Best memory: Playing Waikato in the last game
of the CANZ series in NZ, opposing scrum half, Kevin Putt was
going to be an All Black trialist and had scored 4 tries in
Waikato’s previous game. All local papers were projecting
how he would dominate this poor Canadian scrum half and how
Waikato would punish the Canadian team. Not only did Canada
almost beat Waikato (entered into the match 0-3) I was voted
player of the game by the television announcers as well as the
host club, Waikato.

Worst memory: ’91 Canadian Championships, playing
with Alberta against BC, who had dominated for years and made
up 95% of the Canadian National team, we lost by 1 point. We
played about as well as our team could have and barely came
up short. There are still certain plays that I run over and
over in my head.
