The Beijing Bombers current players... they might look like sex wrapped up, maybe a little soft around the edges perhaps some would even say in need of some serious fitness training. But don’t be fooled these are the bad boyz of Beijing... Hard as stone, jaw lines chiseled from granite and a boot so direct even a compass would be jealous!

Most memorable Bomber Moment: |
1. Captaining the First ever Beijing Bombers team in game against Shanghai in 2003. Running out on to the ground with 'See the bombers fly up' playing on the PA sent shivers down the spine.
2. Morls' antics at the Big Bamboo post match do in Shanghai 06. I wish he could remember it, absolute pisser.
3. Handballing a sherrin throughout the carriage and mingling with the Chinese fans (obviously travelling down to watch the game) on the overnight train to Shanghai 06.
Up the Mighty Jing!..

First two quarters of the recent Beijing v. Shanghai grudge match in October 2006. We dominated in the 1st quarter and still had a decent lead at half time - and all on minimal sleep after a big Friday night on the town !
