So he has had 3 years in the Premiership.
2 of those years at Waitakere.
1 of those years he was a 1st name on the sheet player.
Now he is in Wellington and we should give him a go?
Until he sorts out his personal issues (clowning a ref and picking a fight with Muscat) I wouldn't pick him. Its not like he has set the Premiership on fire like Jordan, Young, Totori (when he was at YHM) in the 3 years he has been the league. I'd also ask if he was a better player than Mulligan (who didn't make it) Clapham (who is an All White) and Vicelich (who is also an All White) in the same league.
I stand by my statement and back it up.
edit: I'll also add that he loses nothing becoming a better player getting 90mins in the league he is in for a couple of years. If he is not putting them away against Premiership defences, what chance has he got against A League defences? At least then he has got a couple of years to show that he is a legitimate goalscorer cause if he is, he should at least take the golden boot at least once. Why would you pick someone just to sit on the bench at best.
