Māori All Blacks to play Ireland?
-
@Crucial No pure wingers available or selecting players that can play multiple positions like Havilli?
-
@broughie Shame they can't find a brother of IWL playing in the back blocks of the East Coast somewhere. That would fulfill the Maori ancestry requirement as well as the getting the Fijian genes needed to be a decent winger.
-
@Higgins Unfortunately, the only brother of IWL that I know of, is a prop. Not sure whether he's fast and can be transformed into a wing.
@Stargazer Put him up against George Bridge and we will see.

if this was NZ A imagine the players getting exposure...

@Higgins The East Coast is not the only place to find Maoris. Most of NZ rugby players have some maori DNA in them. How about Ennor? Surely his relatives tasted of the forbidden fruit. :-).

@Bovidae So how good are the coaches?
Well for a start they wouldn't know a winger if they fell over one.
Strange comment. There aren't that many Māori wingers in SR. Our best Māori winger plays at centre for the All Blacks.
Going through the SR outside back lists: Stevenson (more fullback than wing) is in the squad, Lowe is injured, CG-B is in the squad, Moorby and Love are in the squad (both are also more fullbacks than wings). Looking at midfielders who can possibly play on the wing: Tupaea is in the ABs; B Sullivan, Nankivell and Poihipi are in the squad.

It was a dig at them as Chiefs coaches as well. Two teams, bugger all firepower on the wing.
