Mine was Murray Mexted. Eventually met him too
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.

Jerry Guscott is no toff. Bit of a nob, but definitely not a public schoolboy.rowan wrote:Plum or two in the mouth, no doubt?Which Tyler wrote:Graham Dawe and Jerry Guscott.
