- Cassius Cleaves - #RememberTheName
Cassius plays for Wellington College and Harlequins' u18s side. The 17 year old winger has just finished his second season for his school.
With one of the best steps in the schoolboy game and pace to burn, Cleaves was selected for England u18s before the lockdown started, however there is no doubt that he will pick up from where he left off once this is all over.

Im waiting for the classic line " in NZ these guys are ten a penny" .
Buck shelfords ballbag we've already got the lets seem him against south African schools.
I’m kiwi and I cringe when I see that... especially when it comes from blokes who the only thing they’ve tackled is 10
Pints and a Kebab every night. He can only play what’s in front of him.He’ll do great. Raw strength and raw power. 2 things you can’t coach.
Really? I'm kiwi and this boy has great balance and speed off the mark, carries well, great step off both feet. Has X factor on attack, hopefully his defence is as equally strong too as well as solid kicking game as a winger he will need this when teams become more familiar and put him under pressure. One to watch out for in the future for sure.
@Gavin O Connell Lol
There is literally not 1 comment on here from a Kiwi saying that. I think your all shite
Interesting. He very much reminds me of a younger, faster, fitter me but with a sidestep
As a 110kg loosehead this lad would give me nightmares
What a name! I smell greatness. He's like a mix of J Robinson and Sinoti Sinoti.
Correct
He made his first debut for quins first team the other day
mans has the ability to create running channels for himself when there are multiple defenders in front of him and he's completely flat-footed/isolated on the wing. same exact ability as anthony watson.
Doesn’t even do him justice on him, we couldn’t even get near him last year and we have a solid D he just finds and exploits the weakness and then it just opens up
Ah you boys are just soft in defence. He won't get passed mens level.
Brilliant 🙌🏻🔥
My bro❤️🙌🏻
Keep at it young fella and hope to see you play down under one day 🤟🏽
Quins have an outstanding player in young Cleaves... if the pressure doesn't affect him too much.
Brillant
as an OW this is mad to see, big up Cass
Joshua Agbede OW?
@@Cdz.cpo.09o Old Wellingtonian
Quick, can step off both feet and has a superhero name #RawPotential #YouJustGotCleaved
Reminds me of Rico Gear. Just a professional try scoring machine
Massive shout
Hopefully him and radwan come up against one another in the future, that would be scenes.
Gonna be a few years yet, atm Radwan smokes him
O k yeah he’s just been put as one of the wingers of the season, hopefully he does bits next season In the top league.
@@Ok-he9ze If you mean adam radwan at Newcastle, he's like 6 years older tbf
Not a bad future back 3: Radwan, Arundell, Cleaves...
Shades of cheslin kolbe ? The lad looks to be a prospect for sure. A long road to fulfilling his potential and I wish him every success.
Pace and can step off both feet with the ability to spot a gap & take it...very few have all those attributes.
look into jake sterland, top try scorer for tigers academy (winger) hes a machine< was 25h fastest in the country for his age
What about a prop like fin Baxter
Also Wellington
How do I get on the remember the name series?
jacob ferguson be a notable rugby prospect for the future
don’t want to say it but reminds me of a schoolboy jonah lomu
✍️
He is a very,very good young player and if he ran with the ball in two hands he would be a worldbeater.
He reminds me a bit of David Fifita (the young Broncos star, not the other one) - although Cassius is not so well conditioned. See what you think - th-cam.com/video/iFz4ivtuL2M/w-d-xo.html - footage of early rep football as a teenager. Note also Tanah Boyd at 6 - a name to look out for. Boyd was at Keebra Park State Highschool with Fifita. This is Keebra winning the Gio Cup in 2017 - check the first hit up of the final - next level intensity and super high skill levels throughout. -th-cam.com/video/BBVJtQgJEi0/w-d-xo.html . Fifita has blossomed nicely and is playing very impressive football, running over 1st graders in NRL last season as a 19 yr old - th-cam.com/video/9j_9YbwJP44/w-d-xo.html
I moved to NZ from Wales 20 yrs ago and I think it's true that NZ have many prodigious talents.
I have coached some great young players,but they seem to fall by the wayside because they find women,alcohol,drugs,a much easier way of life.
Obviously the English have a massive player pool to choose from and really should win 6N and RWC every time.
It's not the size of the dog in the fight,you know the rest.
There are many parallels betwenn my Wales and NZ in that they both punch way above their weight in many sports.
What point are you making?
Go to Welsh comment. Small player pool. Although NZ have been punching far above Wales since 1953.
@@BloodSport4All well,they do have 100k more registered rugby players in NZ than Wales,but I will concede that NZ have had it over Wales for a very long time.
