Latest to answer our quickfire TRU Six Pack is Sale Sharks’ full-back Mike Haley.
Go-to gym exercise?
Probably Box Jumps. Get nice and explosive quickly which is great for me as a full-back.
Favourite cheat meal/resturant?
Nothing classy, just a Goodfella’s Deep Pan Pepperoni Pizza straight from Sainsburys’s. Quick and easy from the frozen section. Great for me!
The boots you wore in your last game?
I mix it up really. When I made my debut I was wearing Nike Tiempos then I have moved over Adidas RS7’s, but I have come back to Nike and I am wearing the Magista just because their light and comfy. That’s the main thing. You don’t want to have a boot which is going to take your foot off and take time for you to get used too.
Any pre-match rituals or motivational tunes?
I try to stay away from any pre-match rituals and superstitions. I have got a couple but they do my head in! If you have too many you start falling apart! I try and keep it simple by listening to music and I do get nervous for a match so I just try and keep myself as calm as I can.
A few of the lads put on their left sock on then their left boot on before their right sock and right boot so weird stuff like that! I wouldn’t dare ask them, otherwise I would start doing them myself!
Your ‘must-have’ sports supplement?
Well at Sale it’s USN, so something out of their back catalogue.
Number one beverage in your downtime?
In sport I would probably say just water! You can’t go wrong with that and a cup of tea. Simply as that. Get’s the job done!
