Mnie learned from Jack gibson. Gibson was the master coach and he asked a young U23's coach if he could use his set plays with the first team. The young coach was Monie.
Madge is cut from the same cloth. We are so lucky that IL saw sense and appointed Madge.
Not just Madge, I suspect - Rads made a similar point in his book, and I can see an awful lot of Rads and Waney in this team "ethos" (podcast word of the month).
On that same move, how fast is Lockers? Didn't know he could sprint that quick!
Stevo was wrong BTW on TV. He was talking about the old rules I.E scrums. I think it was changed 2 seasons ago. Says more about him than anything else.

Think I was still a wee bit drunk on the euphoria of the day. :craz:
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan
