Silverfern Spotlight : Mojo Print E-mail
Written by Mojo   
Saturday, 07 June 2008

mojoThe 14th member of the forum, Mojo signed up when the Fern still has training wheels, and has been stuck here ever since!  The Fern is still stuck with training wheels, but Mojo has moved on, and now a seasoned veteran in the forum sparring that happens from time to time...

Forum member number 14, joined March 8, 2003.

Describe yourself in 25 words or less:  Early thirties, young family, urban professional. So basically I work in an office in Wellington and have a wife and kids. I like sport, but now only play golf. An armchair fan I guess.

What international rugby team do you support and why?  New Zealand - I am a New Zealander

What Super 14 team do you support and why?  Hurricanes, though an Aucklander by birth I grew up mostly in Wellington and the S12 kicked off while I was at Uni (Victoria)

What's the biggest challenge facing rugby?  Professionalism. NZ is rugby resource rich, but financially poor. The NH is looking to replicate the soccer model in Rugby - I don't think this will work.

Who was the game's greatest ever player?  Michael Jones - he could do it all.

How about non-NZ players? Who were/are the greatest?  John Eales - he could almost do it all.

The best match you have ever seen? 1987 World Cup final

The best try you have ever seen?  Cullen vs Aussie at Carisbrook from a Zinzan pass

What position did you play, if you played, in rugby?  Lock, blindside and centre

What do you like about the Silverfern?  People with various opinions, ages, outlooks that share a passion for rugby and the ability to spend vast amounts of time on line. I like the 'other' forum as well.

How could the site be improved?  Not sure - pretty good I reckon.

Who's your favourite poster?  Some of the old school ones - Hooroo, TR, BSG Phooey etc

Who's the worst poster?  there is a smug aussie and a bigoted jaapie - not sure who is worse.

How could the game of rugby be improved?  Rucking. Stop tinkering. Rugby tours

What rugby player would you turn gay for?  Would never happen.

Non-rugby questions now: Favourite music?  Most music, bit of a Pearl Jam fan

Favourite book?  A Fortunate Life, Viv Richards autobiography and Mark of a Lion - there are plenty.

Favourite Film?  Deer Hunter, Crash, Life is Beautiful - there are plenty.

Biggest lifetime regret?  None really - I guess giving up cricket while at Uni was a mistake - should have kept playing. I came back a weaker player and then was not able to play when I lost my thumb.

Greatest hope?  That my two boys grow up healthy.
