SAGINAW, MI — A judge again has denied the separate trial request of a Saginaw man charged in a New Year's Eve 2010 homicide.
This time, Saginaw County Circuit Judge Darnell Jackson's decision on Monday, July 15, comes after he already has sentenced William R. Borrero for second-degree murder.
Jackson for the third time denied Borrero's request for a separate trial from his co-defendant Christopher M. DeLeon.
A jury in March convicted Borrero, 20, of second-degree murder and 15 other felonies and DeLeon, 19, of acting as an accessory after the fact and two firearm offenses in the Dec. 31, 2010, shooting death of 23-year-old Tyler Strong.
Borrero's attorney, Rod O'Farrell, filed a motion for a new trial or, alternatively, for judgment notwithstanding the verdict and a renewed motion for a separate trial.
Saginaw County Assistant Prosecutor A. George Best said during the pair's trial that Strong drove to Borrero's house along with two of his friends, one of whom was Aaron T. Anthony, to purchase marijuana. Strong's friends went inside Borrero's house as Strong waited in the car; after they began driving away, somebody opened fire.
Strong was shot in the head and later died at the hospital, Best said. Strong crashed the vehicle, Best said. Strong's friends, who were not shot, fled the area.
O'Farrell's issue since his first separate trial motion has been his intention to accuse DeLeon of being the shooter. Jackson has maintained that most, if not all, of the evidence that O'Farrell would use to support that theory already was being presented by Best, regardless of whether both men were on trial at the same time.
O'Farrell continued that argument Monday, saying that his "concerns came to fruition" during the trial. O'Farrell said that during closing arguments, DeLeon's attorney, Matthew Frey, was "basically contesting my theory."
Frey's argument "undercut, was antagonistic toward, and undermined" the defense, O'Farrell said. "It would have been a good rebuttal from the prosecutor, but it came from my co-defendant."
Best countered, saying that "at no point ever has Mr. Borrero pointed the finger at Mr. DeLeon" and that Borrero, in his interview with police, said DeLeon wasn't at the house. O'Farrell, Best said, faced a hard choice between having Borrero testify — and subject him to cross-examination — or argue a theory "not based on fact."
In addition to that argument, O'Farrell presented several others. He said that Borrero's mother spoke with retired Saginaw Police Detective Andy Carlson after the verdict and that Carlson told her he knew DeLeon was involved in two other shootings and that Borrero didn't assist police in those investigations.
O'Farrell said he heard the exchange, and argued Monday that a new trial was warranted because Jackson approved his request for the prosecution to provide any exculpatory evidence and he didn't receive any police reports about DeLeon's alleged involvement in other shootings.
"That should have been disclosed to me," O'Farrell said.
Best said that despite O'Farrell filing the new trial motion in May, Monday was the first time he heard O'Farrell say he heard the exchange between Carlson and Borrero's mother. The prosecutor added that O'Farrell had not presented any sworn affidavits regarding the exchange.
Jackson questioned how O'Farrell could use that evidence in the trial, and when O'Farrell said he could use it to show DeLeon's character, the judge said he wouldn't have admitted the evidence in the first place.
"That may have been reversible too," O'Farrell said, referring to an impending appeal to the Michigan Court of Appeals.
In convicting Borrero, the jury chose the lesser offense of second-degree murder compared to first-degree premeditated murder. First-degree murder carries a mandatory sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole, while second-degree carries a maximum of life with parole.
Jackson handed down the stiffest penalty he could, sentencing Borrero to 65 to 80 years in prison. He sentenced DeLeon to a total of three years and 11 months to seven years in prison with more than 19 months credit.
Borrero, who appeared for Monday's hearing, is imprisoned at the St. Louis Correctional Facility, and his earliest release date is Jan. 5, 2078. DeLeon is imprisoned at the Parnall Correctional Facility in Jackson; his earliest release date is Aug. 18, 2015.

The account of the freeway gunfight of last August continues to provoke diverse comments from readers.
"Paths to a Deadly Encounter" traced events leading up to the shooting involving John V. Allen II, a father traveling with his children, and Oregon State Police Trooper Matt Zistel. Allen died and Zistel was wounded in the 39-second confrontation along Interstate 84 east of The Dalles.
