so there are massages, things will focus on pre-

season

, there were five things, the first is to enjoy some sports, we are here to have a good time, we will train hard and all that kind of stuff. Joyce has enough fun with each other next time. What we make sure we have absolute quality about how we test the standards part that we train, as I said last year, will continue to be, they have a non-negotiable jacket Aero paper cotton film dollar honey miru chair anchor Aero paper cotton film paper relax grunts here three seconds up, yeah, okay, I'll do you practically, don't do one, but talk about 250 each.

Gosh, I could have just had a part time, it'll be 50 points when Richmond Park, of course, is obviously a very

close

area. to the steep and it's nice to be able to come to a place like this in all honesty, you don't really feel like you're in London and your dad is running around, he's a huge, huge, space, grief dog, that's how relaxed and I think that It's the most important thing and even some of us at Quinn's have a little dog club from time to time and we bring our dogs and unfortunately not many of them are bigger than cats so I think a lot of people have a little They laugh a little when they see that I feel like me and we will do Collier and we will play why and without walking with our dogs it stinks he laughs at pizza on him, he has been quite well behaved for seven years again, as you see, he doesn't like to go. too far from me he's quite likes people about him a lot of people about him always always serious and yeah, I thought you'd like something big like a Rottweiler.

I don't really like him, he's not easy, he's got a bit of a fight in him, a small dog. Syndrome I say it for being left out of the team and you can say that you got injured at the wrong time whatever it is and but in order not to depress you of course with what happened in the last World Cup, I hoped to have another opportunity. on earth another unfortunate chance of not being Ciara it's difficult but you can't again you have the attack you have, people might say and I think being on television the situation is difficult, it's difficult to realize it in yourself and you almost have to watch Lo positive and what you've done and what we've done in England and how many more opportunities you get to play for your country than other people and it's hard to look at it like that and almost celebrate the things you've done.

What you're going to miss, I think for me last

season

I gave everything I played with my best shot and I left it out now I kind of cut my caffeine recovering more

training

and that's why I can improve moving forward, I think if not I would have done that and been doing dinners or events or whatever, skipping

training

sessions, so I think it would have been harder to fake it, but knowing the fact that I gave it my all, I let it. everything that is there in a field, so to speak, I give my best and I can accept everything that I can accept, I can accept that bonus, so it depends on a person in our opinion and then the selection, whether in his club or in your country.

It's subjective and then if you fit into that puzzle. I'm a family scenario unfortunately I didn't fit a puzzle and that's okay. I won't hold any grudges against you. I've been very lucky with an English shirt. For the finish and the opportunities I've had and for being able to achieve it, and now, yes, coming back here at a club, I want to take advantage of it and I hope we can do something special this year, four young men with someone who is not great, already you've seen. the opposition did not stand firm defenders of weakness in them holland hopeful saying moldings do that it can be easy for you if someone was giving me bad information the field to retire go and tell them the right way guys we have to feel comfortable giving feedback teacher to help us grow so that we grow based on work now to make sure that when we come back in knots more on Thursday Friday we pick up a night, but my point of view today, the intensity, I can't complain.

I Hanlon was not. good enough okay so we're making some plans now or sure skills or whatever make sure you get on with it and finish so that when we get to the end of the week the accuracy is top notch now I how you serve . We're doing everything this morning to finish, so when we get to the sprints for you I just want to think about trying to move your legs faster and what that will do is naturally bring you a little bit of peace of mind, that makes sense, that's good. Because I was like because he obviously has high standards coming from international rugby, so he brought his standards to Harlequin Witches.

I think when he came last year it was a big shock for everyone, the guys who have been here before know what his standard is. to like and so that everyone knows where the position is and I think he expects because he has high standards, in fact, it shows, he expects everyone to have those high standards as well. Long has been incredible for sure, he has been a good addition to the coaching staff. With these introspective thoughts, my wife's wife, the daughters, I am going to be six months old and on Wednesday she will grow a lot, she is getting very skinny because of the violence, so she is very active, she is on fire, she loves the Jolly Jumper that hangs from a door, oh yeah. she squirted too fast for four miles to be honest his wife loves that he is a full time mom at home she loves it so no Andrew although I love being a dad it's a different perspective when You get home from coach too and recognize where the real work happens.

Honestly, York wins. Now we want to try to make sure we integrate properly and get to know each other more so that for the next hour in two weeks, every day, two or three guys have a little bit. about themselves the best castle in Sussex is limpet don't relax I blow my whistle that's why I got it guys I know my voice is low well don't land me great line mate look better. Oh, break my height. forward on Sunday, Sunday or Monday, yes, whether you religiously watch three Premiership highlights, strangers, look, it was free, not religiously, sorry.

It usually breaks my heart to see how much you wanted things and I was frustrated that you didn't. it wasn't just coming to fruition and it does, it's a bit like pinching myself, that finally happened to him and I'm really excited for you to prove yourself this year and get the jerseys and yeah, this is really exciting. time and I like it, we believe it like you know there have been times when you know they go twice, the new players and the new wives meet each other and they have a moment where it's all around the entrance, although it's a moment pinch This is what we're driving, you know, yeah, we're going to the entrance to tell me no, all the other players and all the other wives, you know, yeah, well this is kind of happening and yeah, I don't think it has sense to try to do it. come back or act like it's a normal thing because for us it's not a normal thing and you know I've wanted him for so long that I've been carrying breakups with me over it and now he's finally here, yeah, just you know. maybe I'm boring, some people tell you how much I'm enjoying it, but I really am.

I'm very lucky to have someone I compete with because yes, she's been brilliant and there are times when I get a little down on rugby. Be honest, especially before this, like I was getting a little bit disappointed it wasn't going to happen, and even towards the end of last season or before I signed it, I wasn't sure it was going to happen and then you know funny things. They come when you don't expect them, yes, but as you know, even like I said, it took a long time to get to be able to move to the South West when I moved to Cornish Pirates and then we finally made it and a year.

Later, I'm sorry, honey, we're leaving again, we'll come back up and tell you that you're fine with that because you know you complain about never mowing the lawn and you just get on with it and Oscar's been fine with that too. . You do very well, as well as making yourself and obviously everyone else proud, I think the memory of mum because if I was unlucky that my mother passed away at the beginning of last season, we were very lucky that I was in Cornwall and when she got sick, but yeah, like we always said along the way that I was playing pretty well in my second year at Pirates, you kept saying you know she's looking out for you and yeah, like maybe she was, maybe I am, I'm sure. she, if she could see me now, she would be more than proud, she would be delighted and yes, I just have the idea of ​​putting on the shirt and making her prouder, yes, since some of that is really important and yes, I just wish, I wish you.

I could see it because she would be delighted and beyond if she could see it. I'm sure she's looking at the dream team. She has a hard time keeping these alligators down. They give me two cuts.
