Spotting rugby players
 
Thought I'd start a new thread, just because I think it will be a fun thing to do .......
Just taken my son for his swimming lesson in the AC Baths,Taupo and there was the whole of the Welsh Rugby team in there too. Jeez, when those guys jumped in there was a tsunami !!!!! Wonder why none of the mums were watching their kids having their lessons !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbup:

Took my son to watch the welsh team train on Tuesday after school. He managed to get a few autographs and had his photo with Ryan Jones. My friend was in Burgerfuel yesterday and they were all in there. Think its great that they are mixing in with the community and taking rugby around NZ.

Another friend lives in Takapuna, Auckland and has seen some of the French team around the town.

Think its just fab for the kids :)

No offence to any rugby players, but ............... they're not known for their good looks and Mike Tindall was certainly at the back of the 'good luck queue'.
Whether its true or not, he will certainly be on pretty dodgy ground when he gets back to the uk :eek:
