Porter and his cauliflower ears could be quote of the Lions tour so far
If there was a competition for the most quotable Lion then Pierre Schoeman with his chat about Vikings, gladiators, bison and the secret world of the prop forward would be a landslide in terms of single best quote of the tour so far, his fellow loosehead Andrew Porter is running him close. What is it about all these charismatic props?In the aftermath of the Lions' win over the Queensland Reds in Brisbane, Porter spoke about his cauliflower ears - "nothing I can do about them now, they're too far gone" he said about possible surgery later in life - while also speaking about whether his newborn son might one day become a prop."He's already getting huge, but I'm not sure my wife would want him being a prop," said Porter, before adding: "Looking at my ears, he's lucky he didn't come out with them."Quite an image, that.
