Product Description
In Rugby Tales, Lawrence Dallaglio recalls with affection, honesty and razor-sharp humour, the classic behind-the-scenes stories that have previously only been shared within the world of international rugby.
Lawrences tales come from the dressing room, the pitch (featuring the far-from-stirring speech by a Lions captain as he and his team stood underneath their own post for the umpteenth time), the bar and the after-match dinners (where the mother of an All Black legend was described by an England captain to the player himself as an ugly old bird) and all reveal the hilarious side of rugby that the fans rarely see or hear.
All the rugby greats feature in the stories Lawrence tells, ranging from the heroes of the amateur era to the stars of the modern game. If the stories werent true, you wouldnt make them up. You wouldnt be allowed to!

I was a bit dubious about getting this present in time however, it arrived earlier than I expected and was well packaged and in excellent condition. Superb value when you look at the prices in Waterstones.

I bought this book for my husband for Christmas and read it before I gave it him. It is well worth reading and at times hilarious.
