haha
yeah, it was nonu nonu nonu nonu nonu nonu nonu, until he got to lazo i think, but only cos he was a forwardhis thorough grasp of both codes was very impressive
I think still the only person to play for Aus at league and NZ at union (the best two rugby teams in the world)when i saw it was the johns podcast, it was a must watch
the entire johns family (GPs/brother/kids) are all nicely "out-there"
matty's wife does seem to have a bit of a struggle coping with them thoAh yeah, some of Matty Johns extra curricular activities back in the day would have been tough to cope with.
I think he went Gordon Tallis over Nonu because he had to go for a leaguie didn't he given that is what he played first ? ( will have to watch again ) but Nonu beat Umaga and Cullen amongst others ( who Thorn never played alongside I'm fairly sure )
.....and with all due respect to what Lote Tuqiri, SBW, Jason Robinson etc achieved Thorn did more than all of them, more so when you consider he did it in the forwards as opposed to the relatively easier transition of playing in the backs.
yep
nonu knocked out a lot of very very big names
might watch that bit again to remind me who they werehe agonised over cullen, they may have been in the same team in 2003
but he was obviously watching a lot of union in 90's when cullen was in his prime, while he was making the big time in league -
had quick look
started with Wendell knocking out Tuqiri
then Nonu knocked out Wendell
followed by
Renouf
SBW
Mils
Kevvy Walters

Excellent podcast, @Nepia can certainly pick them better than he can pick movies
Conversely, your assessment of podcasts is much better than your assessment of music and memes. :squinting_face_with_tongue:

You leave my music out of this.
True, if he did this with Rugby guys you’d suspect Nonu, DC or McCaw would come out on top.
Interesting that he rated Sailor over Tuqiri, he probably thought in terms of league cos the latter was a far better Union winger.

I see the latest podcast episode is out, interested to hear Jipper explain the coaching dramas as last year the tune was pretty much the ABs weren’t to far off.

I doubt that means they will be more critical, and will continue to tow the NZRPA/NZR party line.

The podcast (only listened to 1st half) was pretty worthless. Everyone's a great player and every team will make the playoffs etc ...

@Tim said in Rugby Podcasts / Panel:
@Unite They completely avoided the ABs. Only talked about the Super Rugby season ...
That’s pretty bad, the biggest rugby story in NZ for a while

@Tim said in Rugby Podcasts / Panel:
@Unite I guess they can't ignore it on the week that the new coach is announced?
I emailed them and queried this omission. Apparently a 15 min update episode will be coming out today.
