Did that guy smash brian o drisscoll in the face to try and get him out of the game against france ?

Question

are the smelly french trying to cheat already ?

Answer 1

There were a lot punches thrown in that game, (four or five yellow cards) BOD was not the only one to get hit. And . . . he was actually hit by a New Zealander - Mikaera Tewhata playing for a French club team.

Tewhata claims that he "lashed" out and didn't know that it was O'Driscoll he had hit.

Edit: Bazzy - Tana is no thug - sure the tackle looked bad slowed down and replayed 100 times - fact is that Tana's team went on to thump the living be-jesus out of the lions - they would have done the same if BOD hadn't been injured - Umanga is a class act he didn't have to and has never had to take anyone out of the game. If BOD was the same size as Shane Horgan then maybe he wouldn't have been injured - he is a midget of a man compared to most international centers . Yannick Jauzion will run around and over him when Ireland meet France in the pools.

Answer 2

I think that guy hit BOD because hes a thug who deserves to be banned for at least a year

as to why it happens to BOD....

he is generally regarded as the best outside centre in world rugby and along with the likes of McCaw would be on most peoples world XV

he is one of those players who makes opposition centres look bad so they take him out of the game... simply as that

Umaga and Mealamu (more thugs) nearly ended his career back in 05

rugby is a tough enough sport without adding mindless violence to the equation

Answer 3

What is it about O'Driscoll that annoys the living h**l out of opposition players? Remember the Lions Tour of NZ when they tried to kill him as soon as the first game started? Must me pheromones or something......

Answer 4

Oh please like the song said cry me a river.  He's an Irish man aren't they supposed to be tough in that part of the World.  Yes.  He's giving his countrymen a bad name.  Rugby's a tough game and **** happens.

Answer 5

He doesn't always whine,the only time he has was when Tama spear tackled him on the Lions tour.Because he thought that was malicious.

And in Wayne Smith's biography(All-Black attacking coach) he admits that more than a hint was given to Umaga to take the Lions captain out.Obviously not to the extend that was done but none the less.

All-Blacks for 2007!!!

Answer 6

Nope... are you Brian O'Driscoll?  He always whines for years after he gets hit... and years is not an exaggeration.

Answer 7

Bru, bod got hit in the face so hard that he broke his sinus. dont f***ing tell him to stop whining, youd probably go crying to your mummy if someone decked you that hard.

Answer 8

That guy is not the first, and will not be the last, player who wants to smash BOD. Players who get in your face tend to bring out that kind of reaction from opponents. So to answer your question, no the "smelly french" are not trying to cheat already - they were just reacting in a way any player would react.
