    I really respect his father for the way he has raised his children especially his son who followed his foot steps. Coming from a Polynesian background the expectations are so high and can be overwhelming to the point you no longer want to pursue it. This is the example the new generation of parents need to follow. All the best to Caleb in his rugby career

      @@AdrianKerr that's not it at all. When he was at his peak in 96 and 97 he was behind Frank Bunce who was the undisputed best centre in the world at the time and also the all blacks were red hot so there was no need for changes. Believe me if he had got an opportunity in 96 or 97 when he was at his absolute prime he would of destroyed international opposition. Something you have to remember with NZ rugby is that we have so many good players who don't even get a good crack at international rugby because of the depth of talent. Another guy in eronis situation was Todd Miller. If there had been no Christian Cullen we would be talking about Todd Miller as one of the games greatest ever fullbacks.

    I honestly think he’d make a solid centre. His ability to set up whoever it was outside him last week against the highlanders proved that. Strong in the tackle and having the ability to offload. He’s fast he’s strong and runs good lines. Hope to see him at 13 one day.
