1. Une personne hors du commun - Jonny est aussi humble dans son livre qu'il paraît sur les écrans de télé ou que les rumeurs sur sa gentillesse. Pour les passionnés de rugby, ce livre aide à comprendre ce que ça veut dire pour un rugbyman professionnel une blessure. La souffrance qui va avec l'amour de ce sport. J'ai vraiment préféré la eme partie, à partir de la Coupe du Monde . C'est là qu'on s'approche de la réalité des terrains etc... Dernière remarque : on ne comprends pas beaucoup mieux qui est Jonny. Ce n'était sans doute pas son objectif en écrivant le livre. D'ailleurs, il semble tellement pudique, qu'il ne dit pas réellement pourquoi il a écrit ce livre. Dans tous les cas, il est une personne d'exception ! Merci à lui pour son œuvre.
