Re: Manu Tuilagi Out of RWC
Personally never rated above average and he only makes that playing against smaller weak tackling centres

Re: Manu Tuilagi Out of RWC
I never really liked Tuilagi as a player or as a human being before this. I like him even less now and have absolutely no respect for him.
The response from most of the Tigers supporters on their forum is pretty balanced to be fair but there are one or two trotting out the 'boys will be boys' argument and saying that it can't have been that serious if he was only fined. I suspect, however, that the punishment was not more severe because the taxi driver and 2 female officers were not injured.
The playing ban mentioned only seems to apply to England. It will be very interesting to see what Tigers do- I believe their reputation as a club is on the line a little.

Re: Manu Tuilagi Out of RWC
Tuilagi is a decent enough player . I feel he suffers lot of enmity because he is a) Englash and b) not white enough. He was a bit of a bieber on his night out but "pushed" a couple of WPCs "quite hard" doesn't make him Fred West

He's a better than average bosh-merchant but not that good a player.
He is disliked by many English fans as well and I've never heard race come into it.
Nobody compared him to Fred West but pushing WPCs is unacceptable and at the very least means he is a tw@t.

Fifth post, and this is what you're giving us? Do better.

Pushing two female police officers in the chest when you are a 110kg conditioned athlete is not something to treat lightly. He is benches around 400 lbs or so I'm told.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?

Let's bring a sense of perspective here WW, Manu Tuilagi is not a dirtbag, he has just won first prize:Wee Woman wrote:Seriously?

Strike me dead John, what a geezer.
What a dirtbag, he deserves his ban.
Pardon my French but entirely appropriate.

Re: Manu Tuilagi Out of RWC
I wonder what we (ulster fans) would say if one of our players assaulted a police officer while drunk? Just wondering that's all.
