Superb here from Steve Hansen. At the very highest level with a huge amount on the line he is able to maintain perspective about the game. The ONLY thing that matters in school boy rugby is the character and values the game teaches and developing these has to be the priority
"The nice thing was some of their guys came into our shed, and our coaching group went down to their shed to share a beer"

A truly spectacular game of rugby with some real moments of magic that will inspire so many. For this Head of Rugby & former front rower though the clear highlight was this scrum involving 2019 XV Capt Fin Baxter at LH more than holding his own as 19yr old against a B&I Lion
