BATH'S TREBLE GLORY HAS SCOT FIT FOR LIONS TESTS
FINN RUSSELL says Bath's run to Premiership glory has got him battle-hardened for the British and Irish Lions tour.

This year's made me a 'days of yore' bore
I VOWED that it would never happen. I was determined not to morph into a misery-guts banging on about how much better everything was in the olden days. I simply can’t stand those ancients who bleat about their blissful youth scrumping apples, being handed fragrant loaves by boys on bicycles and heavy petting in haystacks. I was confident I would never bore about growing up in 1970s suburbia because, in reality, power cuts and litter strikes were a big fat drag, telly was a test card for interminable hours and when Bouquet Of Barbed Wire came on, my parents wouldn’t even let me watch it.
