Saints team-mates: Sam Dickinson

Here, the No.8, who played a key role in the double-winning side of 2013/14, gives us his comedic take on his Saints team-mates...

Best player you played with?

A few stand out; George North, Louis Picamoles, Courtney Lawes but: Kahn Fotuali’i - great skill-set and vision around the ruck, knowledge of the game, combined with being the most physical No.9. Like having an extra openside at times.

Toughest player you played with?

Teimana Harrison - just a tough player, never backs down and always punches above his weight.

Who was the most skilful?

Stephen Myler - when he turns it on he has a ridiculous skill-set and can do things nobody else can.

Who was the kitman’s nightmare?

Paul Hill’s first mention, stains galore.

Who was the best dancer?

Jamie Elliott - quiet persona, but always had a move when the right tune came on.

Who was the worst dresser?

Paul Hill - yet to understand what dressing well or even what coordinated means.

Who was the biggest drinker?

Tom Stephenson - can put it away for a skinny posh kid.

Who had the worst chat?

Howard Packman - good at starting chat, not great at finishing it. Slow, stumbling comebacks are his speciality.

Who was Mr Vain?

Luther Burrell - put a lot of time and effort into looking good.

Who had the best hairstyle?

Not Tom Kessell. James Wilson can have this one for clinging on the longest.

Who was the grumpiest?

Grumpiness was a group activity, many a sappuccino shared, special mentions to Tom Wood, Stephen Myler, Gareth Denman and Christian Day.

Who was the best singer?

Ben Foden - gave one great performance on TV and won us all over and made us forget about the cringier renditions.

Who was the leader?

Dylan Hartley - having played with a lot of players through the years, rarely do individuals stand out as someone you don’t just want to play with, but to play for.

Who was the coach’s favourite?

Samu Manoa - loved by everyone in The Shire, players, fans and coaches alike.
