General Alex Glen?

[casso_old]

Does anyone know the Alex Glen story?I thought he was a guy who was born or came to Austalia very young in life but after I heard an interview with him I realised this was not the case.He is going to be some kind of player in my opinion and a fine leader also.

 

[danco_old]

All I know that he is a Kiwi.

Northcote / Cook Island heritage / close to Kiwi selection

Been unlucky has Alex over the past of couple of seasons in terms of making the Kiwis. I think he's been 18th man twice for the ANZAC test and has never made a Four Nations squad.

He'd definitely be in my final squad for the end of the year. It's just tough for him as there's so many good players in his position (Mannering, Smith, Blair, Pritchard, Harrison etc.). I guess the quality he has is his utility value although I think second-row is his best position.

 

[Tyrael_old]

He's better than Mannering and Harrison. He tears it up for Brisbane.

Would be in my squad asap

 

[Chch fan_old]

If his form continues he's got to be in at seasons end. If you picked the side tonight Glenn would have to be ahead of Brown and Harrison who have both dropped off since the test. In Brown's case hasn't been helped with stints in the centers but hopefully he pulls out a blinder tonight!

Shot bro.. you jinxed him!!

 

[Chch fan_old]

Yup should have keeped my mouth shut! Hopefully it's just a couple of weeks.

 

[JAH_old]

Not sure but must be the first non ozzie to captain the broncos he deserves his spot in the 4 nations team ahead of Harrsion and Pritchard plus he can play centre stand off and hooker

 

[NEWBIE_old]

there are some quality young Kiwi forwards who have stepped up huge this season the Likes of Kevin Proctor, Alex Glenn and James Tamou have been fantastic for their clubs this season and have to be a chance of making the four nations squad ahead of more experinced players

Yeah...Brown, Harrison, even Pritchard aren't in top form for their clubs. Glenn you'd say would be a must for the end-of-year tour.

I also like the look of Tamou and Bromwich

 

[JAH_old]

Rangi Chase James Tamou and Fai Fai Loa should be a chance for 4 Nations team.

 

[Fazz_old]

If Manu is out, Faifailoa is a must imo. Ofers some of te same attributes.

Wasn't Glenn the one that devoted the rest of his career to Sonny Fai?

 

[NEWBIE_old]

Is Alex Glenn eligible for selection for the Kiwis this year didn't he reprsent the Cook Islands last year?

 

[2big2strong_old]

That Cook Islands game vs NSW country didn't count as a test match. There were a few players including Glenn and Zeb Taia that only played after they were guaranteed by the RLIF that they would still be eligible for NZ.

 

[danco_old]

He should be in the 4 nations team at least on the bench.
