Your correct it was Cowie. His RU days were not quite as entertaining.

Same here, although i think the entire book would have taken no more than a couple of hours to read given the huge letters and vast spacings. If ever a book could have been a great biography that was it, instead it was an attempt rushed out with very little thought aimed at cashing in on the 2005 world cup while the "nation" was still on a "high".

Played this match, played that match.
Had a bet on this match, didnt have a bet on that match

| It seems pointless him doing a book whilst his career is still going. Would be an interesting read though.

I thought it was an autobiography, not a work of fiction.

| I wonder if Longy will be as honest about his off the pitch antics as his book title suggests?
I doubt it.

He'dbe a fool too whilst he is still playing, long after his career and after any coaching he may do, then maybe.
As for a role model, yeah he does act the clown and is prone to monumental brain farts off the pitch but alot of the good work he does goes unnoticed. He does a lot in the junior levels and around the schools rugby.

Therefore it would be pointless buying a book that will be heavily held back of any real truth and real stories.
