off-field misbehaviour contributed to the change in hearts from Ian Foster and co" but it was still a bit shitty to dump him like that.

A bit shitty?
It's got acting like cunts written all over it.
Geez you jokers are getting soft, I knew a coach who dropped a kid from Qld U16 squad for same reason, played silly buggers at training, shit I did same with a 14yo kid I coached at college, though only for one game.
I would be pretty surprised if he was welcome back in AB team (by other players) after playing up at training, even Neil Barnes his Naki coach says he needed big improven=ment on form etc to be picked in ABs again.
I liked GWS (especially being a Naki man), but got impression making the ABs was cumination of dream, and your dream needs to be being a GOOD AB.

Select him for one game, ensuring he can't then be considered for selection for Fiji... and then dump him.
Cunts.
Cunts.
He could've played for Fiji years ago if he'd wanted to, but he instead chose to chase his ABs dream. If the talk of him mucking around at training (to the extent that he seriously pissed off the coaches) is true, then I'm with Dan - he has only himself to blame I'm afraid.
Yep he can still play for Fiji, just not 2023 WC, only got to stand down a couple of years which will make him worth more to NH club he gone to-no International duty to worry about! I bet he not moaning, he gets the extra for being a test player in last 18 months too which means he get work permit piss easy!Gumboot wrote: ↑Sun Dec 18, 2022 3:43 am He could've played for Fiji years ago if he'd wanted to, but he instead chose to chase his ABs dream.

Was looking at a photo of the kiwi rookies at NZR heeadquarters (couldn't get it to stick here) and am looking forward to seeing how a few of them go over next few years. Fabian Holland-Highlanders, Peter Lakai and Riley Higgins -Hurricanes and Macca Spinger and Noah Holtam in Crusaders are a few I reckon might make names for themselves!

He should have known those anonymous questionnaires on who'd they like as coach.. were not anonymous.. and selecting "Razor" over Foster was tantamount to treason...Gumboot wrote: ↑Sun Dec 18, 2022 3:43 am He could've played for Fiji years ago if he'd wanted to, but he instead chose to chase his ABs dream.
