Dear Lyn McConnell, this isn't a comment though I do - thanks to my husband watch a lot of rugby - but I wanted to pass on to you the following: I heard your interview with Jesse Mulligan - very enjoyable and liked to hear your comment on Brushy Mitchell. Brushy played with my Dad, Trevor Berghan, and I thought, if you haven't heard this recording of an interview with Dad that mentions Brushy you might like to. https://www.ngataonga.org.nz/search-use-collection/search/278129/ I remember Brushy well as he had girls my age with his second wife the lovely Pixie and we all lived in Auckland's eastern suburbs. Lots of parties!

My email is pjhansen48@gmail.com I have a huge scrapbook of Dad's rugby life - mainly in the South as you may know. Thank you for keeping all the history of this rugby alive - an important part of NZ life. I couldn't find another way to contact you - hence this post. Kind regards, Penelope Hansen
