With Steve Borthwick calling on him to lead the charge for the 2024 Six Nations, George continues to be an England regular despite losi

At 34, the Saracens legend has an impressive trophy cabinet with three Six Nations titles, three European Champions Cups, and a jaw-dropping six Premiership titles. Talk about a rugby career!

But while Jamie has firmly planted his roots in English rugby, his brother Gareth George has charted a completely different course.

Although Gareth didn't reach the professional heights of his sibling in England, his love for the game took him to new horizons. As a hooker like Jamie, Gareth has recently earned his spot in the Thai Rugby National team, representing them in a showdown against Singapore—qualifying through residency.

Currently, Gareth plays club rugby in the Thai Premiership for the Bangkok Bangers, living his rugby dream abroad. Who knows where this unexpected path will take him?

Leinster cruised past Glasgow, but Prendergast wasn’t driving the bus — he was holding onto the rails.

While his halfback partner ran the show, Prendergast turned in a mixed bag, missing four of five tackles and misfiring off the tee.

Not disastrous, but far from decisive. If this was his Lions audition, the casting director just shut the folder.

Steamrolled at scrum time by Thomas Clarkson, Bhatti was hooked early and looked out of sorts all game.

Double digits in defence, sure, but Glasgow needed dominance up front — and Bhatti delivered the opposite. For a Lions contender, this was nowhere near good enough.

Another limp showing under pressure.

JVP's rollercoaster continues. One minute, he’s laying on a sublime assist for Radwan, the next he’s throwing an interception straight from a scrum.

Leicester fans will remember the highs; Farrell will be stuck on the lows. An electric but erratic display. When the Lions call, they want certainty — not chaos.

Nicky Smith took him to school at scrum time — and this wasn’t a gentle lesson. Sale’s platform collapsed under the pressure, and the tighthead was at the heart of it.

Some nice footwork in open play, but that’s not why tightheads get paid. Big talent, but brutally exposed.

A long way from Lions standard on this showing.

From stunning tries to unforgettable moments—and yes, some hairstyles we’d rather forget—these players were at the heart of rugby’s golden era. If the names don’t come flooding back, it might be time to fire up YouTube and relive the magic.

Think you’ve got what it takes to ace this one? Let’s find out. Good luck!
