A prerequisite of being a Grand Slam winning prop and a Champion Shot-put competitor is considerable strength and London Irish’s former Irish international prop Tom Court blew away BT Sports Smash-o-meter record this week.

Previously, Adam Jones held the record at 88, but the bespectacled Court blew away the Welshman’s record, measuring 101 on the Smash-o-meter.

Despite not converting the score, Adam Jones’ recent attempted drop goal against Munster may well go down in Rugby folklore.

So, it is no surprise that the legendary former Wales, British & Irish Lions and Ospreys, tight-head prop decided to exhibit to the world his drop kicking prowess and put on a veritable drop goal masterclass.

I don’t know about you, but this is a truly special early Christmas present.

Adam Jones will not be joining London Welsh

Contrary to media conjecture, Adam Jones will not be joining big spending newly promoted Premiership Side London Welsh, according to Big Red Management, the agency firm that represents the former Ospreys’ tight-head.

After being released by the Ospreys, Jones-who is rightly regarded as one of the worlds foremost tight-heads- has been linked with a number of clubs, including Toulon, and London Welsh’s coach, Justin Burnell, added to the speculation by expressing his interest in the former Lion.

However, the 33 year won’t be joining Piri Weepu at the Kassam Stadium and his future will become clearer in the coming days, read a tweet on Big Red’s official Twitter feed.
