RP @ 54 – a good read of the characters. I’m sure Larkham had his personality surgically removed sometime ago and Finnegan’s just a big oaf!!
Huxley’s family started a major Australian home building company, Huxley Homes, so they aren’t short of a quid! They build all over the country through franchises.
I agree with you, he would be a great ambassador for our game and for the benefits of good living . . .
Penalty Brumbies in their 22…should bring relief…
Giteau not doing more or better at inside centre…. not having the best season so far… except his kicks for posts are spot-on
Old Griquas
