final holiday session, sonny bill, etc.

final holiday session. think i've covered all that i know of and have experienced as a rugby player. peace of mind. everything else is up to them. sadly they're still not being a team, more of acting like one at the moment. but it's good to know that there's still genuine passion for the game, maybe some of them will make it. i don't know.

right. SONNY BILL WILLIAMS.


the stats speak for themselves:

  • 1.95 m
  • 107 kg
  • 14 tries, 56 pts in 2007 NRL season.

the superhuman, the lebron james of rugby league, now plying his trade in rugby union. it's probably one of the best things to ever happen to rugby union since tana umaga converted from league. a lot of tuqiri (lote tuqiri) doesn't count, cause erm... he's from the criminal element (australia).

and come tomorrow, sonny bill will be playing 13 for the baa baas against an australian squad that would be eager to please in the opening match of their international season. and guess who's the opposite number to sonny bill? it's non other than the evil wizard stirling mortlock. now just watch as sonny bill opens a can of whoop-ass on stirlo's ass. IT WILL BE EPIC.
