I need to find rugby books on Kindle now after I got rid of all my books and magazines this week - was a bit dusty as I was clearing them all out.

I'm still trying to find Tana's on kindle but it's hardcover only on Amazon.

I'd prefer to get rid of almost all my physical books, but the wife wants a library like this I'm guessing.

I'm guessing because I don't want to have a conversation about it. That would provide the wrong signals.

I'm with your wife, I didn't want to get rid of my books, but did the sums on my storage locker one day and realised it had cost me a decent few weeks in Europe or few months in Asia holidaying. Very depressing.

My brother was one of the oil traders that Taine worked with in London. He'd been in the industry for years and both being Kiwi's they used to knock around a bit. Taine stayed at my brothers place here a couple of times and it was clear that his time in London had been very - social. He had very very heavy bones.

He reckoned fitness wise strapping the boots back on. Saw him a couple of months ago in Koru at Napier and he looked pretty much back to his playing condition.

I know there are dissenting opinions but I think he was one of the more wasted talents of the professional era.

Interesting comments on Mitchell and Deans too. Not a fan of them as coaches or people.

That's not saying a hell of a lot. He was pretty poor in all the ABs strength testing back in the day apparently.

@mn5 probably couldn't even play on a kids jungle gym.

No chance. Only genuine #athletes can do that.

Croczilla: The Wyatt Crockett Story, by Scotty Stevenson

There's an extract is in Stuff, seems OK - Scotty is an OK writer
