      So @Dan54 is just making shit up, cheers @Chris @gt12

      How long is the season?

      Mate I get the info off web, so maybe that was naking it up, but with a salary cap of %00 grand ain't leaving much room for big money, unless you a fromer test player atc.

        Why do we have a whole thread about McClutchie anyway? I don't even think the likes of Richie or Dan had their own threads on the Fern. McClutchie must be doing something right.

                  I’m hoping someone starts a thread about how Ethan Blackadders off season training is going.

                          I assume you call this the web? I just googled it yesterday out of boredom.
                          I only glanced at it, and could be out of date, but don't really care, just what came up.

                                  That's because he's always been fairly chunky/solid - you're the one spotting the extra extra chins.

                                    Why do we have a whole thread about McClutchie anyway? I don't even think the likes of Richie or Dan had their own threads on the Fern. McClutchie must be doing something right.

                                    86 posts and counting of decent discussion about the player, so he's certainly earned his own thread.

                                    We aren't at Toeava or A Ioane yet though.

                                    I'm now plotting my next Bay player to discuss to get them their own thread too - sadly I'm in the middle of Course Advisory Committees so have had limited opportunity to comment since it went to it's own thread. 😉

                                      Some of them (not me of course) are both Bay and Canes fans.

                                        I'll get shot down for this, but think Bay fans have rose-tinted glasses with McClutchie. Is he the second coming of christ? No.

                                        No one from the Bay has claimed he's the second coming of christ. If that's where you're coming from you're wilfully missing the point ...

                                        I'm not wilfully missing the point. My point is that Hawke's Bay fans have their blinkers on with McClutchie. Every now and then there are players who shoot through the NPC and are extremely unlucky not to get Super Rugby contracts, but that sort of things has happened in all sports forever. There are always lucky player and unlucky players - there is not an issue with the Super Rugby contracting system just because McClutchie didn't get a contract.

                                        It isn't like he is a new player, has previously spent time in camp with the Highlanders and possibly some of the other NZ sides, also ignoring that he was with MP. Several new 10s have been signed up, and they have not signed McClutchie. Considering the amount of new players signed, if teams were really interested they would have found a spot for him (Unless he turned a contract down).

                                        Despite what some might think, the fact no team wants him tells you there is a reason why. Without evidence, I wouldn't suggest it is anything sinister, so there is obviously things in his game they don't like.

                                          The whole point is that according to Super Rugby Coaches they think that Lincoln isn't in the top 15 first fives in New Zealand. And to me that's just fucking bullshit.
