This year would have been the same situation so he decided to not even sign up. Close to last minute though it looked like he would be able to make it. Rather than mess with appoinments that had already been worked out, he decided he'd play instead. Mmmm wife was not too happy with this as at the moment its just for fun, the odd game here and there, and we've had enough injuries just on the fun level ! This was going to be an entire weekend !
And then came an email looking for applicants to serve as IRB Anti-Doping Chaperones. Andre was accepted and so a compromise was reached. Andre'd play the first day and then be a chaperone for the remainder of the weekend.
So off he went.... Dubai is a fabulous venue for the tournament, so much going on. He had a wonderful weekend. The chaperoning was very interesting....Collect your player from the field, and stay with them until they give their sample. They can warm-down, they can even take a shower. Sadly though they MUST be watched at all times - just in case they "lose" some sample hehehe So guess who got to see a player or two in the shower !? What fun ..........

Looks like he got to see some fairly decent talent too, and I presume no injuries which is always good.
Are all the people waving 'cos Andre scored ?
Thankfully no injuries and he did meet/chaperone/watch shower some decent names hehehe
This is field one, for international teams, the club rugby is all played on the outer fields.
Just remembered, NZ won the Dubai 7's this year, maybe Ethan can play for them hehehehe