Readers commented on Allen's
apparent mental health issues and his use of marijuana, on Zistel's calm under
fire, and the daily risk police officers face. If you want to read all the comments or post your own -- and we encourage you to do so -- go to this link.
Here is a sampling of comments posted online at oregonlive.com and sent via email.
Regarding the mental issues:
I'm a nurse with a real heart for those with mental health issues, primarily cause I've had to deal with my own PTSD issues. I, like many nurses and health professionals like me, have felt that fear when assigned someone with a severe mental health disease but have since learned from experience that most of these folks are regular people with good intentions. I think that if any one of us believed in our core that people "out there" were intent on harming our children, we too would take drastic measures. I've worked as a psych nurse in an acute inpatient psych center and seen the utter fright on the faces of those with paranoid schizophrenia and/or PTSD. These folks BELIEVE that their delusion is as real as the rocks beneath our feet. Then throw in the stigma of mental health disease and -poof- you have a very sick person who refuses to get help. On top of this, add common every day human stupidity (using mind altering substances even when we may know its harmful for our well-being) and this story doesn't sound all that rare. I've taken care of many folk with this ex-soldier's illness though maybe not to this degree and I've seen MANY times how our mental health treatments (meds, therapy, support groups) have given some peace of mind back to these folk (can speak first hand to that one).
Regarding the work of Zistel and other police officers:
I've worked with a lot of state troopers over the years, they are always the best. Trooper Zistel exemplifies why the Oregon State Police is by far the most professional law enforcement agency Oregon has.
Glad to hear Trooper Zistel is back. Amazing composure under extreme circumstances. Even though he had to take a life to rightfully defend himself, his restraint probably saved other people and possibly the man's children. This whole incident makes it so glaringly clear to anyone who would argue for less LI that the OSP's numbers have been dangerously reduced. And really all the money the state throws around for sometimes dubiously non essential projects they can't come up with enough cash to make sure emergency helicopter service is available within a few minutes to anywhere in Oregon.
The article reaffirms my conviction that all of our law enforcement officers deserve far more respect than they usually receive. Dealing with the misfits of society, never knowing if this is the traffic stop that's going to end my life. It's definitely a job I (and most of us) could never do. If I had my way, all officers everywhere would have their salaries doubled or even tripled.
Officer Zistel was the good guy. That doesn't mean Allen was necessarily bad. More like troubled and mentally sick, living outside of reality. In his mental state, he likely thought the officer was a threat, and acted accordingly. Unfortunately, that made him a mortal danger to just about anybody who crossed his path. It is fortunate that Allen ran into Zistel instead of seeing some other unarmed, untrained, and unsuspecting person as a threat.
On the format of the report:
This is an example of what news organizations need to do to survive: combine investigation, reporting and electronic media. The officer's instincts and training saved his life. Puts into perspective for the rest of us what risks police face during every encounter. Glad he is back on the job. I hope the Allen children receive some help, what a tragedy for them.
Carl Smith, Woodburn, via email:
Great job on the article, fascinating how to see the paths that brought these 2 people to that violent intersection, those videos really add to the powerful reality of it all, wow.
And criticism of the report:
Regis18: Well-written story BUT -- cannot for the life of me figure out why this is the headline story when the event occurred months ago. How is this deserving of being the major headline on the anniversary of JFK's death and on the morning after the filibuster was reduced to rubble after a decade of abuse. Somebody at The Oregonian needs to get some perspective. And the only story on the front page about JFK is that had he lived longer he might have done better. Shameful.
Keith Miller, Beaverton, via email:
In your three-part story about the shooting and John V. Allen II, one very obvious question is not addressed or mentioned, let alone answered. In your article you wrote [that] in 2012, presumably meaning from South Carolina, "as he prepared to leave for Oregon that fall, he left behind his Smith & Wesson and a shotgun in a motel. Police were called to collect the weapons, and Allen recovered them shortly before heading for Oregon." The question: Did the police bother to investigate as to whether he legally acquired these weapons or could legally possess them before they returned them to him? If so, what was their finding? How and where did he acquire them? How did he legally travel from South Carolina to Oregon with these weapons? With all the stink about owning guns these days, I am surprised that you overlooked this.(I responded to Mr. Miller that police in South Carolina returned the weapons when he established ownership and didn't investigate further. We didn't trace the history of the guns.)
