About twelve or so years ago Rhinos were playing at Perpignan. Me and my late missus were at the ground early to get a parking place etc ( she was handicapped). The players had just arrived at the Gilbert Brutus and were strolling around the pitch. A fresh faced Ryan emerged from the tunnel . Ryan had bleached his hair white and my missus, not being the shy type, called out to Ryan and said “hey, Ryan your hair looks silly that colour !” To which he replied rather embarassing,y. “Blimey, you sound just like my mum “
Met him a few times after that before she passed away and he seemed a nice guy.
