This is the Joseph Goebbelsesque bio on the Highlanders web site…
Jake Paringatai started his Super Rugby career with the
Crusaders back in 2007 after making his domestic debut for Northland in the NPC
back in 2003. A hard-nosed loose
forward, Paringatai has been plying his trade in the Japanese Top League over
the past few seasons. He will join a
Highlanders forward pack that has plenty of experience and he will be a good
fit for the men from the South.
There’s of course a gapping hole in this account of
Paringatai’s rugby career.
Perhaps a reason why he went off overseas to ply his trade?
Back in 2009 the then-Crusader was found guilty of Sexual Assault.
That’s him in the photo leaving court.
His lawyer tried to paint a picture of a player no longer
able to be a part of the New Zealand rugby scene.
A good fit for the men of the south?
I hope the WAG’s of the Highlanders wear something skimpy to
after-matches.
