    I'm pretty sure that Southland wouldn't leave him out, and they were his first team. He was born in Invercargill, educated in Invercargill and had his first year of NPC for Southland. So I don't reckon Otago through and through.

    Which means that Otago can't have him. Two good options there though.

      yes, i have such vivid memories of him in a Southland shirt

      as opposed to in the Blue of Otago being fucking amazing.

          I'm just annoyed we didn't select Randell, Kronfeld and Timu when they were at high school ... although Randell would have only been 16 I think (he first played for Otago as a 17 year old).

            @Kiwiwomble Yes, the original team gets first selection.

            so a guy who plays 7 times for Southland as a 19 year old has to play there despite playing 56 times over 9 years for Otago?

            This concept is a sham

            This rule is there so that the 5 SR bases can't just select players that moved there, as was common in the 1990s and 2000s.

                  There has to be an exception to the rule though for Harbour given the NPC had been going for over a decade before they were formed

                  It's only if a player is claimed by 2 or more teams. Who does NH miss out on?

                        @mariner4life There will be winners and losers for players who played for more than one province. It makes selections less predictable. Just a bit of fun though.

                              I'm not making the rules. How many games should he have played for Southland to qualify? Having been raised there as well.

                              He went to Otago later for Uni I think? That's when he became a star. Otago through and through? I dunno.

                              I'm still a Kiwi after 20 years in Hong Kong. Leopards, spots.

                                    Yep. Could actually cobble together a good team over their history.
                                    Just not at the current time so much.

                                      My memory of him was that he always looked like he had been beaten to a pulp in a game but never slowed down. Like he couldn’t even feel pain.

                                        Bloody good guy too by all accounts. Southland very well served at 7 though. Henderson not up to Stewart who would be one of the best 7's NZ has ever produced.

                                          Very small sample size there. 1 match versing Japan ? RWC. The Marc Ellis one?
