Our paths didn't cross either....my last year was 2004

Didn't realise you were such a young fella

Old enough to be remembering myself as better and better each year!

What a factory....

[Number 10]

At Lindisfarne College in his final year - 1987 - a guy called John Timu scored 52 tries for the first XV.

Our coach only brought that up about 52 times a season @Number-10 . Apprently he stepped 17 players to score a try against TA

@Stargazer trade out his name for mine in that article and would describe me when I was there. Real battler who worked hard (although wasn't good at athletics). If only I went to Canterbury I would be an all black.

Trivia.
George Bridge's father (Crispin) grew up round the corner from me in a little town called Manutuke outside of Gisborne. Only son with six other girls. George pretty much looks exactly like Crispin.

Question is, did you ever have breakfast with them?

That maths teacher is probably one of the funniest teachers out!

Crazy the video said he only played one season in firsts. Jesus.

Two things I took out of that....

1. They changed the school haka....

2. They figured out a way to make the uniform worse. Red blazer + Kilt!
