    What a great article a tribute by one great man to another.

    Thanks John for a great article and thanks Nathan on being just who you are.

    Sharpe's legacy one of technique and influence

    Without a doubt. You can't get much higher praise in rugby in Australia than that!

    Nobody puts it perfectly.

    ...there must be a line in it about Sharpie and sax, but I can't quite put my finger on it yet

    Matfield, Thorn - both have the common bond of rugby warrior with Sharpie.

    He is in the same echelon of excellence.

    On the topic of WA produced Wallabies, Adam Wallace Harrison came agonisingly close to being number two.

    I'd love to see it, but I don't fancy his chances. Maybe we'll see him against Scotland. Robbie Deans is a bit too pigheaded and he will likely pick Ma'afu, Slipper or Alexander first at 3 and Robinson, Kepu or Pek Cowan first at 1. I suppose on the bright side at least we have a few options at prop that we didn't have in the past.
