Can’t a rugby international even take a nap in peace?

VIDEO: Paddy Jackson goes full David Attenborough on a snoozing Iain Henderson

We can see how long weeks in camp could get monotonous for players - even if they are playing in a Rugby World Cup.

It’s still a lot of hours cooped up in a hotel room with not much to do - you can understand why the players have to come up with ways to amuse themselves.

Dunno how pleased Iain Henderson will be with Paddy Jackson’s latest distraction though.

Jackson recorded his teammate having a post-training snooze, and then added his own commentary.

Using his best David Attenborough voice (and it’s pretty good), he describes the scene for the viewer.

“At two metres long, and over 120 kilos, Iain Henderson lies in a deep slumber after a vigourous gym session.

“I for one don’t want to be around when this beast wakes up.”

Whatever about when he woke up, I’d say Paddy needed to make himself scarce when Hendo found out the video had gone viral!
