A real gentleman and one of the best men to play the game

You could do a nice vignette of him and MJ sculpt J.W in 75mm and MJ in 120mm would be my advice

As nice a bloke as he is, and with his phenomenal record ! ... I doubt if it would sell on the mass market. .. As these things tend not to! as they are very specific , .. Everyone could name a fair number of, 'Sports Personalities', over the last 20/30+ yrs. that deserves such a thought! .. However I doubt any will happen !

Regards,

I know just throwing it out there in case anybody agreed, I appreciate he wasn't a Roman SS Crusadering Elf

Ah, ..but if he played for, Toulouse, wearing 'Lorica Segmentata ', then this would be a whole new conversation !

Actually, that would be great ! to have two teams of Rugby players! kitted out with this gear! no need for stamping, they just use their shields! The fly halves will be auxiliaries, the kickers use slings, the backs have an odd scorpion or two ! ... However, I would ***** that it would be a low scoring game .

So pretty much the game I played in the 70's

Can't believe I'm about to say this ........but apart from his bizarre routine at kicks he really is an example to young players about how they should conduct themselves both on amd off the field.
He is only eclipsed by that paragon Cipriani ....... a season of holding himself in check and playing some of his best rugby ....... I give him 6 months

You didn't stamp in the 70's ?

What I used to do in the centre was to use the Adidas 'French' tapered studs before they got banned and stud the whole boot with heel studs.
Very useful in the good old days as a psychological and physical deterent to having your kicks charged down.

I used to leave Adidas style stud marks on my opponents legs when rucking

Always found a good hard slap on a meaty props thigh worked wonders especially if it was a frosty morning
