Visit by John Timu

John Timu came and talked to Pod 4 last Thursday about being an All Black.  He first became an All Black at the age of 20 when he replaced John Kirwan while they were on tour.  John played 50 matches for the All Blacks, 25 of these were test matches.  He played for the All Blacks for 5 years and then changed codes,  playing Rugby League for New Zealand.  John brought in a French, South African, Australian and All Black jersey, and a hat that all players are given when they first become an All Black.  He told us a couple of funny stories, one how he had his shorts pulled down as he was going over the line for a try.
Thank you for coming in John - we really enjoyed listening to you and learnt a lot.
