· Your first season for Billingham….. an indifferent ending. Hows it gone for you?

Couldn’t of asked for a better start with the 13 games we won. The best season of playing rugby so far. Weird way to end it but bring on pre season.

· How have you settled in?

Settled in really well, felt like part of the team from the start.

· Who have been the biggest influences since you have been here?

Luke Wilson and Pete have definately had a huge impact on my first season at the club. Always making me push myself and always wanting more for the team and the club in general.

· Is there any noticeable differences from previous clubs to Billingham?

The facilities at the club are a change from previous clubs and parmo Thursdays are always a winner!

· How have you found the standard in this league?

I have found the standard a lot better obviously coming up 2 leagues. It’s a higher pace game, more physical and with all teams being near enough the same standard you never know which way the game is going to go.

· How you getting on without rugby?

Missing the routine of training Tuesday/Thursday, game day Saturdays and hungover Sundays.

· What are you doing to keep fit?

Been getting the miles in going out on my road bike and doing the circuits Jacko has set.

· Have you any goals for the upcoming season?

To push higher than where we finished this season and to keep my fitness ticking over. Definately a few less grass burners from me ?
