He used to go around clucking and thought this chicken demon was inside him. I don’t know whether it was an act or true — with Jonny you just never know.”
The England speedster has since gone onto respond to the story.
“It’s a bit silly isn’t it? I don’t think at any stage that has happened,” revealed May to the Guardian, blushing ever so slightly.
4. Try of the year
May was awarded the Try of the Year at the Aviva Premiership Rugby Awards for his sensational solo score against Harlequins in February, 2012.
5. Hobbies
He became addicted to colouring books during his long lay-off with a serious knee injury last year.
