Greetings from Thailand....

where wifey and myself are having some RR on the island of Phuket. I note we have a new addition to the forum in the Ozzie, Claydog. Welcome....but do grow a thickskin, I sus some heavy banter. As expected HM has come in for heavy critisism from the board world authorities, i'll reserve my judgement till after the RWC. To his credit HM has like all good coaches recognized the need for experience and is to be commended for blending it with youth. Jake knew it, HM knows it, experience is a necessity.We need to be ready for the WC, this year will determine whether we are,and added bonus would be to see the younger players step up to the plate. Go Bokke!

Enjoy Denny. When we went to Thailand we went to Chang Mai & did the elephant training thingy. A lot of fun living in a village with the elephants, bathing them every morning & training them for a circus act that we took part in.
PS keep an eye open for Cloudy 

 Enjoy your Hols Denny , should be cheap what with the coup and all .

Greetings Denny, trust you will have great time in Tailand especially that Tai food!
As to experience well its usefull but there are limits.
We will be watching to see how this all works out especially come RC time. That is when the rubber will hit the road. In my view we are wasting time in blooding up and coming players in the June matches. Scotland and Wales will not be at full strength. However I guess one musn't prejudge the issue as we dont know who will be playing against Wales and Scotland. 
Squad selected had some blunders and some quotas.

It was a bit strange not getting a news feed.....that's been put to rest now as life returns to normal, mind you I was about to join the protests LOLThis is our third visit, I can't help but love the people and the disorganized chaos!

 

 

Say Moz, I've tried Sea Bass grilled, curried etc very, very nice in between a nice cocktail on the beach.

 5 doller cheap cheap love.

 Ah den...but have you tried the seabass at Gordon Ramsey....wink, wink. Watch out for tidal waves.
