holy shit, how old is Census Johnson?

@mariner4life Levave must be getting on a bit too.
Bloody good backline.

Three former Mako$ in that backline and another in the pack!

Interesting to see the dominance of European based players. Sign of the times I guess in regards to earning potential.

Some serious pace for Samoa at 13.

14 Albert Nikoro - West Scarborough - Vaiala/Vaiusu
A winger from west Scarborough? Not good enough to make the full Scarborough team?
I remember in the 95 World Cup, and it was quite amusing to see an unknown Auckland club rugby player like George Harder carving up against test opposition.
Somehow, I don't think this will be quite the same.
What League do they play in? Yorkshire?
That Samoa are calling up an amateur or semi-pro outside back from low level English club rugby is quite sad. -

The Samoan back 3 would look a lot better with Melani Nanai and Matt Duffie in there instead of Tuala and Nikoro.

West Scarborough play int the West Australian Premiership; ideal prep for taking on the All Blacks

Oh, wow.
WA club rugby? Not Yorkshire club rugby.
Well, suppose he's conditioned to hard grounds then rather than a playing on cold Tuesday night v Grimsby etc ......

I found this amusing:
22 D’Angelo Leuila - Papatoetoe - Gaitavai/Fagalii
Could be worse, he could have Eden in there instead.

That would be funny.

Matt Duffie
I thought he was a safe white boy?
Seeing this team actually reminded me that he's eligible for Samoa. I remember seeing his name in a wider team list for the Samoan league team a number of years ago.

That's Rugby League, though - you only have to visit the Otara Markets to be eligible for the Samoan league team.
