Jonny Mays scrummaging days may be over, but Mike Brown insists Englands puppy-dog wing can continue vanishing for toilet breaks during training if he keeps scoring.Mays comical attempts to bind on to a scrum against Argentina is the latest quirky incident to have entertained his teammates, while Eddie Jones has said of the Gloucester back: Id love to spend one day inside his head, it would be absolutely fascinating.Brown knows that for all the eccentricities of the squads fastest player, he remains a deadly finisher who has crossed twice in two appearances this autumn and is set to start against Australia at Twickenham in Saturdays climax to the series.Jonny seems to disappear from training every now and then to go to the toilet, Brown said.Eddie turns around and goes where the effing hell has Jonny gone? And Jonny just trots back in like nothings going on. So Eddies like what the hell are you doing?.Hes like...whats the best way to describe it...hes like a puppy! Hes really enthusiastic, bounding around desperate to show his energy and go to the toilet!He has so much energy and enthusiasm, so we have to keep him on a tight leash sometimes. And give him direction -- well thats what I end up doing anyway.But hes a brilliant player. With ball in hand he can finish tries that others cant. Hes electric running-wise. He also listens, which is a good thing!I dont think he knows whats going on half the time, so who knows whats going on in his head? Hes an interesting character, one that Ill probably never experience again.Its great that you play in a sport with so many different characters, like Jonny. He can be frustrating at times, but hes a good bloke to have around.Fourteen-man England needed May to join a scrum as an openside flanker in the final quarter of Saturdays 27-14 defeat of Argentina.Instead of taking his place in the back row, however, he placed his head between Mako Vunipolas legs and then grabbed the loosehead props knee and shin in his search for stability.Jonnys days as a flanker are definitely numbered! He couldnt have watched much rugby or scrums in a rugby game to bind the way he was binding. Thats just Jonny! he said.Interesting technique, I dont think itll be one that theyll be using going forward, but it made us laugh.I want to know who actually put him on in the scrum in the first place because hed be the last person Id put there. Thats who needs to answer some questions.Mays scrummaging technique has entertained the squad and scrum-half Ben Youngs has a simple message for the 26-year-old -- get the ball, mate, and run!.Unbelievable isnt it? Whats he doing? Its madness! He needs to get on the scrum machine. Poor old Mako. Jonnys taken a bit of heat, Youngs said.Its amazing that hes played rugby all his life but he doesnt know where his heads supposed to go when he plays seven. Thats Jonny for you.Scrummagings not his forte, but give him the ball on the edge of the pitch and hell finish for you. If he keeps doing that, Im sure the front-row will forgive him.Jonnys such a gifted athlete in terms of his speed. The ground he can cover in such a short space of time is incredible.You just dont want him to overthink things too much -- just give him the ball and let him do his thing. Get the ball, mate, and run. Vapormax Chinese New Year . The International Olympic Committee released the official list of bid cities on Friday after the deadline for applications had passed.

Smith realized how easily basketball can be taken from him, and he wasnt going to take his place in the NBA for granted anymore. NEW YORK -- With one week left in the WNBA season, the playoff picture has become a bit clearer. At least as far as who will be playing in the postseason.Where teams will be seeded, thats still is a bit blurry after the top three.Chicago, Indiana, Atlanta and Seattle all clinched playoff spots Sunday leaving only one berth undetermined.It means a great deal especially because we got eliminated in the first round last year and that has been in the back of our heads, and we really want to make an impact this year in the playoffs, Chicago guard Cappie Pondexter said.The Sky won without star Elena Delle Donne, who has been sidelined with a thumb injury the past two games.Phoenix holds a two-game lead on Washington for the final spot and the Mercury need just one win or a loss by the Mystics to secure a place in the postseason. Atlanta clinched a spot despite losing to the Mercury on Sunday.Our season has been one of ups and downs. I thought we started the season off right and then we went on a six-game slide, but I think weve done a good job of recuperating and getting into this position, Dream coach Michael Cooper said. Our goal right now to finish out the last three games is to get that fourth playoff spot and kind of stay there, because again, we could use the rest. But whatever the basketball gods have for us, were ready, committed, and were going to make a good run.Atlanta, Chicago and Indiana are tied for fourth. Whichever team finishes in that spot will get a first-round bye.The Fever reached the postseason for the 12th straight yeaar.ddddddddddddIts the third longest active streak in American professional sports. While it seems that Indiana is a lock to make the playoffs every year, the Storm qualified for the postseason for the first time since 2013.It feels good. You can feel in the locker room there already is a bit of a buzz, Storm guard Sue Bird said. Its not easy at times to make the playoffs in this league and for awhile, I think our franchise even took it for granted because making the playoffs was the expectation. To not get in there the last couple of years and to finally get back feels really good.While fourth through eighth is still to be determined, the top three seeds are set. Minnesota clinched home-court advantage throughout the playoffs with a victory over San Antonio and a loss by Los Angeles to Seattle.We are pleased to have finished No. 1 overall in this very tough and balanced league, Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve said. Our success this season is a testament to our teams strong leadership as well as the selfless nature of every single one of our players. Together we have been able to overcome the many challenges of the regular season. Ultimately, while pleased, we also know we have work to do to find success in the playoffs.Los Angeles will be the No. 2 seed and New York the 3. With the new playoff format, the Lynx and Sparks have byes until the semifinals.---Follow Doug on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/dougfeinberg ' ' '