Howard Downey, McMinnvile, via email:
How many more days are you guys at The Oregonian going to continue beating this dead horse? So a state trooper and a threatened former soldier have a gun-blazing confrontation? Who cares after the first news report several months ago? This non-story does not deserve one-tenth the ink and newspaper space that The Oregonian has given it.

food for thought ( maybe not... hey that rhymes!)
I just wanted to get my thoughts on the web.. first off I love all the post and look at how many post people have and wow some of you people have fast fingers! where can I learn that?? oh well i just have 60 or so post but i am going my own pace that is what aikido is all about!
anyhow.. .... I just wanted to say thank you to all the teachers and sensis of Aikido and other martail arts because it is summer and I train more and I thought if it hadnt been for the people after o sensi then aikido would be dead! so thank you all sensi! I also wanted to post a question.
have any of you been to the home land of Aikido ( I cant really spell jappane right or did I?) and then gone to other countries and found a different quality of Aikido?? does location matter or is it more dependent on the sensi?
I was just wondering because I never really known many sensi who have been to jappan except Jacques Payet (5th dan Yoshinkan) and his aikido is incredable so.... also some people say I would go to jappane to get real aikido not from here and I say well... there are a lot of talented non jappenes teachers who have not been to jappan ( I know because all the sensi couldnt have gone to jappan to study and wow quality aikido is great in some!!)
well just me rambling trying to make conversation.. hope nobody takes any offence

New Pewaukee gym still feels like home
The new gymnasium has three stations and can accommodate up to 1,500 spectators. While it's brand-new, it still hasn't lost its heart.
"What I love most about the new gymnasium is that it feels like our old gym, only bigger. It serves more people, yet it feels like our home turf," Sternke said.
That's no accident. Athletics Director John Maltsch toured many gymnasiums before meeting with the architects.
"That was our mission going in. We're going to do this right," Maltsch said, "We wanted to keep the mystique of the old gym. We still wanted to be Pirates."
They've already tested their sea legs in the gym. Maltsch said the larger space was critical to the football team this year when heavy rains turned their football fields into mud this fall. They finally had the indoor space needed for practice. He said that indoor soccer teams have the space to pass to each other, and the baseball teams or softball teams can practice drills or set up batting cages. Wrestling mats, too, can be placed (anywhere from four to eight) comfortably during tournaments or practices.
These are all things they couldn't do before.
"I think my favorite part of the new gym would be the dividers. They prove useful for certain units, like the floor hockey unit my class has. They help because it prevents … other people running into another game or the puck from going into another game, as well," said junior Aspen Johnson.
Floor hockey is just one example of the physical education units, some new, for Pewaukee High School.
Physical education teacher Karen Spurr said they're in the middle of exciting curriculum changes, adding new classes or tweaking their current ones to offer more variety. Dance or movement fitness, cardio, Zumba, kickboxing, team sports, ultimate Frisbee and floor hockey - these just a few options designed to appeal to any range of interests. The dividers are great for safety, double-booking and even separating a class into groups, she said.
"The new gym is a physical education teacher's dream that offers awesome space for students to be active, and at the same time allow for a variety of activities and skill levels for play and work," Spurr said.
The new space is also benefiting academics, Maltsch said. Because it's so much easier to share the space, practices and games finish earlier in the day. Last year, some students wouldn't get out until 9:30 p.m. because they had to wait for the gym to finish one activity before starting a different one.
"Now, they're out at 7 or 7:30, which makes so much more sense. They can hit the books and get to their homework a lot earlier," said Maltsch.
Youth groups, intramural sports and other community activities are also in the works.
"We did it the right way. We thought long and hard about it, and we did it right. I think it will pay back in dividends for the future, for both the students and the community," Maltsch said.

It's undeniable that there's still power in a TVC, and when people see something really effective, they think that for it to escape the dark corner of the internet that they saw it on is for it to be broadcast.
That advert is by the US Drug Policy Alliance and tried to get across the utter codshite policy of focusing on the drug problem and locking up as many people as possible as a route to electoral success.
The first comment after this video inspired me somewhat
'Who do we give money to to get that run as an honest to god TV ad?'
