is he the best ever RL convert??

bloody hell he was awesome on the weekend... there was a period of about a minute in that test where he kept taunting the french forwards to run at him... and the bloke just kept smashing them back... it was brilliant imo...

when you consider he switched to the tight-five not just an outside back like Sailor, Rogers, Tuqiri etc...

and weigh into the fact he took a massive drop in income and risk in coming from RL.. the guy just wanted to fulfill his dream of being an All Black.

he'd have to be near the top in both codes.

 

[Parra]

His record is unmatched.

Origin, NRL Grand Final, All Black, Super 14 Final.

He is nowhere near honored enough - but he will be in retrospect when his record, and his reputation is compared

 

[Thomas]

Quite possibly the best code convert ever. And he does it with a minimum of fuss. None of this bad mouthing whatever code he isn't playing.

Absolute champion.

Was my man of the match on the weekend- he, with Mealamu, were massive.

 

[Mr Saab]

His record is unmatched.

If he was an aussie he would have a statue made for him
