    Good on him, but hopefully the media doesn't put pressure on him. Joining a 3rd division team is like joining a local club team in NZ. He's doing it more for the love of the game than anything else.

    I hope he goes well enough to really enjoy himself and as he has said, he hopes his little bit can help the club with promotion to Division 2.

    There is no doubt Shane Williams has talent but the fact remains, he is a midget. Ask yourself these simple questions, Who would you rather tackle? Who would you rather be tackled by? The true sadness around the legend that is or was Johna is that his career was cut short by a very serious illness. There is no doubt that had he been able to play to his full capacity and had an International career even half as long as Shane Williams or the likes of Howlet or Rocococo - no record would have been left unbroken. Just so you know, All Blacks currently have a young man playing on the blindside who has the explosive power, ability to step both ways and run through any current international winger - quietly going under the radar at the minute playing in number 6. Moved almost secretly into a super 14 side after demolishing all at R7WC and promoted to All black squad without any fuss, fan fare or drama, being groomed to explode in 2011. He sits on the bench for 70 mins each test and when he does come on he is only running defensive sets, once he starts playing half games and has a chance to be involved in offense movements and supported by the All Black back three, NZ will have the strongest blindside attack ever assembled, he will be a try scoring machine - In 13 months time all others will fear the rise of Victor Vito. Could this be the second coming?

    wow, don't know if he is still at his best, but division 3 will be easy compared to internatioal rugby. Lets just hope he plays well, and doesn't hog the ball like he used to sometimes! but then again, he is a wing, so he normally is the end attacker.

    Good on the big guy ! Hope it goes well for him.

    Would be cool to see him stampeding over opposition to score tries

    again.

    Poor Jonah, only his body matured, his mind never did.

    I think he should chuck it in and retire gracefully!
