WATCH: England winger Jonny May’s attempts at scrummaging are a sensation

Jonny May wasn't cut out for this craic.

He was selected by Eddie Jones to bring pace and cutting edge to the English backline. Argentina were in town and these boys, thanks to The Rugby Championship, know how to cut loose. They like to cut loose. England's task of shutting the Pumas down was made even harder when Elliot Daly was sent off for tackling flanker Leonardo Senatore in the air. Down to 14 men, England had to dig very deep to get the result. May made one try-saving tackle and nabbed himself a score in the second half in England's 27-14 win. What many may have missed, though, was the Gloucester wingers attempts to help out when England copped a yellow card and were down to 13 men. A man short for the scrum, May gave this flanker business a pop and packed down. Well, he tried to. The video was shared on Sunday afternoon and quickly caught online fire. https://twitter.com/DanielBroady1/status/802989011270848513 https://twitter.com/farez104/status/803136686762774528 https://twitter.com/Mikes_Brother/status/803129745411948544 https://twitter.com/HannahCollins87/status/803129187569635328 https://twitter.com/talkMacca/status/803149717517414400 Dick Clerkin makes his GAA Hour debut to talk about a wonderful career and argue passionately with Colm Parkinson over Sky Sports GAA.
