Hes not only a very good rugby player, in my opinion one of the best in the business, but hes also a really good guy.Hes shown a real willingness to want to come here and engage with the community and be part of the Sea of Blue, and I think thats exactly the sort of person that we want as part of our group.You havent played 140 games of Super Rugby and 68 test matches unless youre pretty special. So its great to have him as a part of the Western Force and is another very good acquisition for us. Were pleased to have attracted another high-profile player to our part of the world.

FORT WORTH, Texas -- Jamie Dixon didnt even notice that he wasnt introduced before his coaching debut at his alma mater, TCU.He was a little caught up in the fun, weird, strange, different, as he called it in coming back to the school he helped lead as a player to its most recent NCAA Tournament win almost 30 years ago.And before an 82-64 win over the NAIAs St. Thomas on Friday night, Dixon was coming to grips with the fact that he really had left Pittsburgh , where he was head coach the past 13 seasons and on the staff for 17.Seventeen years is a long time, and you only have one way, Dixon said.

No welcome home?Maybe thats a tradition here, Dixon said as he chuckled. You guys are laughing. Maybe thats a tradition here. They dont introduce the coach. I dont know.