@@nigelclats6970the small player pool argument doesn't really make sense anymore. Most of you're players are English (amongst others)
@@BloodSport4All please enlighten me on our English player pool.
We had two kiwis ready for world cup,now none,all the "English" players you talk about are playing for Wales by birthright,so not sure what point you are making.
NZ doesn’t - I live there. I’d be more worried about SA cos they actually do
Looks to to be easily premiership standard already, give him a professional contract.
Ridiculous comment. He’s hardly playing against the same level of opponent.
@@Kkpb-fh5vt Not saying it's the same level. All i'm saying is he's so far ahead of the the rest of the U18 guys the next logical step is senior rugby. It's not like it's unheard of isn't it? Gabriel Ibitoye signed a professional contract at Quins when he was 18 years old and he was a similar type of talent at this age.
John West you’ve just turned a ridiculous comment into a completely reasonable one.
He’s built 💪
Fsfdddsfqrefsfwrddfdfdff dw dwefsqfcdsdddcc. Bhugovcgfgfggfggfffffcccxxxx if gdfddfff fgfgfgffgtthfggfg
In SA he'll play in the scrum. :-)
Looks great playing against Henry’s and Rupert’s. Even at academy level unions tackling is awful.
wonder if this blokes got any kiwi heritage in him
seems like it..................cyc!!! ; )
didnt england beat you in the rwc ?
As usual, Cornwall is never looked at. There's a lad, 3 years younger than the very talented Mr Cleaves. 95kg and quicker, still some work for the step CC has, but wait until this boy hits the scene!
CASSUIS IS MY NEIGHBOURS SON LOL IN MORDEN BISHOPSFORD ROAD WOOHOOO GO CASSIUS
Erm... ok
rugby hooha
that kind of talent be a waste on the wing,you want him handling the pill a bit more often
maybe he could evolve and grow into a fullback soonish
England will find a way to ruin him.
Do you mean like the ruined NZ at the last World Cup?
Jac Lloyd would fold him
I think he is brilliant player but don’t think he will make it because of his size and defence
How big is he?
Dynamite comes in small packages
What do you mean size? He doesn't look undersized at all here.
Some of the defence displayed by these ‘pro teams’ is fucking abysmal my club team could put on a better show
Ofcourse he's quick he's black. Black people are fast runners
Simple answer. No
He's good but not the best by a long stretch.... plenty of lads out there that have as much talent who don't get the chance to show case it!!
Mark rooney I doubt it
Yep, lots of his kind of speedsters down South. He looks fantastic with the opposition 'standing off him,' and not a quality line-defence 'chopping him hard'. Very good talent though, but not the eye-holding class of say, Douggie H, or Joe Rok, to name but a very small number, at schoolboy age group. I hope he emerges from this schoolboy level to eventually be World class at Elite senior level. Just my opinion.
pass the ball to the guy that can run down the wing with a few turns and now he is world class for the future
Looks more like a prop on the wing have seen a lot better at regional level
Prop? Pahaah wtf
Doesn't help that the opposition can't take poor coaching makes this lump look good
Another South Sea Islander showing the others the way to go by example. Buy two, get one free down South. England need their like in order to compete at the same level.
He's mixed race (black/white). Not every brown lad in the UK is an islander you bitter tool
@@Victor-bi9rc I am not a bitter tool, please do not be rude to me. So he's a multi, WOW! similar to Nehe, good on him. But like it or not Vic, he is a South Sea Islander; black,brown, white, or yellow/ mixed multi, or an admix of all, just as a South African is. Lighten up man, I meant no offence to him or any South sea Islander, and most are tops at rugby.
@@KernowekTim how the fuck is he a pacific islander? I just told you he is mixed race, Afro Caribbean & white. He is from the same side of London as I am. There are nearly zero Pacific islanders here, unlike Aus or New Zealand. I first thought maybe I was harsh calling you a tool but your response clearly shows you still are one, banging on with your Pacific Island conspiracy. How can he be similar to Nehe Milner-Skudder when Nehe has zero black heritage? If anything this kid is more like Anthony Watson/Kyle Sinkler/Jonathan Joseph /Lewis Ludlam. If you actually grew up in South East England this would make complete sense. Instead your probably some foreign tool who thinks he knows alot more smart than he actually does.
A South Sea islander with a black man's name. What a stupid comment.
Yeah in private schools
A yes that well known private school Harlequins u18.
Mate public school rugby is higher standard than state
Ofc he goes to private school. They scout club games and put on them on scholarship usually going into year 9
Cooper Shires-Robertson no the point I was trying to get through but ok cheers
Kellen Harvey as far as I can see lad, your comment had no point.
