What a man

Super from Rhodesy . Briiliant example. Compared to what i have just seen online. Allleged serious offences by pl so called footballers.
 
Took the grandson to a couple of Hurricanes (Wellington) games, not my cup of tea but anyway plenty of Allblacks in the team so big names down here and both sets of players would spend about half an hour post match signing autographs and having photos taken and that’s every game imagine your average premier league peacock doing that 🤔
 
Love the bloke and he's talking about playing for another 2/3 years and if he loves this place so much sign him up, help him with his coaching badges and let's get him as a permanent fixture here. We've lost too many good ones like Rhodes over the years through not having a vision.
 
Before we signed him, I had somehow got a preconception that he was a bit arrogant. Not a bit of it, very clear from day 1 of him being here that he's a top professional and as importantly, a thoroughly good egg. I tend to think good squads who do well, rely almost as much on character as they do on footballing ability. You need a core of leaders and players with the "right stuff".

Lesson to self about prejudging without enough information!
