Our thanks to Danny and we wish him and Cambridge, all the best for the rest of the season.
Quality player that we unfortunately haven’t seen so much off in the national team because of availability or injury.
ReplyDeleteHaving played with Legge when he first joined the national team what stood out (except that he was a very good player) was his humble approach.
Another fond memory of him is when he burnt the NPC gas man in Sussies in the Sthlm 10’s final…magic!
Good luck Danny, hope to see you in yellow and blue soon.
