Kyle Sinckler plans to take the World Cup by storm but will not feel he has truly made it until he draws close to becoming a Test centurion.<\/p>\nKyle Sinckler plans to take the World Cup by storm but will not feel he has truly made it until he draws close to becoming a Test centurion.<\/p>\n
The England prop played an instrumental role as Ireland were dismantled 57-15 at Twickenham on Saturday in a spectacularly one-sided warm-up Test that signaled Eddie Jones\u2019 men will be genuine contenders in Japan.<\/p>\n
Sinckler will be involved in every match of the tournament as one of only two tightheads selected by Eddie Jones and he will empty the tanks in the hope of making a lasting impression.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy main thing is consistency. I\u2019ve 24 caps but want to get 80, that\u2019s when I will have established myself,\u201d the Maximuscle ambassador said.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo get that I\u2019ve got to be consistent. I want to keep pushing myself and fulfill my potential. I want to be able to showcase my talents at the World Cup.<\/p>\n
\u201cI give it everything when I\u2019m on the field and lay it all on the line every time.\u201d<\/p>\n
It is a Welshman, however, who has emerged as one of the most significant influences on Sinckler\u2019s career.<\/p>\n
Former Lions prop Adam Jones works closely with the 26-year-old at Harlequins and among the areas focused on has been ensuring his eagerness does not escalate into fury.<\/p>\n
Sinckler\u2019s belligerence on the pitch is one of his greatest attributes, but it is also a characteristic that needs channeling.<\/p>\n
\u201cAdam came to Harlequins four years ago and I was just getting some game time so I was thinking \u2018are they going to get rid of me?\u2019 Sinckler said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe first day he came in he knew my name and said \u2018I\u2019m here to help you\u2019, and it was a wow moment \u2013 this was Adam Jones.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe had a massive impact, I learnt so much from him about pure scrummaging and what works best for me and my technique.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe has a similar body shape to me so what normally worked for him would work for me and his advice on a daily basis was invaluable.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust shadowing him for a couple of years and watching the way he went about his business such as preparing for a game was priceless.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s something I took on board and work on all the time in my game from how I train, to controlling my passion.<\/p>\n
\u201cManaging this comes from experience and the main thing for me is not to play a game on a Saturday over a thousand times in my head during the week. I\u2019ve learned to build myself towards the game.<\/p>\n
\u201cMonday and Tuesday you should be chilled out, Wednesday you pick up a bit because it\u2019s a hard training session, Thursday off and Friday you start building up.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhereas when I was younger I\u2019d be ready for the game on a Sunday night and I\u2019d burnout because there was another week of preparation to go.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019d have too much pent up energy and be mentally tired. As you get older you learn you don\u2019t need to get nervous.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow I can control this side of my game much more knowing if I\u2019ve prepared well then I\u2019ve nothing to be nervous about.<\/p>\n
\u201cI pride myself on my preparation and the game is the fun bit.\u201d<\/p>\n
