What are they up to now? - Former All Blacks

@ACT-Crusader said in What are they up to now? - Former All Blacks:

@MN5 when he started his second career as a rugby player circa 2004, his throwing was actually top drawer.

Yeah great......Lee Stensness probably actually made a tackle too.....I try not to let facts get in the way of a good misconception.

@MN5 Lee Stensness still has his lucky 20 dollars:

@jegga By LinkedIn standards, it's pretty modest....

Good mate of mine knows Oliver well - close friend. Rates him highly as an all round good bloke

I have fond memories as a kid travelling to Auckland to watch a test. We pulled into a motel and my Dad told me to get out of the car. Got out of the car and Bryan Williams was standing there, shook his hand and I was so stoked. Pretty sure he owned or ran the motel from memory.

I have as he has a unique name for NZ and o have a bunch of old rugby books. But I couldn’t have picked him from the pic.

There’s a couple with quite odd names , Beethoven Algar , Tori ( sanitorium ) Reid .

I always make a point of looking at the first names of players in the 1st XV games I go to. Gen Z kids have all sorts of strange names. Look at the Taranaki U19 squad with Millenium and Crusader.

I was more referring to his French (?) surname but agree there have been some interesting names.

The Reid family have continued to use Tori down through the generations - I don’t know whether they use the full name or just Tori though.
