“He never did that with me” – Nigel Owens slams Owen Farrell-like behaviour in rugby

When discussing the WORST players to referee, Owens said: ““Definitely Austin Healey. I only caught him towards the end of his career, thankfully.

“A wonderfully talented player and a very good pundit now, but he always had plenty say and quickly assumed I didn’t like him. He’s actually blocked me on Twitter, but I don’t think I’m the only one.”
