Three bloody roles, Scrum has, and only three. If you can’t get that right, don’t call it Scrum, OK?
There was no way I was going to end up in the scrum when I came to rugby - you know, waste my pretty looks.
It's good if people see me as a running nine but I wanted to be viewed as an all-round scrum-half, who can do anything at any time.
When you're a player and you win the World Cup and other titles you don't get the chance to enjoy the moment because of the media scrum. You end up getting tired of it. But when the years go by and you look back on it all, then you understand just what it is that you achieved, that we achieved.
One day, if I feel the fear of putting my head in the middle of some battle or scrum, then I stop.
I estimate that 75% of those organizations using Scrum will not succeed in getting the benefits that they hope for from it.
Scrum is like your mother-in-law, it points out ALL your faults.

Growing up at school I played a lot of fly-half and a lot of scrum-half, I thought I had a good boot but never really used it as much as I do now.
I do my own analysis on the teams I am refereeing. I will know some of the personalities, the players who could be difficult customers in a scrum situation, the ones I am going to have to really work hard on early in the game to get what I want.
I know my dad would have loved me to have played rugby. He was a No. 8. I started off playing centre and ended up playing at the back of the scrum, No. 8 as well, just picking it up and running with it.
I don't say anything. One of the reporters asked me in the scrum in there, and I said, no, I didn't say anything to anybody. I can only hurt them right now. I cannot help them.
