‘Stroppy’ Jonny a hit with Boss

Jonathan Sexton’s loss to Racing Metro wasn’t easy for Leinster to absorb, but Isaac Boss still can’t help smiling every time he watches his old team-mate in action for his new Parisian employers.

The out-half’s crankiness when it comes to rugby and his quest for perfection, from himself and those around him, is well-known and Boss has been thrilled to see that continue in France.

“It’s good to see him throwing his hands up at them as well,” said the former Ulster scrum-half who has known his fair share of demanding 10s in a career that has spanned a dozen years and both hemispheres.
