The brutal moment when Saracens made Gavin Henson feel embarrassed
With it being Wales versus England week in Cardiff, Gavin Henson, the penalty hero of the 2005 Six Nations encounter, was always going to crop up in the conversation somewhere along the line. That appearance has happened in The Times where the current owner of The Fox pub in St Brides Major near Bridgend regaled reporter Owen Slot with numerous entertaining memories from a career that was lived out in media headlines
There were 33 Wales caps between 2001 and 2011, including two Grand Slam wins, and a single cap on the 2005 British and Irish Lions tour, but there were also many club pitstops and his recollection of his short-lived time at Saracens stood out in his latest rollicking interview.
Henson only ever played three times for the London club he signed for in the 2010/11 season after taking a break from the game. It didn’t go well and he was to finish that comeback season at Toulon before heading to the World Cup in New Zealand with Wales.
