Surely a good omen for Ireland’s upcoming clash with England?
Former Munster and Ireland scrum-half, Peter Stringer was a guest on BT Sport’s Rugby Tonight show, on Monday, and took on Austin Healy – he of Leicester, England and Lions fame – in a passing competition.
The ‘battle of the scrum-halves’ premise was to ping the bullseye – or close to it – on an electronic pad located 10 metres away.
Stringer hit two bullseyes and came close on another couple of occasions.
Healy had a nightmare. It was like his 2001 sparring match with Brian O’Driscoll all over again.
