    I don't know if this is commen knowledge but during the summer Chabal was in Galway with his french club to play Connacht. That night both teams went out, not together. Connacht were in Halo nightclub and when the french team tried to get in they were stopped because the bouncers thought a fight would break out. Chabal and the team got really pissed off and started arguing with the bouncers, so they closed the doors. Chabal then charged the doors and knocked them off their hindges and these doors are damn big. Kinda suprised I did'nt hear more about it.

    Hmm, funny alright, seeing as he plays for Sale (an English team) and they weren't over in Connacht this summer at all.
    :rolleyes:

    Got this from Wikipedia it may explain a lot.
    "Chabal" is the gallicizing of Occitan chaval for horse

    He always looked like one to me with that hair.

    I heard his pre-match routine includes the eating of a small child !

    Has to be completely horse **** (or chabal **** :D ) No professional rugby player would risk massive injury no matter how drunk by doing something like that!

    I once got Chabal's autograph in a bar in Manchester (used to live there). He was a cool guy and if you think he looks big on TV you want to be 2 feet infront of him having a chat. You wouldn't want to be spilling his pint anyway.

    :eek:

    There's no possible reason for anyone to want to go the Warwick on a Saturday night. It was one of the clubs in town.