Well, exactly, I mean in the age of mass participation, people selling houses in lotteries, buying football clubs in syndicates and of sketching in a swarm why isn't there a place where we can donate money to buy media space for a message we think people need to see. This would be the ultimate in 'power to the people' with certain issues pertinant to segments of the population perhaps being given a share of voice that they've never received before, maybe even highlighting issues in the heads of people who've never thought them before, maybe if you were a closed minded voter in the US that thought 'well, those guys seem to be doing a good job, locking up all the drug addicts, I don't know about anyone else so I'll vote for them', you'd see this ad and you might see another side to it.
So. If you're an organisation or a brand or a man or a woman or a child with a nice message or a message that you think people need to see and you think other people would agree with you, put the message out there with an easy mechanic to accept donations for delivery of that message.
You could have levels of media buy at every price point from TV, national press, local press, online or text ads sponsoring all uses of the word 'drug' in the online edition of The Times etc

Tracking commentary and opinion from around Central New York, the state and nation:
Thursday's Topic:
John Omicinski, of Syracuse, writes about Syracuse bureaucrats in the Readers' Page of today's Post-Standard. Here is his letter:
City bureaucrats have gone bonkers! And they're killing any chance that Syracuse can make a comeback.
A friend recently decided to entertain a guest at a North Salina Street restaurant. He thought about going to a place in Liverpool that has free parking, but decided a city restaurant was the better choice.
After a nice meal, he exited the restaurant to find two - not one, but two - Syracuse parking checkers attaching a ticket to his windshield. My friend was puzzled by this, since he was absolutely certain that the time he purchased from the parking meter hadn't expired. Sure enough, he still had about 15 minutes left.
The parking checkers agreed that he had plenty of time left on his parking slip. However, they said, he was parked more than 12 inches from the curb! The ticket for exceeding the one-foot limit will cost him $35 - more than he spent for the meal.
It's this kind of stupidity that will kill any chance Syracuse has to regain the status that it once had in my youth. The bureaucrats are running amok, and our leaders see no reason to bring them under control.
You won't see me in any downtown restaurant anytime soon. Unless, of course, I bring a yardstick.

This season, it's been a twin package that has provided coach Janel Burgess and her Grand Valley State women's basketball team with a major lift.
Freshman identical twins Briauna and Brittany Taylor of Livonia provided the Lakers with another double spark Thursday night to lead them to a 77-51 win against Findlay at home.
Briauna scored 12 points and grabbed eight rebounds and Brittany had 12 points and six rebounds as GVSU stopped a two-game league losing streak.
Freshman Alex Stelfox scored 16 points and Emma Veach (Grand Haven) had 13 for the Lakers (15-5, 12-3 Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference), who remained in a second-place tie with Northern Michigan and behind Michigan Tech in the GLIAC's North Division.
"This was a great team win," Burgess said. "The greatest thing is we played strong defense against a team averaging eight 3-pointers and over 70 points (72.3) a game."The twins are a big part of our defense. They are our dynamic duo. They're hard to defend, very strong and very quick on defense."
The Taylors paced a GVSU defense that forced Findlay (15-5, 10-5 and in first place in GLIAC's South Division)into 22 turnovers with 13 steals and allowed the Oilers just two 3-point field goals in 16 attempts.
"We've played together since AAU, so, no matter what, we didn't want to get separated in college," Briauna said.
"Not yet, at least," Brittany chimed in.
Eastern Michigan wanted the twins, but only if Brittany attended the NCAA Division I school on a softball scholarship and Briauna on a basketball scholarship.
"We can't stop playing basketball together," Briauna said. "Brit is high energy and knocks down 3s. I'm more an inside player."
"We complement each other," Brittany added. "We talk and do little things no one else knows about to keep each other up when one of us gets down and to stay competitive. That's been even more fun to do here at Grand Valley."
Neither team had a lead larger than four points midway through the first half until the Lakers went on a 22-3 scoring run to carry a 34-19 advantage into halftime.
During GVSU's run, Findlay went 9:38 without a field goal and 5:19 without a point en route to 9-for-23 shooting in the opening stanza.
Grand Valley's defense also rounded up nine steals as part of the Oilers' 13 first-half turnovers and cashed in 13 points off Findlay miscues.
Briauna led an inside attack that outscored the Oilers 40-24 in the paint. The Lakers also finished with 21 total points off turnovers to help with their 31-for-61 field-goal shooting.

Tennis giant-killer Jerzy Janowicz coming to Auckland
Wednesday 28 Nov 2012 6:54 a.m.
