A Challenge For Everyone!
The victor earns absolutely nothing, except some pride, I guess.
So here's the situation: I'm Israeli, and Israel has a national rugby team, soon to be ranked 79th in the world after climbing from 91st only a year and a half ago. We're still bad, but we're getting better, we beat Slovenia today, who are ranked 18 places ahead of us. Anyway, I digress. I was reading the following article:
http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/pages/ShAr ... 172.20.5.5
In which I found something interesting. Apparently there are two Israeli players who, according to the article, play for "top-notch English clubs." Now I haven't heard about Tigers signing any Israeli's, so I'm assuming the article is exaggerating, but anyway, the challenge, as you might have guessed, is to locate which English clubs Nimrod Kaplan and Matan Brosh play for. And.... GO!

I have to say, I'm very impressed. Anyone know anything about him or seen him play? (still Matan Brosh to go, if anyone wants to really impress!)

Re: A Challenge For Everyone!
I tried that but I must have not looked for enough down.
It doesn't say that Matan Brosh left Barnes, so he might still be there, no?

not often I agree with you BJ, but the internet search engines are obviously beyond some people. I mean its really difficult to copy and paste the name into the google search and press search.BJ. wrote:I don't see why. I put 'Nimrod Kaplan' into Google and the 8th entry on the first page gave me the answer. It took me all of 30 seconds.IsraeliTiger wrote:I have to say, I'm very impressed.

None what so ever BJ. Simply the colour of the hat I wear at the Rugby.BJ. wrote:Red Cap, does your forum name have anything to do with your job by any chance?
I have never been to RAF Wittering or known any of the girls in the near by villages
