  • As a schoolboy, Damian McKenzie captained the Christs College 1st XV often against bigger schools. Against the powerhouse of Otago Boys in 2013, McKenzie left the commentators speechless with an inspired performance in the traditional clash that almost pulled off a great upset. This is the game that put McKenzie on the map. #1stXVRugby #ChiefsRugby #AllBlacks

    I feel for McKenzie , in every other country he would be the fullback at international level but he always misses out on making the all blacks starting fullback role.

      McKenzie is the perfect impact sub, finding gaps when the opposition legs are tired. And then you can choose where he is best to deploy him at wing, 10 or 15.

    Accepting and partaking in part of a culture isn’t offensive. Don’t forget we all came from Africa. If you move somewhere, you should always embrace the culture. Over time those cultures become your own and those of your families.
    Anyway...everyone needs to calm down and appreciate this great video 👌🏻👍🏻
