Ulster player is hoping it’ll be third time lucky to see him seal a berth in Ireland’s Rugby World Cup squad
Hence, the 33-year-old desperately wants a playing role in this World Cup, but without being overly distracted by such thoughts.
Rather than comparing himself to others or trying to emulate them, Herring says: “I think I’ve just got to focus on myself and what I can bring to the team and highlight those areas.” There’s also his world-class darts, which made England’s defensive lineout effort - prompting a rare crooked throw and an overthrow by Herring - even more impressive.
The scrumhalves have been practising their throwing in training, with Herring and the other hookers providing tips, and recalling his own mentors, he said: “When I was with London Irish we had good coaches over there, like Neal Hatley, and we’ve had guys come in throughout my career, but sometimes you get coaches who just try to change too much, [looking] for the perfect thing.
“Like, you could have the perfect throw that they just get up and take or the wind takes it and it gets skewed, or something like that, so it’s just being able to move on from that and nail your next few throws. That’s probably been the biggest change in my approach to it over the last few years.”
