Sporting parallels

A bizarre thought occurred to me last night watching the rugby – like France in the 2006 football World Cup, England started poorly and have then improved as the tournament has gone one. One of the keys to that improvement has been a player who was one of the two scorers the last time they won the World Cup, and now the final will be the last competitive game of his career before he retires.

Therefore, the World Cup Final will end with Jason Robinson emulating Zinedine Zidane and headbutting one of the opposition.

    Tell me which Springbok Jason Robinson could headbutt and in anyway affect his balance.
