Proud dad moment as my son got player of the day. He plays Loosehead Prop so not a position that stands out. He plays Under 11 and because he was too heavy is playing up one grade so is playing with kids a year older. Good that the coach recognised him.

I'm not saying it is but from the same moment.

Photo I found would have been moments later.

That's Messam

Beaver played for Waiuku on Saturday so is keeping fit. I would prefer he played for Counties again if keen.

My first car was a 1982 Daihatsu Charade, bought in around 2001 after getting my restricted. Wrote it off after crashing on a sharp corner on a Frosty Foggy morning the day after Queen's Birthday.

Got my Learners Licence after second test (failed verbal) Got my restricted on third test, My main problem was nerves. I sat on my restricted for over ten years. I did a one day course seven years ago and passed for my full licence test first time.

The draws link is handy to find who is playing in other grades. I'm working out where all of my Te Rapa club's players went to from last year.
