England forward accused of ‘vaping’ before South Africa clash

An England forward has been accused of ‘vaping in the tunnel as the starting team ran out onto the pitch for their clash with South Africa on Saturday.

One fan wrote: “Was Will Stuart puffing on a vape in the tunnel before they walked out?!?”

Another commented: “Was Will Stuart puffing a vape then?”

A third fan commented: “Could be oxygen … they do come in those small vape style units now (see Gareth Anscombe puffing on one as he left the field on Saturday).”

Will Stuart vaping? Surely not:

Stuart, who scored a brace of tries against the All Blacks a week prior, came off the bench again but this time suffered a nasty looking injury.

One fan wrote: “Hope the Will Stuart injury is not as grim as it looks – having such a bad run of injuries”



A second commented: “Noooooooo not Will Stuart! Fingers crossed it isn’t as bad as it looks:

“That was horrible. Hoping Will Stuart is okay,” said a third.

A fourth added: “Stuart was screaming in pain. Grim.”

RUCK will post an update as soon as we learn more about Stuart’s injury.

“It’s over for him” – Five England players who flopped and who should replace them for the Six Nations

#1. Mako Vunipola

Planet Rugby 3/10: “As expected, Frans Malherbe gave him an absolute going over in the set-piece.”

Telegraph 4/10: “Penalised at the first scrum for pushing straight down, before getting one back. Off at half-time, probably always the plan, as England turned to Genge’s dynamism to spark life into their attack.”

Mail Online 3/10: “First start for 18 months and hooked at half-time like the rest of the front row without making an impact.”

Replacement: Joe Marler
