Caption competition No. 23 winner
British Lions assistant coach Andy Robinson
All eyes were on Andy Robinson at a recent press conference as the British Lions prepare for this year's eagerly awaited tour of Australia.

The assistant coach was caught on camera, pulling what can only be described as a very peculiar face.

Was this "face" a new ploy to intimidate the Aussies or a very bad impression of Prince Charles?

Well, BBC Sport Online asked you to come up with some witty words on why Andy Robinson was pulling this face.

As usual some of you made us laugh, while others made us cringe!

Many of you thought he was impersonating Prince Charles, while others referred to bathroom activity, which for reasons of decency we could not publish!

In the end we gave it to Bart from England who sent in this caption;

"Be afraid, be very afraid grrrrrrrrr"

Congratulations Bart, your BBC Sport Online goodie bag is winging its way to you.

Well done to everyone else who entered, and don't forget there will be a new caption competition soon.


Here's a selection of the best of the rest.
