COLBON
COLBON Would anyone else agree with me that Colbon's future position must be second row? Hes still young, he's big and strong, speedy for a SR (not fast enough for wing) having gone through the rigours of the SAS course and being one of the very few in his group to complete it he has proved he has the guts and determination to succeed. I hope he is given chances in the future to make this position his own as I feel he could be just as successful as Hock, Hansen etc.

Explain please. Are you saying he is a fully qualified member of the Special Air Service?GGCSENSECT wrote: having gone through the rigours of the SAS course and being one of the very few in his group to complete it he has proved he has the guts and determination to succeed.

The biggest Room is the Room for improvement.
The best form of defence is attack!!
Out of the black and into the red, remember you don't get anything for two in a bed!!

It wasn't the SAS, it was the Parachute Regiment, but yes, definitely agree with you.GGCSENSECT wrote:COLBON Would anyone else agree with me that Colbon's future position must be second row?

James Coyle passed too. We sent him to Oldham.

Re: COLBON
He did the full 16 week course and got his wings at the end of it? Or was it just the tranazeum that he did, the Para's assault course. They're two completely different things.GeoffN wrote:It wasn't the SAS, it was the Parachute Regiment, but yes, definitely agree with you.GGCSENSECT wrote:COLBON Would anyone else agree with me that Colbon's future position must be second row?

Re: COLBON
Fair play to him, many attempt it, few finish it. I was at Aldershot in '97. They've moved air assault brigade to Colchester now though.
How did he end up doing p-company? Had he signed up, or was it just a training thing that they did at the time?

Re: COLBON
James Coyle going to Oldham was his own decision, he got a new job so couldn't keep playing rugby league full time so went to Oldham to play part time.cpwigan wrote:James Coyle passed too. We sent him to Oldham.

I don't think the army training did any of those player any good really, they did a lot of stamina work which is great if you want to be in the army and run across country with a big bag on your bag but I've never seen any player run cross-country to score a try. Mystery of Colbons missing pace solved.
