I hope that photo wins some sort of award.

I didn't think they were allowed to smoke.

He's not smoking, he's just vaping!

Its a great shot. Reminds me of those photos where you see steam rising off a scrum on a chilly night.

He's come on a bundle this season. Really playing well.

Could someone who understands scrummaging tell me what he's like at the set piece, lest I get too excited by him.

Seems to be coming on leaps and bounds with consistent game time this season.
Was pinged quite a bit at the beginning of the season, but much less since early-mid October.

For details, you need someone who knows what's happening in the tight - I just fed them the ball and hoped they didn't take the "feed" too literally.

Being 5 foot 8 and 19 stone is a crazy body type.

Can any one come up with a tallest and shortest front row that could scrummage each other?

[Raggs]

Obano vs Antonio (the french tighthead) must be one of the biggest. Who's the shortarse that kept taking Cole apart for France?

In my memory

Sheridan, Johnson, Watt v Mighty Mouse McLauchlan, Mears, Garuet

Thomas Domingo? (The question mark is both for the spelling of the surname and for whether I have the correct player)

[Puja]

In my memory

Sheridan, Johnson, Watt v Mighty Mouse McLauchlan, Mears, Garuet

No Tom Smith?

Both a good player and a short prop by modern standard, so seems likely

Chiocci toasts everyone but is 5'11"" so Domingo's yer man.

He was a loose head, and I think Mighty Mouse was smaller. He did make the..........ta da........short list.

An even more surreal experience was seeing Itoje leading the England lineout sessions. “When I normally see Maro, it’s fun,” Obano said. “I don’t really see him in his authoritative role, but yeah, that was quite cool to see.”

Asked to confirm whether he has always been head boy material, Obano convulses with laughter. “Yeah, Maro is a good….. how can I say this in a diplomatic way?” Obano said. “Maro can give the best picture to the masses, which is a skill that not many people have. Maro’s ability to project things to people and for them to see what he wants them to see is A class. That’s a skill that you have to have as a leader and you have to have as a man that people look to.”

Lesson - don't play pictionary against Mark Itoje!

[Mellsblue]

You can’t expect to be good at rap singing and drawing.

Goldie?

So basically away from the cameras Maro get's upto some shit... I wonder if that may drop as the attention (and just time) grows. How long were we told that Billy V doesn't drink, despite rumours here and there? And then the photo .

[Digby]

Billy didn't drink, and then he did

[padprop]

Played against him when I was younger, he's been the same size since 17.
