Rumours about him playing away for years, surprised he turned up so pished he got locked up for a night though. Breach of the peace and a fine for first offence I'll bet.

His NYE allegedly involved him getting in an argument with the World's Sexiest Jockey then a fistfight with his immediate family where he accidentally punched his mother. His Dad and brothers then laid him out; he ran away to gatecrash a nearby party.

Must be hard after professional sports to reintegrate, but mibbes lay off the sauce for a while

Apparently he's George Best's cousin? Heard that the other day and it explains all the womanising.

What other rumours have their been lol?

I've missed this over the years (though been aware of it recently).

I heard the rumours of being a naughty top shagger, but that not withstanding I thought he was an alright bloke. Is he just an all round twat then?

Don't feel bad about ripping on his pretty boy haricut now. (Which I could probably do with myself).

Actually I just seen his hair again. I'd rather be bald than have a man bun.

Transplants alright though.

There are a lot unfortunately. The two big ones would be that he's got a problem with the nose beers and that his retirement pre-world cup last year was due to his antics the Common Riding event in the Borders.

Any more info on what happened? Why would it make him retire from rugby?

Search Stuart Hogg on reddit /r/rugbyunion and you will get more details/stories. I'm the same age as him, living in Edinburgh, so sometimes stories can land on my whatsapp a wee bit before they appear online but they all appear online after a few weeks.

I've no interest in opening Reddit.

I'd imagine that other blogs/posts will have the stories. They seem to propagate from the reddit rumour mill though.

Quote by the Mail

"It is said that Hogg called time on his rugby career in order to spend more time with his family."

I can't speak! I wish I didn't read that while eating, I laughed so much I almost threw up.
