Great to hear that about Willie..

I was inferring to his well publicised indiscretions down under.

I met Big Willie, he is a really nice bloke who has plenty of time for the fans....You do not realise how big he is, he really is a man mountain.

no who is he

You know the bloke surely bald bloke hardly breaks a tackle and gives away penalties under the sticks to settle local derby's.

He played for Australia ten years ago.

and "retired" about four years back

I'm a bit surprised at this tbh , I never knew Yeaman was epileptic and the last encounter I had with anyone with this condition who played rugby was a long time ago when I played . He never said he was epileptic and only two games in to the season , He coped a big hit what brought on a fit . That was it playing wise as he was told never to play again .

There are loads of differing forms, severities and triggers for epilepsy though.

Which are often well controlled with medication...no reason for people not to play sport in this day and age.

I remember Kirk having a fit during an academy game at the Boulevard. Vividly remember seeing him stood recovering in the doorway of the portacabin (or club shop!!) at the start of the Best Stand.

Never seen it mentioned since....fair play to Kirk for coping with it.

Hope he recovers, he's been our stand out player in my opinion!!

Think he's refering to the guy who got diagnosed with Cancer, beat it and returned the game, quite inspirational to anyone who finds themselves in the situation. Still mock if you will..

I never knew that, credit to him for that
