The Irish Independent's Vincent Hogan offers his distinctive view on former England manager Martin Johnson.
"Before England mistook the Rugby World Cup for an epic stag, I never liked Martin Johnson. Now, inexplicably, I do. Just when the entire planet seems to be crashing down upon him with such sour, malignant focus, I can't see the former England captain and manager as anything but an oversized, vaguely appealing lump who thought he could control a zoo by scowling.
"If that's a crime, he's guilty. But, with Johnson, you get what it says on the tin. To the best of my knowledge, he's not a noted conversationalist. Nobody has ever gone public on him having a secret life on the Leicester stand-up circuit."
