Rudi must of been baptised by the bloke down below. A very talented player that has been savaged by injury in unfortunate times.He just has'nt had the rub of the green during the last few years.The wheel will turn this year and he will make people sit back and say..this guy is good.
1 cap last year only after getting back to full fitness after a freak accident pre season( wrist recon) then run on at Carisbrook(Dunedin) 06,firing on all cyclinders and breaks his lower leg near his ankle, half way through the first half. Us innFORCERs were at the game and basically it happened right in front of us the tough bastard played on for awhile before being subbed.
Rudi, will this season partner Sharpie as his fellow lock.This will even enhance our lineout even more.Rudi has nous and a presence on the park.
Lets wish him a injury free season, so he can finally show his wares and enjoy some success.
