…watching the Woman’s 7s from CT, the commentators were talking about some NZ chick who grew up in a dorp called Palmerston. And get this, this woman can shear a sheep in less than a minutes. I bet none of you chaps could pull that off, nor could any of you Sheilas.
She apparently gave up the sport of competitive sheep shearing because it was too hard on the body and took up rugby. I don’t know any sheep shearers to confirm this claim. But I’m sure some of our NZ pals can shed light on this apparently demanding sport.
