Full scrum from the same family

That's impressive and a sweet story, but I'm also taken aback by the fact the the man has 15 children in total. His poor wife!

She must enjoy it, there's no way you can accidentally get knocked up fifteen times.

Great story, shagger there is living the dream. Great grassroots stuff and good to see the sport in the news for all the right reasons.

Great story!!
However, if each of the fifteen children are as active as their parents, there'd be 225 grandchildren! Imagine them all coming for Sunday lunch!

You'd hope they'd have good communication at the line-out

Mind, looking at the picture, they're all the same middling height and stocky build, so I can't imagine their lineout was any great shakes.

They won 65-7
Although, it was also 3rd XV, and you have to suspect some of the kids are current 1st XV player, and some probably ex-1st XV players (2 of the kids in their 30s)
