Just wondering if anyone knows any interesting rugby players worth following on twitter.
I enjoy the tweets of some american sports personalities like shaq and I assume a nz rugby player with a bit of personality could generate quite a high profile and following.
actually i dont hear much about any famous kiwis being as active on twitter as say those in the UK.

I know Tialata likes to do status updates on his facebook page.....which may explain why many rugby players don't use twitter.... xzxsarcastic
He saw it and it said "SPANK ME"! - Mark Richardson.

Tialata (@neyza3) has one, as does Cory Jane (@soup15).
Tialata's is kinda funny. Posted lots of pics from the dress up night between the Oz test and the Welsh one.

Tialata is the 'twitter king' of the All Blacks and is worth following. Jane doesn't say so much, but is still ok. Tialata puts some pretty cool photos up too. They're the only rugby players I follow.

I saw some of Nathan Grey's posted on another site, he's still an angry little man.Is there any point in taking roids in Japan?
I haven't kicked a ball in about six weeks. At the time I didn't think it would be important, but it turned out that way. "My mates are probably thinking 'there's the bloke who was kicking back with a few beers and going whitebaiting with us out in the middle of Eden Park'.
"My preparation hasn't been ideal. When you go whitebaiting you usually take a couple of beers with you. So my fitness was probably not what it could have been. Fortunately I only had to hold out for 50 minutes."

Tialata has a good one(photos/vids are very good-interesting one of Jimmy in the changing rooms after the test and the capping ceremony for Guildford). Jane has one and so does Tamati. Neyza posts the most. Skinstad and Matfield have twitter accounts too. I like Carling's one too.

Sonny Shaw's is worth a look. Probably played code at some stage.
Matt_Gagger is brilliant.

Tialata's has been surprisingly entertaining. Twitter King indeed.

While much maligned as a player especially on TSF he's definitely a character....
