What.a.player. I know he was probably not the most likeable player, but dear lord he was entertaining. Talent, grit and temper. In spades.

Great Player !

listening to him on the rugby pod and listening to his book i have grown fond of Bigger.

Proper player with grit and determination.

Yeah he's grown on me massively later in his career. Such a dogged and tough player.

Watching him, Sexton and Farrell duke it out for years will probably always be my favourite period in European rugby. Could be awhile before we see another 10 with attitudes like them nevermind three.

Definitely my favorite player. Way too emotional and it held him back at times. He just gave his all every time and didn't care if he was injured or concussed.

Not gonna lie, I thought he'd already retired last year - guessing his uptick in punditry was due to injury?

Really fantastic player, as mentioned above: part of the triumvirate of arsehole 10s in the 6N
Proper competitor and fine macarena dancer, always hated playing against him and not just because he was chippy AF!

He's done well on the mic whenever I've seen him this season so imagine a future in punditry is on the cards?

Russell, biggar, section, and Farrell always made the six nations fun for a good period. The generic French fly half was usually eccentric as well.

Yup great player and tough competitor. You'd hate him as an opponent but love him on your team. Nerves of steel in big games.

I guess Toulon will be pleased they won't need to spend money on a business class flight for him to return to the UK as he can just start flapping his arms at Calais and fly himself back across the channel.
