BEARDS OF THE SIX NATIONS POLL SET TO BRISTLE AGAIN
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that with what could to be the most hirsute Six Nations Rugby Championship ever underway, the Beard of the Six Nations poll is set to be launched again.
The campaigners say that the Beard of the Six Nations is not just about beards in the abstract but also crucially about the impact they make on play.
This impact of beards on the field has meant that even noted pogonophobes such as Clive Woodward who argued in 2013 on the BBC that he wouldn’t select players with beards, are now marginal voices.
The Beard Liberation Front’s long campaign against the Woodward’s of the rugby world has achieved considerable success so much so that in 2020 there are too many hirsute players to run an individual poll. This year the focus will be on the Six Nations teams
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, our panel of beard experts will be reviewing the play in each match but ultimately the team not only with the best beards, but the best beards that have the most impact on play will win
