    Fair enough. I guess I got swayed by the fact that the first two posters referred to Cav (within the context of that quote) as pleasing/a legend.

    Maybe intolerance to stupid questions from journos isn't seen by everyone as a bad thing :wink:

    I was at Lansdowne road stadium last summer, they have two side-by-side pools in the home changing rooms, they fill one with hot water and one with cold water, and the players go from hot to cold and back again several times after a match, they think it speeds up recovery a lot.
    I think that it is ideal to go either very warm or very cold straight after exercise to aid recovery (admittedly, I saw this on the Eddie Izzard running marathons back to back programme, but he seemed to be advised by a proper sports scientist). That would be bloody hilarious - a load of bath tubs full of ice outside team buses at the end of stages....

    Now we know why Ireland keep getting so many injury problems... they keep slipping on the wet tiles jumping in and out of the bath...
