    Sudan was 44 yrs old and euthanised due to poor health.

    But fuck those poachers and their Asian paymasters.

    Edit: a poignant photograph.

    When Winnie divorced Nelson she said she wanted half of what he had.....

    So he threw her in jail for 13 years.

    No love for Fergie McCormick? 😲

    Not even from the Cantab's?

    Fearless fullback through one of our greatest era. Staunch provincial legend. World record holder at the time (most points in a test - 24 from memory) and by all accounts a top bloke

    I have a signed copy of his book at home somewhere. Found it in a secondhand shop. From memory the main theme was what a tough little bugger he was.

    Was on a flight between SFO and LAX today. Reading the New York Times and the leading obituary was Keith Murdoch.

    Redirect Notice

    Not a bad read and was written by Huw Richards who, presumably, was the Welshman Buck KO’d in 1987. When he woke up he was sent off.
