BILLY BROWN NOSE
Billy Vunipola brown-nosing his boss is not what one loves rugby for; and if he's not doing that, then he is simply trying to bring attention to the fact that his autobiography has just come out. Sour grapes or just a cynic? Bang goes his rep so far as I'm concerned. Glad he didn't get to go.

WHAT ARE LITTLE BOYS MADE OF
The fearless Midge Decter on boys (and girls):
Anyone who has ever watched little boys at play knows that
whatever they are up to, for good or ill, their hearts are always on their
sleeves. Little girls acquire wiles with practically their first step. They
flirt, they pout, they manipulate. Watch a group of them at play, and what will
be going on beneath their games is an instinctive feel for tactics and strategy
worthy of the world’s most practiced diplomats. Boys, by contrast, have no
wiles. As the years go on, life will teach them not to cry when they want to,
and to cover up their fear. But little boys almost never dissemble or
manipulate; even their lies are
transparent. Nor, as a rule, do they romanticize themselves, which is perhaps
why millions upon millions of them could be sent into combat without becoming
murderers.
