    Cameron Jowitt was a very questionable character. He had way too much hair.

    Remembered for a glorious game against Toulouse but played like a backpacker for the rest of it. Got a Super 14 contract when he went south, didn't he?

    He was very solid for about his first 18 months. He kept some good players out of the side. For a bloke of his size, he was very agile with good hands. I reckon his presence was a factor in Miller quitting before time.

    Got a gig with the Waratahs but was cut before this season I think.

    Nah. Miller was bedevilled with injuries and just couldn't stay fit. Saw him after he finished playing rugby and couldn't get over how massive he was. Too big really and it probably contributed to the injury problems.

    Wow just reading Eric Millers wikipedia page. He played intercounty football for Dublin after retiring! All 17 stone of him.

    That doesn't seem right. I know he played for one of the senior clubs but I'm almost sure he didn't make the inter-county team.

    I remember playing against Wesley in school and them having a freak of nature at 10 that day. Singlehandedly dragged them to victory. He could do everything - kick, carry, tackle, barge through opposition. Unstoppable.
    It was Millet.

    No. Never played championship football for Dublin. Was a stalwart for Ballyboden St Endas though.
