James Lawton compares the ailing career of Gavin Henson to one of the great hellraisers, and achievers, Ian Botham, in The Independent.
"It is way too late for Gazza, probably for Gavin Henson and possibly even Danny Cipriani, who is a mere 23 years old.
"However, for most anyone else involved in the celebrity-style risking of exceptional talent there is something they might do which could prove extremely helpful.
"They could get hold of a new book that quite harrowingly at times explores the extraordinary achievements of arguably one of the three or four most charismatic figures ever to explode across the face of British sport."
