Re: Ireland v Land of the long white lockdown Official Match Thread
For the bold, you're just making things up, I haven't said that at all. As for your list of players, Frizell is the only one who could be regarded as remotely close to a project player. Reece and Taukeia'ho came to NZ for high school. At any rate, that's irrelevant to my point as I never claimed we...
