Ah yes, I knew this would come up. 'Laksanasongpong' is the spelling I found from researching the actual guy - which was my original idea for the story, to track him down and see what he's up to nowadays.

"kicking in general play is almost always pointless"?
If you mastered the chip kick it was almost undefendable against other players. Helped me take Scotland to the world cup in a mate's tourney.

Just stumbled across this. Good read, waves of nostalgia... Amazing that 25 years can pass and this game is still comfortably regarded as the best in its genre.

It was so good - can’t believe it didn’t spawn any follow ups - the one and only rugby game of our time

Called it. I've never played Jonah but worshipped 08. Gotta say Rugby 22 is worth a crack though, they really nailed the feeling of sucking in defenders with quick ruck ball then exploiting the gaps out wide

I saw the headline on the spin-off and thought, Jamie Wall would be interested in this and then I saw the Author.
