Pick Your (or any) High Schools' All-Time Greatest XV

Shitty old Kamo High. There's a few gaps to fill
I think this is all the players that went on to play Super Rugby? There was a good period in the early to mid 90's
1 Con Barrell (I think he went there? Before my time..)
2 Scott Linklater

4 Ian Jones

7 Justin Collins

10 David Holwell

12 Nick Collins
13 Hayden Taylor

15 Todd Miller -
@Magpie_in_aus Yeah, I thought about the Thompson twins, but it's an all time greatest thread, so I wondered whether there are more Napier Old Boys who've actually played for the ABs, MABs, SR, U20 and NPC (in that order), before looking at talented youngsters. As Tyrone Thompson would, no doubt, have made the U20s this year, I'll put at 2.
Colin Bourke will have to take the 6 jersey, although I have to admit I was tempted to give it to Trent Boswell-Wakefield.
Rolls (16) and Waenga (22) get a spot on the bench.
I'll amend the list in my previous post.
@Stargazer Weber vs Forster?
-
@Duluth I had assumed Todd Miller had went to CCNZ for some of his secondary school education like his uncles, but it appears not.
Con Barrell is another from Kamo.

I just edited my post to add Con Barrell
Todd was at Kamo but didn't play for the 1st xv. He opted to play club rugby instead

@Duluth think Holwell played mostly for MN too...forgt about Con, did Jason Barrell make super rugby?

He did play SR.. I assume he went to Kamo too
Add in a few Northland reps and the Kamo side isn't too bad

@Duluth yeah I think Dooley played some of the inter-school stuff, but for Saturday comps I think he played for MN.
