As England’s failed rugby stars make the long journey home there are even more terrible headlines in Monday's newspapers about their bad behaviour.
The 2011 world cup will be remembered by most for a series of off the pitch disasters which came to dominate the competition in New Zealand.
Here’s five of the worst headline stories which will be remembered:
When The Sun newspaper splashed a load of pictures taken from Facebook across its pages it became obvious that what happened on the pitch was probably not going to be of much significance.
And if Mike Tindall didn’t know it before, he certainly does now - when you’re married to a royal you’re always going to be tabloid gold.
Pictures showed Tindall and fellow players enjoying – a bit too much – a night out in Queenstown after their first game win. Unfortunately for England, this story would run and run.
England rugby manager Martin Johnson was forced into a difficult public telling off of three players after they made lecherous remarks to a woman hotel worker.
The headlines were dominated by the comments made by James Haskell, 26, Dylan Hartley, 25, and Chris Ashton, 24 to Annabel Newton. She said she was left in tears after they used a stolen walkie-talkie to make crude sexual.
England rugby star Mike Tindall faced fresh questions after admitting that he lied about his boozy night out in New Zealand.
Although he insisted that he went back to his hotel alone after CCTV images showed him flirting with a young woman in the Altitude bar in Queenstown, an investigation forced him to admit that they continued their night at another bar, reports said.
The Mail on Sunday said it had been shown pictures of the blonde woman captured on CCTV in Cowboys bar, where she spent an additional hour with Mike Tindall.
It’s not in the same league as dwarf throwing – but for rugby pureists, it’s just as bad.
Coach Johnson was forced to apologies, yet again, after his kicking coach confessed to deliberately supplying Jonny Wilkinson with his favourite balls to kick conversions.
To the untrained eye, this doesn’t seem so controversial, but it added to the swell of bad feeling and headlines surrounding the England team.
The icing on the cake was Sunday’s story when Manu Tuilagi was fined £3,000 for jumping off a ferry as it arrived in dock in Auckland.
Police held the Samoan-born player which left England with further questions to answer about what on earth was going on.
