[pale ʻia ka leka uila]
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- In 1982 he moved to the United States after spending a “year on a sailboat”, settling in Southern California and playing occasionally for Belmont Shore before hanging up his boots as “my body was getting too beaten up by the ex-American Footballers who tackled with their heads as spears.
- Well, after enjoying a few seasons at Bishop Auckland, he moved up to Newcastle and became a First XV player at Newcastle Gosforth RFC, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Steve Gustard – making a scoring debut for Gosforth against Percy Park RFC.
- He mea kupanaha ka leka uila a me ka pāpili kaiaulu - (ʻoiai he mea maʻamau ka ʻeha ma ka ʻaoʻao hope) - ua hōʻoia i kona waiwai i kēia pule i ka wā i hele mai ai ʻo 1st XV hope laina mua Peter Lowes iaʻu (SC) ma ka leka uila - ua loaʻa i kaʻu mau kikoʻī ma ka pilikanaka media.
