    I was hoping he would be a big success for the blues but has hardly played.<br>
    Has he been playing any club rugby at all or blues development side? <br><br><br>

      <p>He's been playing for Takapuna prems on the wing. Looks average and lacking in real effort. Doesnt appear that keen to tackle.</p>

        <p>Had a chance against the Crusaders but didn't play well at all. Will probably get more of a look in now with Rieko and Ranger gone now.</p>

          <p>Missed the boat years ago with all his  injuries to make it in either code , </p>
          <p> </p>
          <p>Looked the natural athlete when he first debuted in the NRL , I go to a few Storm games and got to see a bit of him first hand ,</p>
          <p> </p>
          <p>The injuries he got were pretty cruel , pretty much missed 3 seasons , then came back a fraction of the player , </p>
          <p> </p>
          <p>Was surprised the Blues were interested  him to be honest </p>

            <p>If he gets a start ahead of Nanai I'll be livid.</p>

              <div>Wasn't really high on his signing, but was hoping he'd at least be good depth. I hope he's not here again next year, but I suspect he will be.</div>
              <div> </div>
              <div>When I saw that Elijah Taylor was thinking of coming to rugby, with some NZ team supposedly being interested in him, I was like, ''that better not be us''. Thankfully, he's signed with the Tigers.</div>

                  <p>When he played rugby, his position wasn't too far from 10 though. I remember him playing 2nd 5 for Auckland U18s when he was still at school.</p>

                    <p>They say "the bigger you are the harder you fall".......but the lesser known cliché of "the smaller you are the further you fly" is equally apt. Fuck me he got some serious airtime trying to tackle Naholo that time.....air traffic control just about had to be notified.</p>
