The story is about a back so I don't think there will be much focus on the scrum (somebody asked earlier). Ive been hearing about it for a while as when we went and stayed with Larry in Christmas 05 they were just starting to get things rolling. At that time it was supposed to be a really really low budget film but since then things have been pumped up a bit.
3 of my brothers went to Highland and a couple of them actually played with the guy that the story is about, I'm pretty sure that his name is Patrick. I was also supposed to go as my dad organizes for players from here in NZ to go over for an experience in the states but I decided that I didn't want to play rugby in my last year of high school and instead played golf so didn't end up going...what a dummy I was. My dad is pretty tight with Larry Gelwix and we will probably have him stay here when Highland tours here in July. It will be interesting to see how they go, they should be pretty good as they have 3 ex Church College of NZ boys (most players have come from here as my dad taught there for years) there at the moment. One was was expected to be a certainty for the NZ secondary schools last year but ended up breaking his collar bone and another was being asked about by Gordon Tiejtens.
Cant wait to see the movie, hopefully Larry may bring a copy with him. [/b]
