Open side flanker along with the position of chief moaner apparently! In which I am proud

1st team

I think it was about 14-15 with the lads from The International School and Community College East Birmingham

What do you like to do outside of rugby?
Spending time with bec, family and friends and occasionally going to the gym – but that doesn’t really happen very often if you didn’t notice. I also enjoy buying the lads a drink on a sat cause there all tight bastards! ;-) [;-)]

Favourite Drink?
I am a big fan of council pop but failing that a nice Jack Daniels and coke on special occasions – or even a lager! (if the budget allows)
