Karl Gale, current 2nd XV Player of the Season!

Name:
Karl Gale
Nickname:
Bogzy
Position in Club:
Playing Member
Position(s):
Wing/Outside Centre
Favourite Food:
Mexican
Favourite Film:
Anything with loads of explosions, fights, car chases, and next to zero story line. The kind of film you can take your brain out to watch and allow the visual spectacle to unfold in front of you.
Favourite Band/Solo Artist:
AC/DC
Role Model:
My mum (God rest her soul)
Best rugby moment:
Returning to rugby at Prenton after 10 years not playing to suit up with my family (actual family and now extended rugby family), and shortly thereafter being in the right place at the right time (by complete accident) to have Elky set me up for a 40m sprint to score my first try for Prenton. A very close second would be being awarded 2nd Team Player Of The Year!
Best place you've played rugby:
The grounds at my old school weren't too shabby just kidding. Prenton, obviously.
Best player you've ever played rugby with/against:
A lad I went to school with. 6 foot 8, 23 stone, 2% body fat. The ball got passed to him a lot. I think he went on to play for North of England.
Life Ambition:
Sorting out the mess that is the national curriculum to improve education for students and staff across the country.
Club Ambition:
Continue to meet excellent people, and play until my body gives up. A few more tries wouldn't go amiss either!
Time to down a pint:
If it's my first one, probably about 20 seconds. If it's my 15th one, then either 0.3s as most of it hits the floor, or several hours as I've passed out next to it.
Worst Fashion Sense:
I still have no idea what "colour clashing" means, so you'll regularly see me in clothes that really don't go together.
