Jonah Lomu

Why jonah lomu should be on the ten dollar note.


Jonah Tali Lomu was born on 12 May 1975 to 18 November 2015. Jonah
lomu was an inspiration to all rugby players. He was a big and strong winger.
Jonah lomu was an amazing rugby player so good he got a street in south
Auckland named after him. 


Jonah lomu's parents Hepi and Semisi Lomu were his biggest suportes,
they supported him even when people bullied him. people would bully and
criticise jonah.


He played for the hurricanes in wellington new zealand and was born in 
Greenland AucklandHe finished his international career with 63 caps and
37 tires.


Jonah Lomu was a very scrawny kid most people were bigger than jonah.
Most of the time he was called home for feeling ill, but his mum found out he
was faking it because of the bullying going on. But thankfully he had an extreme
growth spur, the growth spurt helped him pick up speed and get a lot more
momentum, he could also bowl over a lot of the Fords and other backs. 


All the other rugby clubs he played for were some of the best for the best
players. He played for the hurricanes, blues, the chiefs, the counties manukau
rugby club, wellington rugby football club, north harbour rugby union club,
and the cardiff blues and the best for last the All blacks.


This made him to become the youngest ever All Black in history when he
played his first international game  in 1994 at the age of 19 years and 45 days.
One of the reasons he was picked was for his unusually big size, extreme pac e
and his incredible strength and fantastic balance.
most wingers in rugby aren't that strong and if they are they are normally
incredibly small and lightweight.


But sadly jonah was diagnosed with nephritic syndrome, it is a very serious
kidney disorder that jonah lomu was diagnosed with. This kidney 
disorder was treated for him in Auckland City Hospital.


In May 2003, the NZRFU announced that Lomu had been put on dialysis.
Dialysis  keeps your body in balance by removing waste, salt and extra water
to prevent it from building up in the body. 
He was  treated three times a week due to deterioration in his kidney function.
But sadly he passed away at the age of 40  18 November 2015, Auckland. 

Former All Blacks players pay tribute to Jonah Lomu by doing an emotional
Haka during the memorial service. Friends, family and fans attended Jonah
Lomu's public memorial service on Monday to say goodbye to the New Zealand
rugby player after he died of a heart attack in the Auckland hospital.


He played in the 2002 World Cup and played 63 tests as an All Black, scoring
37 tries. In 2001 he helped New Zealand win the Rugby World Cup Sevens.
most rugby players either play for rugby sevens or super rugby, but Jonah
Lomu played both of them, jonah was one if not the most fit rugby players
ever to play. 


And that's why we think Jonah Tali Lomu should be on the ten dollar note. 

How to make cricket flour




We had to read a story titled 'Bugbix for Breakfast', which was about people eating bugs to save the world, slow 
down global warming etc. I have made a post about how to make Cricket powder! What can you do with this once you have made it? Well you can make bread with it, muffins, cakes, you name it! Not sure if I will be eating it anytime soon, but hey, different strokes for different folks!
