An anaesthetist I worked with, retired just before covid, told me he was at Med School with JPR. I asked him if he'd played rugby with JPR. He replied "...well, you definitely didn't want to play against him...".

So sad to hear that JPR Williams has passed away, what a brilliant and fearless rugby player. Of the men who created that famous try, we have lost Phil Bennett, JPR Williams, John Pullin, and John Dawes. Rest in peace gentleman.

@@pauldurkee4764 Aye...I also acknowledge the late great David Duckham. It was David and Phil Bennett who got me into sidesteps when I was just a wee nipper. Both demonstrated sidestepping mastery during that game. Barry John was just before my time. As someone once commented "he could swerve past you in a phone box". It looked to be all in the hips. I recently saw his try v England in 1969 from behind the line. A total work of art.

One of the all time greats and an even better person. I played a lot of tennis with him and actually lost to him 7-5 6-4 in the greatest match I ever played in. It took 3 hours to play those two sets, and no matter what I threw at him the ball just kept coming back. I am pretty sure he could have been a really good professional tennis player. Maybe not the best in the world, but certainly a great player.

@portcullis5622 Жыл бұрын
@@andyconway3396 Oh I see. Raising millions for charity makes a famous person immune to criticism and piss taking then. That is one of the main reasons that Jimmy Savile went unchallenged. Friends in high places and raised millions for charity, so he was untouchable. Botham was a great cricketer (though not quite so good against the great West Indian side), but a bit of a bully. Fits well with his Tory view of the world. As he still works in the media, appears in adverts and sits in the House of Lords, that makes him fair game for a bit of criticism and piss-taking. Just saying that knighthoods, peerages and raising money for charity should not give people immunity from criticism.
@andyconway5638 Жыл бұрын
@@portcullis5622 I guess if you do have some Saville-esc dirt to dish on Mr Botham, you should share it with the police, if that is what you are implying. I suspect that there were people in the know about Saville who said nothing and that allowed things to get where they got to. You are right, raising money for good does not make you immune from criticism, but criticism always looks better if there is a real reason to criticise, not just because you are in the House of Lords, and busy on TV. Criticise the things people do or say rather than who they are.

@@andyconway5638 Well, he also supported Brexit, so that's a good reason for criticising him. I expect he's got so big because his buddy Boris Johnson got him a cushy little sinecure as some kind of trade ambassador to Australia - which basically means drinking himself to death on a lot of Aussie vintages. I was shocked to see him, he's only in his late sixties but he could be a decade older.
