Fall from grace from one of the great rugby renaissance men.

Speaking of renaissance men. I see Anton Oliver is keeping his nose clean at least. A bit of nude modelling the extent of his exploits.

Haha, I love Pinetree Meads grumpy old man reaction to Antons exploits.
What he’d make of todays All Blacks with dyed hair and tweeting every five minutes is anyones guess.

Confining himself to the disyllabic? Must have been tough.

There’s just nothing the great man can’t do.
With Tom Blundells recent woes I wouldn’t be surprised if SBW donned the keeping gloves and gave test cricket a go.

Have you seen Rocky Elsom recently? If so, the French legal system would like to know where he is.
The former Walllaby skipper has been fined 100,000 Euros and given a two-year jail sentence for misusing funds when he was Narbonne President.

47-Year old former England Captain and Flanker Lewis Moody has revealed he's got Motor Neurone Disease.
Best wishes to him and his family and close friends.
I hope they receive every support they need.

@sparky it's horrible.
I saw a reference to an italian study that suggested that elite athletes got MND at a rate up to 6x the population - due to the high exertion and oxygen deficits apparently.
Total suck though. Horrible disease.
Was wondering about why it seems common in sport.
Sad for Moody and his family.

One would expect long distance athletes to be fucked
Must be a combo of many factors
