Pic: What if every player in the Irish squad was as grumpy as Simon Zebo?

He's doing this on purpose now at this stage

Ben Kiely

Simon Zebo must be on to this. Last week he pulled a ludicrously happy face in the Irish rugby squad photo, this week he’s got a sour puss on him.

Will you look at Zebo in this photo? I’m not going to point him out because as he’s making such a dour grimace, he’s very easy to spot.

In last week’s team photo he looked absolutely delighted with himself, as if someone had just given him a 99 on a blistering hot, summer’s day. This week, it appears that someone has ripped his ice cream cone from his grasp and smushed it into the sand.

What one of the seven dwarfs will the Munster man be portraying in the next team photo? Dopey? Sleepy? Doc? That last one might be a tall order. No one really knows what it actually means.

You know where we’re going with this. This is how the Irish rugby squad would look like if they were as grumpy as the one, the only, Simon Zebo.
