Video: Nigel Owens delivered another of his classic one liners at the weekend

Whenever he hangs up his whistle, he might go into stand up

The BT Sport mics caught a funny exchange in the game between Harlequins and Wasps

Welsh ref Nigel Owens has been on a roll lately with his comments to players. From his infamous ‘I’m straighter than that one’ line earlier in the season

to telling the Munster and Toulouse front rows that if they don’t like scrummaging they are in the wrong position, Owens like to bring a bit of humour to his officiating.

The Welsh man was at it again at the weekend when he took charge of Harlequins and Wasps. Bradley Davies and George Robson started to get a bit aggro but it was far from serious.

Owens firmly put them in their place by saying that ‘If you want a cwtch (Welsh word for hug or cuddle) do it off the field, not on it’.

Well played Nigel, well played.
