1)Name: William Andrew John Ridley2)Birthday: 5th July 1988. Born in Taupo.
3)Hometown and Province: Grew up in Taupo before going to High School in Wanganui. Mighty King Country region.
4)Physical Stats: 1.85cm/ 6'1, 80kg's +/- of sleek lean muscle
5)Education: Hilltop Primary and Intermediate. Wanganui Collegiate School. Victoria University of Wellington (Commerce and Administration (Accounting and Commercial Law)) and Post Graduate Diploma in Professional Accounting. Hate it.
6)Best rugby moment: Once we had a 5 metre scrum on the try line we were defending and I told the 1st 5 to pass it to me instead of kicking it out... I took the ball, legged it past the wing, got to the half where I placed a kick over the fullbacks head for one of our guys to pick the ball up and score. Full field try. Loved it.
7)Best OBU Therapists moment: Selfishly, the time I played centre, got a sweet ball, stepped inside, hit the gap, stepped outside and dotted underneath the posts
8)Who is your all- time favorite rugby hero: Jonah Lomu. Devastating on attack and is all about the black jersey and less about the coin. Big Heart
9) If you could invite 5 people to dinner who would they be: Hayden Panettiere because I love her. Blake Lively (in case it didn't work out with Hayden). Selena Gomez, incase it didnt work out with either Hayden or Blake. Peyton Manning because he is the greatest living Quarterback and could teach me some shit. Rob Drydek because he is living the dream and could teach me some shit
10) Who was your 1st kiss: First kiss, Emma Mayer, 'in the dell' behind some flax bushes. First kiss kiss... Jamie Maddox, behind the Headmasters back fence, night time moonlight penetrating the trees, ran away and told all my friends instantly
11) Where do you see yourself in 10 years: Ideally as QB 1 for the New York Giants with a shiny blue number 5 on my jersey. But probably in Auckland or Sydney in a bank or a key financial role in a company
12) Who is your favourite fellow OBU Therapist: Like it is going to be anyone other than Shaquille O'Seal. So much heart, inspirational leader by performance, funny and all round good guy.
13) Nicknames: Terminator, Riddles, Cock eyed Ridley, Skinny white boy who I'm going to smash
14) What's your favourite 'I was hanging with the boys this one time and...' story?: It was about 11PM on Guy Fawkes day at school in 4th form and we decided to go out and try and buy some fireworks before they stopped been sold. Walked around town and car full of dudes pulled over and tried to start a fight. We ignored them and walked on. The next week they were on the news for stabbing a guy
15) What was the cause behind your worst ever hangover: Smirnoff Ice at the afterball in 6th form. Hated life for the next couple of days. Havent touched them since.
16) Worst job you ever had: Groundsman at Owen Delaney Park. Work was OK but the boss was simply awful, a real dick.
17) What is your ultimate hangover cure: Sleep in as long as possible, go for a run and then drink some sugary drink. Usually coke.
18) What's your cooking specialty: Chicken, pesto, pasta. Great night-before-gameday-meal. Carbs, protein, deliciousness and easy.
19) What is your strategy for picking up the ladies in town: Get real drunk and sloppy and stare at them with my creepy smile. Needless to say I have been single for four years and my pillow has been over-spooned
20) What's the one song you want to hear before you run out onto the field for OBU Therapists: Eric Prydz: Pjaano (Club Mix) as found on the Ministry of Sound the Annual 2009. That song does indescribable things to me
21) Tom Brady or Peyton Manning: Manning. There is no play called until they are at the line of scrimmage. He reads the defence like a bastard and controls the game. Plus Brady is a douchebag and plays for New England. No one likes New England.
The one and only William Ridley everyone!!! Cheers mate and stay tuned for next weeks Features Featured Therapist of the Week!!!
