Brad Shields Unsung Hero

[TheTameWasp]

Brad Shields needs a special medal and award for this seasons efforts.

[Bloke in North Dorset]

I wouldn't describe him as unsung, especially amongst Wasps fans. There's hardly a write up in the national media that doesn't sing his praises as well.

I agree he needs a special award, though.

 An absolute Warrior without whom we would have sunk long ago.  An incredible man, in the LBND leadership mould.

Special medal - yes
Unsung - absolutely not.

Brad has been incredible for us and I'm sure every Wasps fan things the same. I hope Wasps reward him with a nice long contract.

Martin Luther:

Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott,
ein gute Wehr und Waffen.
Er hilft uns frei aus aller Not,
die uns jetzt hat betroffen.
Der alt böse Feind
mit Ernst er’s jetzt meint,
groß Macht und viel List
sein grausam Rüstung ist,
auf Erd ist nicht seins gleichen.

Perhaps amend the God reference and you can get:

A mighty fortress is our Brad,
a trusty Shield and weapon;
he helps us free from ev'ry need
that has us now o'ertaken.
The old evil foe
now means deadly woe;
deep guile and great might
are Quins dread arms in fight;
on earth are not their equal.

And all to a great tune by JS Bach.

Sorry, just couldn't get the tune and lyric out of my head!

How very neat and apt Backdoc.  How clever!

Noticed his “hard spritzer” on sale in The Anecdote as well. Well his and Josh’s.

I had a few cans delivered - a surprisingly high alcohol content.
