Nie vir sensitiewe lesers nie

Net eers gou sê dat ek nie besig is om te “stir” nie, al dink baie van julle so. Ek het nog nooit ‘n geheim daarvan gemaak oor wie ek ondersteun nie en ek glo ook dit is my voorreg om baie “passionate” te raak oor my span. Nou wil ek hulle ook beskerm met die volgende inligting.

Ek moet gedurig hoor ons het die omliggende eilande al leeg gesteel. Toe besluit ek maar om so ‘n bietjie navorsing te doen oor wie is waar gebore en daarom kan ek vandag die volgende statistieke aankondig:

Gebore Kiwi’s: 76.7%

Samoa-Kiwi’s: 16.7%

Fidji-Kiwi: 3.3%

SA-Kiwi: 3.3%

Nou voordat iemand sê: “So 20% van die span is tog gesteel”, wil ek net bysê dat DIE HELE 20% AL VAN LAERSKOOLDAE AF IN NZ WOON EN DUS HUL RUGBY HIER KOM LEER HET. Selfs Greg Rawlinson het in ‘n onderhoud gesê dat hy hier in NZ regtig kom leer het hoe om te speel.

Van Samoa: Rodney So'oialo Chris Masoe Jerry Collins Isaia Toeava Malili Muliaina

Van Fidji: Joe Rokocoko

Hieronder is die huidige All Black-span en die statistieke van die ouens wat “ingevoer” is of wie se ouers al jare gelede nog voor hulle kinders sterre was hierheen geïmmigreer het. Julle kan self ook op hulle name gaan kliek om te kyk waar hulle vandaan kom.

So die van julle wat nou weer julle “toys” uit die “cot” wil gooi soos verlede week oor my opinie, voel welkom om dit te doen - FEITE IS FEITE. Nog beter, vra my net om julle van my epos-lys af te haal.