World No.26 Jerzy Janowicz (Reuters file)
High-flying Polish tennis player Jerzy Janowicz has confirmed his entry in the Heineken Open in Auckland.
World No.26 Janowicz raised eyebrows when he went on a giant-killing run to the final of last month's Paris Masters, where he fell to the man who will be top seed in Auckland, Spain's David Ferrer.
Five top-20 players were dispatched by the 22-year-old qualifier in Paris, including US Open champion Andy Murray.
It further boosted the ranking of Janowicz, who was a lowly 220th in the world just a year ago.
Heineken Open tournament director Karl Budge says much interest will surround whether the 2.03m Pole can reproduce the same form in Auckland from January 7.
"Janowicz has had one of those seasons that most players only dream about," Budge said.
"Players outside the top 50 simply don't make the finals of masters level events. You only need to look at how long it took Ferrer to win one to see how treasured they are."

After a long summer that began in the wake of a first-round playoff elimination in 2012-13, anticipation is high for the Hershey Bears as they eye 2013-14 training camp.
Anticipation is especially high for new Bears head coach Mike Haviland.
It will be his first training camp as an AHL head coach since 2007-08 with the Rockford IceHogs.
"I'm really excited to be back being a head coach again," Haviland said Monday, "and certainly with this franchise and all the success it's had here.
"It's going to be a great year. I know it already. The staff is outstanding."
The Bears are scheduled to report for training camp late Monday afternoon and have physicals and a team meeting. On-ice work, led by Haviland and assistant coach Ryan Mougenel, begins at 9:45 a.m. Tuesday at Hersheypark Arena.
The Bears will have three days of camp workouts before opening a three-game exhibition season Friday when the Utica Comets visit Giant Center. They also will host the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins Saturday and visit WBS Sunday.
"We have no time here," Haviland said. "We have to start teaching, which we will do.
"I'm going to demand a lot of pace from them. I want to play with pace. I want to play with puck possession and really kind of be an in-your-face type of team, a team that works hard. That starts, obviously, tomorrow."
Hershey will play a similar system to the Washington Capitals to make the assimilation process for in-season recalls easier.
"But we're certainly going to put our spin on it," Haviland said. "We have some other things we want to implement."
Players who attended – and are still attending – Caps training camp got a bit of a leg up on systems work.
"The system that Washington runs, it's not a complex system, but it takes a little while to get used to," Bears defenseman Patrick Wellar said. "I think that the teaching aspect is really important, especially with the way we play. We want to get off to a fast start. I think with our new coaches here, it was a good chance for us to meet them and vice versa.
"I think all the guys that are here are ready to go. All the guys that we brought in seem like really good people. We've already gelled really closely together in the short time we've been together, even in Washington there. I think this is going to be a really fun year."
At Hershey's training camp, Wellar and fellow returnees like Jeff Taffe and Julien Brouillette will continue to meld with newcomers like Jamie Johnson, Derek Whitmore and Matt Watkins.
Haviland, associate coach of the Norfolk Admirals in 2012-13, is the first Hershey head coach to come from outside the affiliate organization since Bruce Boudreau, who moved from the Los Angeles Kings-affiliated Manchester Monarchs to the Bears in 2005-06 in the first season of the Washington affiliation.
Bob Woods and Mark French, who both won Calder Cups like Boudreau, were promoted to head coach internally. French, now a head coach in the KHL, served as Hershey's head coach the past four seasons.
"It's going to be just a new challenge to start all over again," Brouillette said. "Not necessarily a new system, but a new way to process new guys."
More assignments are expected from Washington following Monday night's exhibition game against the Boston Bruins. Washington sent defenseman Cameron Schilling and goalie David Leggio to Hershey Monday afternoon.
"We're going to play this accordingly here day by day, really," Haviland said. "When they send guys, we'll release guys."
Assignments from the Caps will be a continuing wild card. Washington's roster is at 34 and NHL clubs must cut to 23 by Sept. 30.
The exhibition games, Haviland said, will be used for player evaluation and looks at line combinations and defensive pairs to see what might work for the regular season.
Like Washington's camp, roster competition in Hershey's camp figures to be on the margins.
