Was a massive fan of his and was stoked when we signed him. My first live game I saw was Kiwis vs GB in palmy in about 96, he sparked an all in by doing a nut tap in the ptb
Can't find the footage on YouTube. I'll keep looking. Think he was playing for the All Blacks midweek team or 7s. Can't remember. It was vs Fiji tho.

Do you remember Ian Roberts beating up the French League team after one of the players called him a F word that rhymes with Maggot ? Lol.
No but I do remember him rearranging Garry Jacks face 1 sunny day

Ask Graham Lowe about his defensive organization qualities especially at Manly.
You might learn something about football rather than making smiley faces.
Smiley faces never tackled Jack Shit
[/QUOTE]
What team did Jack Shit play for?

I read zinnys autobiography and he tells a very different story about all that.
He did say he was worried about being a target though because of the flashy name and all black status- thought all the leaguies would be trying to take his head off.
Just about 16.40 in to this. Man he was running pretty quick thereI'll try & find the footage. He mouthed off at someone. Nek minit, They chased that mofo to kill him
