Apparently England's fourth choice scrum-half told number five to pipe down last night

There was some big talk from Northampton’s Lee Dickson yesterday.

Rugby Union - Aviva Premiership - London Wasps v Northampton Rugby - Adams Park Dominic Lipinski Dominic Lipinski

A LOT OF scrum-halves resemble Jack Russell Terries – not the biggest dog in the fight but they’ve lots of energy and love to yap. Northampton’s Lee Dickson definitely falls into that category.

He is a very good passer and a sniping threat but occasionally his love of gesticulating towards the referee detracts from his all-round game. Last night Northampton took on Wasps and Dickson was going up against Joe Simpson.

Both Dickson and Simpson have been involved in England squads in the past but are a bit back in the queue at the moment. And according to Wasps out-half Andy Goode, the Northampton nine had a bit to say to his rival during his team’s win last night.

Presumably Goode has Ben Youngs ranked one and then Richard Wigglesworth and Danny Care behind him.

Dickson and Simpson are both great scrum-halves but it is pretty funny that Dickson is slagging off the Wasps man for being a place ahead of him in the pecking order.

BOD met the greatest ever Sevens magician and impressed him with an audacious bit of skill

Israel Folau’s brother is just 20 years old… he is also a complete beast

    Newcastle look safe now. Hopefully they will already be on holidays when Liverpool go there on May 5th. Either way I’d say Rafa won’t be trying his hardest to stop Liverpool if they are still in with a shout of the title then.

    @Flaming Mo: I hope you’re right but Rafa’s as straight as an arrow and I can’t picture him telling a player to go easy can you?….it would be a bit like the time Kenny brought Blackburn Rovers to Anfield looking for a win to secure the premiership, no quarter given that day and none expected by Kenny, you play to win, that day Utd blew it themselves fortunately :)
