Let me be the first to say that I have been voted out as President of RugbyWA. I congratulate Francis and wish him all the very best.
It was a privilege representing the Rugby Community of WA. I look forward to sharing a beer with you on the sidelines from time to time.
Cheers peeps and thanks for the time many of you took to engage, ask questions and I do hope I was able to contribute something.
Adios, chow, Auf wiedersehn, goodbye.
Thanks for your efforts Hansie![]()

Ruck Me, Maul Me, Make Me Scrum!
Education is Important, but Rugby is Importanter!
Cheers Hansie, all the best
Great game, Fucken battled right through to the 80!
Given all that has happened in the past 12 months Hansie I'm sure this is a blessing in disguise for you?
Does that mean back to the foreshore or are you looking for a new challenge?

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
Hansie, am devastated to be honest! You have gone to the nth degree & been a true class act in my view for what it’s worth, through all of this shitty interlude in WA rugby. Rugby WA are gonna miss you badly. Look forward to catching up with you at Neddies & Force games!
Thanks Hansie, your efforts have been much appreciated.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Thanks for all your hard work Hansie. I'll defo buy you a beer next time I see you at Neddies
Thanks Hansie, now you can say what you really want 😁😁😁
As all above. Thanks and good luck. I look forward to catching up at sometime.
May the FORCE be with you!
Thanks, Hansie. You stepped up to do a tough job at a tough time and contributed a helluva lot.
All the best and refresh the batteries. I'm sure you're still got plenty of involvement left in our game.
Thanks for your work, Hansie. Hope you stay around here, as you'll now be a 'wise old head' (or 'bitter and twisted ex-president', depending on whether I agree with you) but you've steered the ship during difficult times when the majority of us wouldn't have wanted our head above the parapet.
Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
I was thinking that exactly. No need to bite your tongue when answering some of the negative posts in a logical and polite manner.
I have only met you once and we talked on the phone twice, but I have always been impressed with your dedication to rugby in WA.
Hope you stay on TWF.
Sorry to hear that Hansie but do hope to still read your wise words on TWF.. 😊
Hansie, thank you very much for the work you have done while on the RugbyWA board
