Henson: it’s strictly rugby from now on

GAVIN HENSON did a few steps and kicks and sported his ‘‘Strictly Come Dancing’ perma-tan on the hallowed turn of Wembley yesterday afternoon but then he insisted he was back in rugby for good.

Henson will run out at football HQ for his first rugby match in 21 months for Saracens against Wasps in the Aviva Premiership on Sunday and he believes he can now play for another eight years.

And after a dancing adventure which saw him reach the semi-finals of the BBC’s hit show, the 28-year-old sees his next journey taking him to the World Cup in New Zealand with Wales next October.
