Really great video about a really great and inspirational player. I too dropped down a league when a young player when I couldn’t make the first team at a top club. But I stayed there…😊

You forgot the "Law Change" that states that scrum feed do not have to be straight! This has lead to scrums to not being a competitive pushing teamwork aspect of the game, but instead a highly technical exercise of having 16 men being stable in a stress position!!!

I am obviously joking. However, I have seen some Rugby Union scrum feed that are so crooked that it makes rugby league scrum feeds look fair and competitive

Connor, what is Jonny Grey up to these days? We haven't seen him for a long while. Excellent article by the way.

He’s at Bordeaux just now after having a long injury which kept him out for about 18 months. He ruled himself out of the November internationals for a rest and to not rush into international rugby after his return from injury. Hopefully we’ll see him in the 6 Nations

Played in the inside backs against Finn a few times, first at Falkirk, then when he moved to Ayr. Great memories and always love to see him do well and I like the fact he wasn't put through the pathways as usual. Great example of talent standing out above the boys who mature early.

We weren`t beaten by Australia in the quarter finals we were cheated by a southern hemisphere ref who had been cited by the French as showing southern bias , that was before awarding Australia a wrongful penalty in the infamous quarter final and he then compounded this by being the first referee in history to "run" off the field at that level . And as for Finn going to Racing that was prompted when Finn eclipsed the Great Dan Carter when the Warriors thrashed Racing home and away in the European cup

Finn was a stonemason? Wow... should be the other way around lol how a boring old (I know he’s not boring lol) rugger player became a stonemason? Lot of money in stonemasonry - can literally pick your jobs and name your price 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Nice, well researched piece on one of my favourite players (I’m a Jock). Stuff I didn’t know about his earlier days, well done. Just one point though, you were absolutely correct about the England vs Scotland game at Twickenham, it was 31 - 7 at half time but just a few minutes earlier, it was even worse at 31 - 0! I was watching the game in a pub in Edinburgh and walked out as I was so disappointed/embarrassed. Walking about the town with my wife and kids I heard a cheer, then another and another. Rushed back to our hotel to see the last 20 minutes or so. What a game, really disappointed we didn’t win but if you would have asked me if I’d take a draw before half time I’d have taken that all day. Incredible game!

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah I was at the pub with some mates too during that game and we thought about leaving at half time but then someone said “but what if?” So we stayed. And then the what if happened!! Lol.

This may be a dumb question but when a scrum is awarded on the opposite side of the field, does the 6 and 7 switch so the 6 remains on the blind side?
@ConnorDoesRugby
@ConnorDoesRugby 27 күн бұрын
Not a dumb questions, yes they swap sides so that the 6 is always on the blind side
