Who is the most famous sportsperson you have played against?
At the mo mine is Jaques Rudolph, he bats at no3 for South Africa now, I just saw him on tv and it jogged my memory.
Not a massive name but I'm moving to a different team this season who play in a better league and one of the other teams has signed Shaun Pollock as their overseas pro, should be fun!
Any others?

yup thats the one!
used to do the sound & lighting early last year for a few months for a UK tour of some american wrestlers (some old ones like barbarian, collussus), and some UK wrestlers too.
got on well with luna tho, she was a right laugh!
also gangrel used to have real fangs (well, caps), said he paid about $10,000 to have them done as he used to be in one of them vampire cult things hence his charector in WWE, but they got knocked out in a match once

I've heard of Lashings, isn't it some rich guy who owns a pub and pays them all to play. Henry Olonga played for them this year after he had to leave Zimbabwe and claim asylum over here. Think Brian Lara and Mark Waugh played for them aswell.

I didnt exactly used to 'play against' but I used to ride with a VERY famous BMXer called Jamie Bestwick. That was until Team GT bought him a house over in the states for him and the missus and pay him to ride a BMX all day long. He was world No1 vert rider at one point along side Matt Hoffman
