He'll end up like this: That's Phil Blakeway, he was even uglier when had a closely cropped hair as I watched the 5 Nations in the early 80's...he barely more than ambled all over the ground, but was a brilliant scrummanger...got to play for the Lions after his first season with England...

I have fond memories of watching the Sydney rep team in the seventies in the old Sports Ground where the SFS is on now, also at the TG Milner Field...Sydney often got international scalps whereas NSW even with the best from Sydney didn't... Also the North v South harbour games were entertaining...

No Henry Vanderglas? For me, he was the stand out in the Aussie Sevens' win in London with his kick off returns, notwithstanding Stannard's heroics...

My bad, sorry fellas...upon checking his Wiki, Croker had his visa application rejected due to being convicted and fined $10000 for an 'affray' outside a club in 2005...not for a driving conviction, but still, I have heard others being refused for that...a question in the immigration application...

that also showcased SBW's talents....

He should have known from paying so many fines that he would have been close to losing 12 points or more...and checked it out...I've had to do that myself and drive more carefully from thereon...

Am at presently undergoing immigration processes at the moment, and if a 'conviction' is recorded against you, it's the same as for driving whilst suspended as for drink driving...as opposed to just paying for traffic offences for speeding for example which do not involve a court appearance...

Strange scheduling there...ABs play in Oz, then return home for the match against Oz again, then fly over Oz to play in SA all in a two week period...

Disappointed that Ben Lenehan of GPS missed out too...he could play both fullback and wing...

Looks like Quade won't be able to work (i.e. play) in England seeing as he won't be able to get a work permit due to having a conviction recorded against him...so it might mean we are stuck with him all his playing life...

Just checking how many posts I have done so far... :D

Thanks for the article, just curious about Tendai Mtawarira's citizenship...he has played already for the Boks, so can't see what is the issue then...?

Ditto to two above... Plus a honourable mention to Mumm for a lift in form...

Ouch...

Is the delectable Amanda Shahala (sp.) still around? I recollect her articles three years ago in ABC website being so well written and then she worked for ABC as a sideline commentator/interviewer for the match of the day the next year...haven't heard a peep about her since then....

It's incumbent on Deans to tell Coops and Gits to get their act together and utilise Horne a lot more...

I know whom I'll go for if I have a say in these matters...

Wonder if anyone in Qld could tell me what has happened to George Brimmer, a backrower with tons potential, from Noosa? I lived in Noosa for several years up to couple years ago, and had met him few times, and was in the Red development squad last I heard, and would be in his last year of...
