Waste of a schollie? You think 6'7" 322 pro rugby player is our worst lineman?

How many linemen do we have on both sides that have never seen the field? Taking athletes and turning them into players is what made TCU good originally and what the NFL does in the draft every year. It's not a bad strategy for some positions.

I don't get the excitement over two major projects

Is a Kiwi considered a Poly? Honest question, I really don't know.

Also, I'd rather take chances on physical specimens than bodies that are tall

ChubbyChaser

He's Samoan.

Manase is from New Zealand. Mo is from Tonga.

ChubbyChaser

5/23/15 9:16am

But he's not Maori or Kiwi. He's a Samoan New Zealander.

Mantis Mutu

He is Kiwi (nationality) AND Tongan (ethnicity) even he says he is Tongan/kiwi

I'm gonna have to concede here. I'm just dead wrong.

No big deal. I would not have known unless someone linked his Twitter earlier.

Fui Vakapuna is from Utah; is someone from Utah "considered a Poly"?

Are you serious?

Since we had a previous player by the name of Manase TONGA

the article said Tongan

The n's in his name make that clear, I believe

Don't let the produce section fool you. Kiwis should come in 12-count cartons.

A Kiwi is a white New Zealander.

Mantis Mutu

5/23/15 9:22am

A kiwi is anyone from New Zealand regardless of ethnicity.

kalifi

5/23/15 9:45am

the Polynesian natives of New Zealand are known as Maori

claw

Poly refers to ethnicity...Maoris, Samoan, Tongan, etc. not nationality.

You can't coach that size and both are athletic too. Good risk since most

Mickey

Well, if they end up to be first rounders like Ziggy

2FarGone

5/23/15 9:10am

Right because after 10 seasons there's no evidence of that

RockyBalboa

5/23/15 9:12am

Well, the fact that he continually starts walkons

2FarGone

Broncos walk on development is unparalleled!

That's three young men you've attacked already today and it's not even 10:00am.

zeke

What would they do without our moral highness to stand up for them?

RockyBalboa

Zeke, delete your account. I don't think you get what fan forums look like.

Do we need specific names to make this point? Seems harsh.

CoopDizz

Ziggy is a terrible comparison. he was a track athlete

CarolinaCoug

Put down your iPhone and post when you are at a laptop or desktop...sheesh

Better guys with a lot of upside than these white 2* we been getting

if you're clueless then just don't worry about it

southernfriedcougar

5/23/15 11:55am

I see where you are coming from though. I think Manase is a safer bet than Mo.

No risk no reward my friend. If you look at schollies like an investment,
