A good old saying is that footballers spend 90 minutes pretending they are injured. Rugby players spend 80 minutes pretending their not. Also there is no such thing as bad weather only the wrong clothes.:18604.jpg

Wasn't he the "Aussie Beach sprint champion" that broke his leg and went back to Oz? He could catch pigeons and score for fun if put in the clear! icon_rolleyes.gif

Good stuff everyone, though can I just say that you can pick people you didn't actually watch - maybe you just know of their reputation and would dearly like them in your team, and don't forget you can pick someone from any era - we had some cracking players in the early days.

Keep 'em coming, thanks icon_thumb.gif
