Sequoia seeds have flat wings, and glint and glance in their flight like a boy's kite.

Against a team who are tight inside their area, you look to find combinations, the center with the wings or with shots from outside the box.

I think I'm a three. But if we got three wings out there, I'll go play the four. As a four, I'm in the post a lot more. It changes your role.

When I was a child I thought I saw an angel. It had wings and kinda looked like my sister. I opened the door so some light could come into the room, and it sort of faded away. My mother said it was probably my Guardian Angel.

My mum was no pushy parent. She would drop me off for auditions when I was in my teens at the Lyric Theatre, then give me my bus fare and say she would see me later at home. She wasn't hanging around in the wings geeing me on. I had to do it on my own; it was up to me.
