As jgriffin rightly mentions Borthwick's sporting demeanour from last weekend, this BBC article also commends him:-

It is just a great shame that the same "sporting demeanour" is so rarely present on this forum.

And with that, I sign off.

The revenue difference between the two sides from attendance will be mitigated by the revenue Saracens get from putting a sponsor's name on their stadium as being discussed on another thread. Incidentally, does anybody know how many of the free season tickets for children have been issued as these will count in the attendance, whether used or not.

A good article - which in truth has changed my view of him. However he was never an England captain he just seemed to be missing something in that respect. That said rugby would be a sad place without the likes of him.
