Bournemouth defender Tyrone Mings was evidently chuffed to receive a signed British and Irish Lions shirt from Anthony Watson; enough to post a picture of it on his official Twitter page.

But in doing so he set the heroic wing up for a verbal drubbing from his team-mates after fellow Lions star Jack Nowell noticed a rather obvious grammatical error in an otherwise touching message.

The message read: 'Ty, Keep hustling brother, be persistent. Your [sic] the man bro.'

Nowell quickly called out Watson for using 'Your' instead of the grammatically correct 'You're' in his message, taking to Twitter to make sure rugby fans across the world saw it as well.
