I was lucky enough to be taught by Gerald and he was very supportive to me when I needed it.

The only lesson I ever learned from Gerald Davies was extremely painful and occurred several times during a Colts vs Masters rugby match... Don't try to tackle the Ringer!! :lol:

[Edit: and at 74 he looks as though he could still play!]