"On paper when you look at it, there's a lot of guys who certainly fit the bill that you can look and say, 'Well, they're going to stay, they're going to stay,'" Haviland said. "But I certainly think there's a lot of competition still left. We're going to have a lot of tough decisions on defense and up front.
"There's going to be some guys that are going to be fighting for jobs that maybe have played in the American League and may have to start in the East Coast Hockey League. It's certainly a competitive camp. I take my hat off to Doug [Yingst] and the Caps for putting this together. Ryan and I are really excited about coaching this team."

Kate Rowan: The thin sporting thread that links Spurs sensation Gareth Bale with Wales captain Sam Warburton
Published 25/01/2013 | 10:17
GO BACK the guts of a decade to Whitchurch High School in Cardiff. Their football team is pretty impressive. There is one young lad on the team who is streets ahead of his teammates and opposition. He has such a good left foot that the coach makes him play with the right foot in school games to level the playing field.
This kid is already involved in the Southampton academy and it is only a matter of time before he gives up his books to become professional. However, he isn't the only promising player on his school team. A bigger, burlier boy has sparked the interest of hometown club Cardiff City and has had a couple of trials but he is starting to focus on rugby.
Fast forward to today and this pair are two of Wales' most recognisable sportsmen. The player with the deadly left foot departed school after sitting his GCSEs and went on to play for the Saints before being picked up by Tottenham Hotspur. As a mark of his importance to his side, he was the player Manchester United chose to target in the clubs' one-all draw last weekend. This is of course Gareth Bale.
What became of the other lad with rugby aspirations? Irish rugby fans will be keeping a keen eye on Welsh captain Sam Warburton leading up to Ireland's opening Six Nations fixture.
The soccer star became a household name first while Warburton dismissed the chance to play for the Welsh sevens in order to concentrate on academics, harbouring aspirations of studying medicine like Wales and Cardiff Blues colleague Jamie Roberts. After a year in university, the openside flanker opted to dedicate his time to rugby.
In a quirk of fate, the rugby star revealed that in their school days it was he who dreamed of playing at White Hart Lane as he was and still is a Tottenham fan. He argued about football with Bale, who grew up supporting Arsenal.
The Spurs star said: "Given his size now he'd probably make a good centre-half – I've played against some of the best defenders in the world but I'm not sure how much I'd fancy facing Sam with his power and strength!"
The two Cardiff men have shone at relatively young ages and have proven to be world class in their respective positions. Yet both have had to deal with highs and lows in their sporting careers.
With Bale as one of the architects of Tottenham's success over recent seasons, it can be easy to forget that he endured a difficult transition period from Southampton to North London losing the left-back spot. Being pushed to play at left midfield was when the Welshman started to really make his mark.
It seems strange now that less than four years ago he was perceived as a jinx to the success of the side. "The Gareth Bale Curse" as it became known was a spell of 24 games where Bale appeared for Tottenham and the side did not manage a win, finally ending in September 2009.
With the Principality losing their last seven test matches and Cardiff Blues' poor recent form, there is much speculation as to where in the back row Warburton may start against Ireland. Not that long ago, he was being mentioned in the same breath as Richie McCaw and David Pocock in the pecking order of world class opensides but could be shifted to the blindside to accommodate on form Ospreys flanker Justin Tipuric.
Ireland beware - the 24 year-old has a record of proving doubters wrong. Perhaps Bale's bouncing back from the various disappointments in the infancy of his Spurs career may have proved to be inspiration for Warburton. He has had to deal with the fall-out and regret following his sending-off for the now infamous tip-tackle on Vincent Clerc in the game that saw the Welsh lose out on a first ever World Cup final spot to France.
However, at then 23, he also demonstrated maturity and sportsmanship in publicly admitting to the illegal tackle and in saying Alain Rolland had made the correct decision in sending him off.
Coach Warren Gatland decided to keep faith in his young captain and the player rewarded this loyalty, helping lead Wales to the Grand Slam last year.
Warburton picked up the title of "Squeaky-clean Sam" in the British tabloid press during the 2012 Six Nations due to his self-imposed alcohol ban, which his Welsh international teammates also decided to adopt.
Dealing with this increased media exposure could also be something else that he may possibly turn to his old school friend for advice.
Both Bale and Warburton are seen as role models in the Valleys and particularly in Whitchurch High. However, us Irish will be hoping that the rugby man will not give a top of the class performance in just over a week's time.
