Ever wanted to find out what fruit Gloucester’s James Forrester would be if he had to? Or has not knowing how many profiteroles he could eat in one sitting kept you awake at night? The answer to both is probably ‘no’, but we asked him anyway, along with several other random, pointless questions…
Q. If you were a Transformer, would you be an Autobot or Decepticon?
A. Definitely Decepticon.
Q. If not a rugby player, what would you be?
A. I am not sure if I would have made it, but probably a vet.
Q. What’s the most bizarre team talk you’ve ever had?
A. Probably the ones when I was at school. The captain was a good friend of mine and a very passionate speaker but he said the same thing every time: ‘If not you, if not now, then who?’ It was okay for the first couple of times but then got a bit tedious.
Q. Do you believe in dinosaurs?
A. Yes.
Q. If you could be a super hero, who would you be?
A. I think I would have to be a Spider-Pig – a pig that could climb walls like the one in The Simpsons’ movie.
Q. Who thinks he’s the best player at your club?
A. Obviously Fozzy (Mark Foster).
Q. What’s the best wind up ever played by a team-mate?
A. Basically, anything involving Andy Hazell. After my first few games at the club he rang me up and pretended to be from the local paper and asked me my favourite sexual position!
Q. Which team-mate would you least like to fight?
A. It would have to be Mark Cornwell – I am not sure if I could get close enough because of his halitosis.
Q. What’s the best bit of free stash you have ever been given?
A. Probably a mobile phone – I have had a few from O2.
Q. What’s your favourite jam flavour?
A. I am going to play this one safe – strawberry.
Q. If you had to be a fruit, what type of fruit would you be?
A. Cucumber.
Q. Do you like Scotch eggs and what is your method for eating them?
A. No, I don’t eat them.
Q. How many profiteroles do you think you could eat in one sitting?
A. At least 16 I reckon.
Q. How many donuts could you get through?
A. 12
Q. Do the girls like a rugby player?
A. Obviously.
Q. What do you really think of Bath?
A. Playing at the Rec is always the highlight of my season.
