Oh! though this should not be taken as an insinuation that he, y'know, "plays for Canterbury".
-
The "not the face! not the face!" guy. Whatever his name is.
Giovanni is full of Win. I say we just call him 'the not the face guy' from now on.
Megan knows who we mean.
-
Tony Woodcock?
Actual spit-take here. Then I tried to picture his underwear ad.
can't be tony woodcock if 'he got caught in a ruck; not his place' is meant to mean that Robert is a back. and if 'not the most famous man on the team' translates onto whoever it's based on then it's not dan carter either.
All of this is correct.
-
Purely out of interest, did you write this before or after hearing about this?
Wow. Before.
"Alan's images are fantastic and they really capture the essence of what we do every day," Borthwick said.
Erm...
-
And Robert isn't based on a certain Richie is he?
Heh, unlike 'Megan', Robert was based on a person, a current AB. During the rewrites, I worked on making it less obvious who it was. Mark is totally Richie McCaw, but.
-
Am I the only one who suspects that Emma enjoyed writing this ... a little more than she should have?
I'm fairly sure she's still feeling a little flushed and weak at the knees over it ;-)
Oh stop it. What I did, pretty much, was drink merlot and hunch over my keyboard giggling to myself.
I had originally tried to do this seriously. It lasted a sentence and a half. A friend has asked for a cricket version, which in my head made it about a paragraph before turning into some kind of BDSM-opalooza. You should probably be grateful that won't see the light of day.
-
Would that opening sentence be a Dan Brown tribute?
Oh, well spotted.
This Megan character isn't based on someone (or some Megan) in real life is it?
Sheer fear prevents me from answering this question in the manner I'd like.
-
You mean all the Canterbury team are gay?
As gay as President Lincoln.
You sure it wasnt Deep Heat?
OW.

But I am a scenery slut, so I'll forgive a few annoying things just to see that view of Piha as you come around the corner at the top of the cliff...
Hey babe, wanna come up and see my surf break?
In moving on, Stephen has only Irish Catholic imagery with which to express his new-found freedom
This is one of those thoughts that's going to hang round and bug me all day, I can tell. Thanks.

In the meantime, I think we should organise a great blend with Jackie and see if her "look" is stronger than Lucia's. A veritable clash of the titans!
We give little girls with strong personalities to my strong-personalitied 11 year old daughter. Either they sort each other out or form an unholy alliance, and it's interesting to watch either way.
