Quote The Chair Maker="The Chair Maker"Johnson didnt have a spell down under, he spent his childhood there and therefore learned his RU playing at junior and senior school before being selected for the Junior All blacks at around 18/19 years of age

That is pure BS!! Was every part of your ‘story’ made up from the top of your head? It's amazing how people want to twist facts and dates to achieve the end goal of knocking RU!
He went over in 1989! He was already 19/20 and he only spent two years there and yes he did play for the NZ u21 side but he had already achieved England honours at the lower levels before this. Plus he had a contract with the tigers in England to come back to! Hardly call that spending his childhood and senior school days there!

| Quote Catalancs="Catalancs"france played running rugby about 10 years ago if i remember rightly.
when they had ntamack on the wing (is was ntamack wasnt it?)'"
Yup, just before the advent of Bernie "the Door" who tried to emulate Woodward's "win at all costs" style. The pinnacle was the last WC with two French squads able to compete at the highest level, and not one French team with the flair of old.
That's part of the reason I started supporting Wales, at least they'd rather lose playing running rugby than win England style. |

Australia celebrated the centenary of their 1908 Olympic gold medal by beating the Barbarians 18-11 at Wembley.
