[QUOTE="Tribesmen-ce-123, post: 526836, member: 61702"] I think it was the scenario in which the spear tackle unfolded in, that created the huge uproar over the incident. Barring the world cup, the British and Irish Lions tours are the biggest events in rugby union, and the whole rugby world was watching. Also, considering the fact that BOD had just been made captain of the Lions and was in the form of his life, he was one of the players that the spotlight was on. Anyways the tackle was so malicious and obviously pre determined ( The kiwi's didn't just spear tackle the Lions Captain, and best player on the team within the first minute of play just by chance) you can see why people would be angry over it. A BTW Bod has not mentioned that tackle in years, and has moved on from the whole incident, so this thread is repetitive and boring imo. [/QUOTE]
