Team joker
Jack Powell / Owain Morgan - can always rely on them for some good chat

Carwyn Sion - worst fitting jeans in Neath
Most memorable game
Haven't had many in a Neath Jersey - scoring against the Whites on the Gnoll was memorable but I hope there's plenty more to come
Sporting Hero
Ross Edgely - love to see a heavy boy smashing triathalons and pushing the boundaries outside of Rugby
Favourite TV Programme
Prison Break
My game preparation
Perfect poached eggs and avocado in the morning, watch the odd David Pocock tribute video if I really need to get my head in the game, get the music pumping and pre game jitters out of the way and leave it on the firld
Player admired
Professionally - Ben Earl and Alex Dombrandt. Obviously admire the hard work being put in by the other Kneath brothers on the pitch elsewhere in Wales

Guinness
Favourite Quote
What is this? A center for ants? How can we be expected to teach children to learn how to read... if they can't even fit inside the building? - Derek Zoolander
Advice to younger players
Always think of where the ball is going to be two plays / phases ahead and keep your head in the game. Feels like a lifetime waiting for your time to shine when you're young and coming after club legends and seniors, remember it is a long season with loads of games, there'll be time to make your mark - just stick with it.
