Rugby’s biggest wind-up merchant Nic White ready to bash and bruise the Lions
Australia's Nic White: “I am a little bit lippy, but it is part of the game."
It was no less a figure than former England head coach Eddie Jones who labelled Nic White as “the biggest niggler of all time” during the 2022 series against the Wallabies. Irony, at this point, keeled over in shock.
Nevertheless, the 35-year-old Australian scrum-half does have a well-worn reputation for sledging and getting under his opponents’ skin. Look him up on YouTube and the first result is “6 minutes of Nic White being a s***house” while Reddit threads are devoted to whether he wears the crown of rugby’s biggest wind-up merchant.
