| Most Admired International Player | No one really but admire Jason Leonard for his grit and stamina, hope I can retire at his age!!! Most admired witney player - Debbie Gorrod who has taught me such a lot about being a 2nd row player, just wish I could keep up with her. I suppose I ought to mention Mr. Godfrey as he will definately get very annoyed with me, thanks Nick for introducing me to such a sport, I thank you every monday morning when trying to move my body after a game, (why couldn't he have played table tennis!!!!!) |

| Most Embarrasing moment off the Pitch |
I'm sure I have but none spring to mind |
| Best Match for Witney |
Our game against Old Leam's recently, a very hard fought game but the 1 I realy felt that I played my best in and that all the training seemed to come together and make sense. |
| Worst Match for Witney |
Has to be my first match ever against Oxford, Nick was going to put me on for the last 10 minutes so I could get a taster of the game to see if I liked it, our first sub had to go on almost immediately for an injury and then 10 minutes into the game another injury, Nick called for the 2nd sub but no sign so I had to go on and play in the 2nd row with Jen Jen with a promise from Nick that I would only play for 10 minutes then he would bring me off...... yeh right please note never listen to a rugby coach when they make promises on the touch line......70 minutes later, dazed, bewildered, battered but having realy enjoyed myself I came off when the whistle went, a few choice words were passed to our coach but it didn't put me off as I'm still here. |
| How to improve training | With coaches like Nick & Mickey we don't need to improve the training it's great as it is........ creep, creep, creep ( can I now have that shopping trip Nick that you promised if I wrote something nice?) |
| Remaining Rugby Ambitions | To keep playing for as long as my body allows, get fit and maybe even score a try. |
| Miscellaneous |
Other Sports Tried - Swam for the county when I was a teenager but nothing else much since then except horse riding. EDITORS COMMENT |
