Welsh rugby presenter Sarra Elgan Easterby was on the receiving end of possibly Joe Marler's strangest interview yet.
The England and Harlequins prop was in typically eccentric mood during the post-match interview with BT Sport following Quins' 19-13 win over Bath on Friday night.
At one stage the interviewer asked Marler: "I feel like we always big up Quins' attacking flair and we never give you guys the glory up front. The scrummaging was good tonight, especially in those tight jerseys you have been complaining about!" The question related to comments made by Marler earlier in the week when he revealed he was not a fan of the club's super tight playing shirt and preferred to wear the ones sold to supporters in the club shop.
However, Marler didn't seem hugely impressed with the question, saying: "I haven't been complaining about them. I was asked a question and I gave my answer. I don't complain about them. I don't know what this is."

As always, the prop's unique sense of humour is likely to have been a factor in the awkward interview, during which he went on to describe his man-of-the-match award as "a fraud" because he was the only player who would talk in front of TV cameras.
He then asked the Welsh presenter: "Why is it Sarra and not Sarah?"
Elgan Easterby replied: "Well, because Sarra's my name!"
Marler said: "Oh!"
The England international then spoke of wanting to finish in the top two of the Gallagher Premiership to secure a home semi-final, loudly and repeatedly declaring: "We want a home semi. A home semi. We want that semi!"
