    @nepia His time in the Bay is discussed in the vid, although obviously from his perspective 😉 ... there may even have been a few frames of footage of the Central Vikings as well ... 😖

    The Aussies are try hard Americans so they often say Resume instead of (the other words) - lots of them like to use American spellings as well - although that might just be because they let Microsoft Word do their spelling for them.

    Wayne says he took the Hawkes Bay job because he knew nothing about running an organization and thought it would be a vital skill for his future.

    He may or may not have given Hammer his play book. 🙂

    @infidel Yeah - lots of insights - especially around the earlier years.

    Wayne doing almost all the talking was different to what I thought it would be.

    @nepia That's pretty much what Wayne said.

    Now, sing it with the Monkees - "Aaiiiiii'm not your stepping stone...."! 🙂

    Extremely. Great fend and swerve too. How the fuck was Caleb Ralph an AB ahead of him?

    Watched this last night. Saw so many games at which I was a spectator. Very happy memories!
    The culture Wayne brought to the Canterbury team continues today in the Crusaders.
    Interestingly he praised Grizz as an innovator and an astute tactician. Somewhat at odds with his generally perceived persona.

    @wally A large number of NZ coaches trace back to that 1980s team of Grizz's - Smith, Hansen and Deans among the second generation, and now a heap in the third generation.

    Yep. Mauger, Gibson, Razor, Hammett, Hewitt, MacDonald, Blackadder, Matson, Feek, Somerville.
    And, no doubt, a few others.

    Finally watched the Wayne Smith doco. What else can you say but "Bloody Legend". What a great watch (apart from his try in Bernie's Corner to take the shield). The back story about him losing the ABs head coach job in 2002, his return, 2007 2011(still hard to watch) and 2015, he is a national rugby treasure
