Mine was Murray Mexted. Eventually met him too :D

Actually I was a little spoilt, as there were 4 Wellington lads starring for the All Blacks at the time - the others being Stu Wilson, Bernie Fraser and Allan Hewson. I guess that's one of the reasons I got so interested in rugby, despite not having played it before high school.

Graham Dawe and Jerry Guscott.
Met the latter, wish I hadn't

Plum or two in the mouth, no doubt?

Dan Baugh.

Modelled my game on his. Quite funny watching opposition fly half start throwing 3 or 4 intercepted passes after the first 4 tackles

Jerry Guscott is no toff. Bit of a nob, but definitely not a public schoolboy.

But you know those English backs always sound like Teddy Meldrum in the after-match interviews :lol:
