    I cracked up when I saw this, look at that height and weight.

    Either he’s grown since I walked past him in the Supermarket the other week or I’ve shrunk

      @nostrildamus I'd say Blackwell is probably 1.93m, 110-115kg. He's slightly shorter than Caleb Delany who stands at 1.95m I think.

        The answer is about my height.

          4 cm is more than a rounding error! Wow. Shows those details are to be taken with a kilo of salt.

              @MN5 the canes show his height as 1.90. surely they wouldn't understate a locks height

                  So now he grows and shrinks 7cm between websites. Must have an extreme waterbed or sleeps on a medieval rack?

                        @nostrildamus I'm sure I don't have to tell you that photos taken with telephoto lens are always deceiving. 😉

                        This picture would be great for a caption contest though; just look at Alex Fidow. :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

                            Was a rumor in the Landers thread, but the recent photos of him on the Canes account (playing NPC) suggest that he is staying with the Canes.

                              Tis a shame. Someone else said he looked good in his brief AB cameo and I thought so too.

                                It was never a rumour, I just think many on here think he should make the shift south and team up with his brother. None of us would blame him either after he’s been completely shafted by Wellington.

                                  Even if you lose PUJ to the Landers

                                  Is this a sauce? He needs more gametime, somewhere.

                                  Was a rumor in the Landers thread, but the recent photos of him on the Canes account (playing NPC) suggest that he is staying with the Canes.

                                  speculation I think not a Rumour.

                                      @Winger All SR franchises have been more silent about signings than in previous years. Strange, considering there are plenty of players of who we know they were coming off contract this year.

                                        I don't want to become a stuck record on this. But Lakai is another the Canes must sign

                                        With the big improvement in form by Numia and Lomax the Canes could have some very good front row options. Bird has also surprised me this year so we could have some good lock options. We do need one more quality lock though.

                                        Lakai looks a future super star to me. He would add another high work rate option along with Savea. Maybe at 7

                                        In the backs Morgan has improved out of sight this NPC so we might have a quality 1st. But he needs to keep this up. So I'm feeling a bit more optimistic about our chances now. As long as they sign Lakai and resign Barrett

                                          Do you have room for Lakai in your LF mix with ?
                                          Blake Gibson, Te Kamaka (TK) Howden, Brayden Iose, Du'Plessis Kirifi, Tyler Laubscher, Reed Prinsep,Ardie Savea,and Caleb Delany
                                          all still signed I believe a real danger another team may pick him up.
