The Poms had the pool, the health club, they had been in a resort on the Gold Coast, they educated at Metricon (now Heritage Bank Stadium), weren’t confined to their rooms and had their households there.
“Was that really quarantine? They were still allowed to play golf on tour. Is that an excuse for 4-0? Dunno.
