Over a quiet couple of beers I recently interviewed long time BR Manager TheZec, and he are his answers to my questions.....enjoy. Q1 ) Name , Age and where are you located ? The Zec, 20, England Q2 ) How long have you been playing BR ? Too long, I'm a dinosaur mid-season 1 IIRC Q3 ) Did you or do you still play Rugby in RL and what position? I
went to private school (hence my current nickname of "posh-boy" amongst
all my northern colleagues). So I've been playing rugby prettymuch
since I was 7. I had knee surgery at 16 though which put me out for a
few seasons. Back to it this year though .
I had been playing 2nd row before, but honestly have no idea where I'm
going to slot in now, since I'm playing in a merit league. Q4 ) What local or International Rugby team do you support ? GLAAASSSTTTERRR!!! Nothing quite beats watching a Gloucester win from The Shed. Natal
Sharks too - played in their stadium *brushes dirt from shoulder*. It
was a curtain-raiser for Sharks-Crusaders in the last season of Super 12
IIRC Sharks won something like 36-34. Stunning game. I caught our
own kick off at the start of our game - probably the best moment of my
life to-date Q5 ) Which is your favourite day, and why in BR ?Tuesday - I love watching my U20 Flyhalf prodigy grow! I would like to say Thursday too but Junior training depresses me, as any frequent clubroom users will know Q6 ) What have been some of your highs and lows of your BR career ? Lows- probably Crashing out of the cup in round 1, season 11 when I cockily played against a slightly worse team on normal. Highs- Starting the WCC Ball rolling, Getting made a forum mod, releasing Squeeze Ball - the BR England magazine Q7 ) What is your personal goals for BR , what do u want to achieve like maybe NT manager ? Actually being a good journalist? And to develop a very good long term system that can see me get better, then stay that good. Oh, and make Randolph Hambleton the best flyhalf ever. Q8 ) Name one manager that inspires u or who you really admire and why ? Probably Pantherus, he's a reassuring presence in the clubrooms and never fails to see both sides of a debate (or an argument ) Q9 ) Name one thing that you would like to change on BR ? Q10 ) Your Goal for this season ? I've got a list as long as my arm. But it all boils down to winning matches. Q11 ) What is your best advise or tip, to young newbie Manager Don't eat the green wobbly bit! |
