to be sure to be sure (RFC's first Irishman)

Frank had a couple of little anecdotes about him.

Frank said he was chatting to him over the phone after he got back to Australia, and telling him about the game of AFL, and about RFC. He said I'd like to send you a DVD about the club can I have the address. After a couple of times asking him to repeat himself, Frank asked him how to spell his suburb.

"You know, Crawford, like Shane the brownlow medallist".

I also asked him how we were going to make sure that we got the best out of these types of kids. He said we now had the support staff to work with the kids when they came in, previously Frank would have to do al the running around himself. When he was to arrive in Australia, Frank had given specific instructions to the Assistants that he's to work on nothing else but skills in his time here.

The second time Frank spoke to him, he said that James had just finished watching the boys sing the club song after a win on youtube, and was practicing the words.
