    The difference between amateur and professional sport

    It was inevitable that a lot of the player physiques would change over the first couple of years as they stepped up to the professional game, and there was even a thread somewhere comparing first and second year player profile photos. But from the looks of THIS, AJ in particular made some BIG changes even prior to arriving!

    I suppose if pies can put in such a difference that would explain Grumbles curious fascination with Tahman....former female golfer=Grumbles?

    I suspect this may provide the Tahs front row another reason to be worried on Saturday night.

    Having met him - there's not many who would say that to his face - I always found him to be the prefect gentleman.

    Definitely one that the Force should be proud of - I know most of us here are - and are really looking forward to Chookie, Mosses and all eating their words when they see the match up of our as yet uncapped and unrecognised Front Row - certainly a contest worth viewing.

    I'm sure he'd have a chuckle if he'd seen the picture.

    Well, I suppose if you're going to get a picture wrong, you should make the effort to get it really, really wrong.

    Good find Andy. You have too much time on your hands.

    PS. It's Karrie Webb innit?
