Shock, and pity imo.
But he’s certainly helped regain some credibility to the Wallaby jumper.
Now, where do we go from here ?

The recent Kiama Sevens tournament has been run and done with the Cup Final
being won by Eastwood 24 over Warringah 10.
Fun day had by all, but actually, all this is just an excuse to insert this pic of the actual Kiama footy grounds - simply spectacular:

That seems extremely appropriate considering how quickly they melt when the heat is on them.A brilliant marketing tool would be is if they could get Cadbury's to make chocolate Wallabies to sell at half time.

Hey legend Tiger One I just saw a copy of an article in Rugby World about how West Harbour and Southern Districts both struggling for survival ? What’s the story ?

Champion @Halbrowne61, I haven't seen the article but it's about half way in the Shute Shield comp for this season, and both West Harbour and Southern Districts are languishing down at the bottom of the ladder, so I'd suppose that's the nuts and bolts of the story.
There's no "survival" struggle in the big picture that I'm aware of.
In fact, the ppl I speak to at West Harbour are very optimistic of a positive run as the season goes on (for me, I'd love that to be true but I'm not so sure).
