Willie Anderson Time Quotations

I am delighted to be back, spending time with my family and use the experience I have, whether I am coaching the Under-14s at Sullivan Upper or coaching coaches at Level 3 (with the IRFU). It is good to be able to help people change,

I think it's a different feel for our fans. In years past we have been packing it up at this time of the season. I think our fans have been caving it in, too. It's a new experience for everybody.

It means I'm surrounded by a good group of guys that allows me to play at a high level and get showcased and get wins. Anytime you get an individual honor, to me, it always comes back to the guys around you. The guys I'm playing with on the offensive line - Bobbie Williams, Richie Braham, Levi (Jones) and (Eric) Steinbach - those guys allow me to go out and get my talent showcased because they're playing so well as a unit. Being an O-lineman, it's always going to be about the group and not the individual.

I have to make sure I'm not going to cost myself or the team some valuable time later in the season. It's going to be a long season.
