The Boys from Richmond, a Master Race

The Boys from Richmond, a Master Race

A word of warning for anyone wanting their seven year old boy to play rugby for a junior team in south-west London. Your son may come up against an opposing side filled with the best rugby genes imaginable! Lawrence Dallaglio was telling me at the launch of his pasta saucehow there's nothing he likes better than to go down to Richmond and watch his seven-year-old, Enzo, play for the local junior team. He is often accompanied, too, by a couple of friends whose sons play in the same team, namely Michael Lynagh and Jason Leonard. So, that's the sons of two of the greatest ever England rugby players, and a son of a former Wallaby who is in the top five all time points scorers in test match rugby - all three, of course, World Cup winners. The teamsheet alone will intimidate, and I wouldn't fancy being their coach, nor the match referee, either, with that trio standing on the touchline.
