    Think we may have to start a new forum "Jehna's Book Corner"

    There are that many new books out there at the moment - it wouldn't be a bad idea if she did a review of all of them - especially with Xmas coming - there's the Ella book as well

    I think that's unfair on the poor lass. Too time consuming for someone with uni studies to be done. But it's a good idea none the less.

    So Jehna, I'm volunteering. Just send me any books about Rugby, League, Horse Racing,........... in fact anything bar synchronised swimming and I'll get a report to you.

    I've just finished O'Neils book....interesting read to get to understand the politics behind Aus Rugby....

    But it does back up some of the comments I heard from the back of the courtesy cars during RWC03....he had certaainly upset a lot of the IRB delegates..

    It drawls to a slow end as he boosts his own ego....

    3/5
