    Anyone notice that his commitment to the Force is aligned with Matt Giteau i.e. 1 year

    does James have a younger brother, there is a Ben O'connor selected in the QLD Schools XV this week..

    then again, i suppose O'Connor isnt exactly a rare name.

    I know he has a little brother who is also very good but i'm not sure what his name is. It might be Ben.

    actually just had a look at the team list and i doubt it is him, Ben O'Connor is from my old school in Brisbane SLC, and James is apparently from the Gold Coast so i doubt they are brothers.

    James went to Nudgee...can't see them going to different schools if they are brothers.
