What amazes me is that he still lives in Leamington. I guess having his girls (I think he has two?) go to Warwick School (damned expensive) might be why.

His son was always kicking at the sticks after games had ended, from about 3 years old, and he was doing better than many adults.  Chip off the old block.  In those days I looked forward to seeing Gopps Jnr  playing for Wasps. Ah well.  But good luck to them all.
