Legendary rugby referee Nigel Owens has ranked some of the trickier players he had to run the rule over down the years.
4 & 5. Peter Stringer & Ronan O’Gara
“Definitely! ROG and (Peter) Stringer, oh, when you had to referee the two of them together. I always got on well with the both of them though. I have a huge amount of respect for them, but they made my days hard on occasions. They were lippy in a respectful way.”
