"We've had quite a few good bus journeys home together, after games, and have enjoyed it," says Lozowski. "It does bring you together - all those memories. "I know Exeter would have quite a few long bus journeys, heading all the way down to the [South] coast. Maybe that is part of their culture, but Jack has taken himself away from it. He could be down the back of the bus, on his Game Boy or something. It must be difficult to say no, having won a game and heading back together, but I still feel [drinking together] is something that will stick around."[caption id="attachment_242969" align="aligncenter" width="640"]

"You do have to pick your moments, but you do encourage those nights out, were you let loose, have a bit of craic together and form those bonds. That's how you often end with guys that are friends for life. You learn about their characters, and have a bit of craic."We bet O'Brien and Goode would never have seen themselves as the rugby veterans calling in the old traditions to be preserved. All in moderation, folks. WATCH THAT FULL EPISODE HERE:
