- On being awarded the MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) in June 2002: I am absolutely delighted and privileged, and somewhat surprised, to be given this award. Being part of English Rugby for 12 years I have seen many changes to the game and I am still honored to be part of it. I would like to thank everybody for their support over the years from grass roots rugby right up to the international game.
- On receiving the MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) at Buckingham Palace in November 2002: With these ears the Queen must have known I play rugby.
