  • prior to caucau playing for the Auckland Blues, Rupeni always had issues with getting to squad train and camps on time. then the coaches would name him in the run on side ahead of such talented players like Mils Muliana,Rico Gear...sometimes Doug Howlett would struggle for a spot...then after 1 or 2 games u would see why he was picked.

  • i think what happened to Caucau was the same thing that happened to Ronaldo, the guy who played for Brazil. Ronaldo was the best in the world and fully fit but then he had a bad leg injury, after that Ronaldo could train as much because of it and he got fat, Caucau also had a very bad leg injury in 2002 when he made his debut for the Blues, he was injured for that entire year and i guess after that he couldn't train as much and got fat.

  • the most dangerous player i have ever come across and if he had been more commited he would be the best player by far and he would teach brian habana how to play rugby so it is a shame that he made himself unavalable to the fiji team for the rest of his career and to think that he is playing in the second division in france is so mind numing that it is unbalivable cus he should be playing for toulouse,stade,toulon,or some other big clubs in europe

  • he's flying without wings lol

  • The title is wrong. This is not Rupeni in his prime. He was already a bit out of shape for this 2003 WC

  • its true in what i said too. I believe a 2nd or 3rd division NPC side would beat Italy in 87

  • he changed codes cause back in that time (late 80s-late 90s) league was handing out big cash to ex-rugby stars(the warriors made huge financial errors overpaying loads of their players,hence why they became broke)..JK went to the warriors for cash

  • I never said league dsnt have structure,I said the warriors played with little structure,and I agree more chance to shine more 1-1 opportunities but the warriors ddnt utilize him and give him those opportunities that was my reply to you saying he was nothing in RL.I also asked what do you consider nothing for the comment u made he did nothing after the world cup,cos after winning the NPC winning a world cup what else is left to do in rugby at that time? I guess maybe thats why he changed codes.

  • bs,league has heaps of structure, and u have more chance to shine as an individual cause (especially as a back) u get more 1-on-1 opportunities in attack. and theres more space(only 13 men on the field yet its the same field they play on)JK played in a team/era that NZ were basically professional and all the other nations were amatuer.they were 4-5 years undefeated. his try vs italy was outstanding,but Italy(back then) were like a 3rd division NPC team,actually in 87 a 3rd div NZ team beat ITALY

  • @BenKHouch JK wasnt over rated he was a great player who scored great tries what do you consider nothing?League is a totally different game and he was thrown in against veterans not to mention he was playing for the warriors,I bet if he was with manly or the raiders they would have utilized him better,the warriors played with little structure,pass the ball and expect JK to pull magic out his ass,not even Jonah would stand out like that cos Leauge is a team game no structure=nothing dont blame JK

  • He's got the weight and speed to be a good running back in the NFL!

  • hey coon. too much taro makes u impotent

  • yeah the twat (BenKHouch) has been spreading the same bullshit opinions on lots of other winger vids. sad

  • nah man Sivivatu is the shit, one of the best wingers of the decade.
