great player, leads by example always giving 100% and he's one of those rare players that goes 80min every week and never slow down or succumb to injury. Was the chiefs best player in 2010 and looks like he will be that again this year. Very commited to the teams needs, interesting watching him and how he devalops and puts on bulk when he's needed to play #8 and losses weight and devalops speed when needed or when selected for a 7's rep team.
Hope to see him in the All Blacks for the world cup, one thing he needs to work on a bit is judging when to push for on offload and when to hold posession. That's really the only part of his game where errors are coming and errors need to be cut right down for world cup test rugby.
