Pretorius gone

[Brumbies Guy]

Aah - so he was injured for the 2008 School tournament then.

He wasn't chosen in either of the Oz Schools teams in 2008 after the tournament (I have the list) but must have been added later after he proved fitness. It happens quite a lot because the Schools "test" matches are held in the following school holiday periods and lads have a couple of months to come right.

Unfortunately Michael Hooper wasn't so lucky in 2009. He had to have an operation and even missed the Schools EOYT.

Do you have the respective DOBs of Colby and Michael for my records?

Lee,

That’s right he was a late inclusion into the Aust Schools team after missing the Championships through injury. He and brother Anthony seem to have no luck when it comes to injuries.

Thanks Nod - only a 7 months difference then. I should be more careful in starting sentences with "Of course ......"
