Sid Judd my teacher at Windsor Clive School, Cardiff, scores a try against the All Blacks, it was Sid who got me playing rugby. He also scored a try for Wales the following week to beat the All Blacks twice in a week. Great man.

Just finished reading this amazing book. Brutally honest, enthralling, poignant and emotional. A remarkable insight into the life and mindset of a great Welsh sportsman - warts and all. Highly recommended 👍 Well done to Bish and @gallagherbren58 🏉
