    Former All Black great (as a player anyway) John Kirwan shows once again that magnificent proficiency on the playing field is no guarantee against being a knob.

    Reacting to a Brian O'Driscoll tweet about a citing incident in a recent Bledisloe Cup game he refers to THAT incident from 2005. O'Driscoll doesn't talk about it any more but Kiwis can't seem to hear his name without whinging that it's time for him to move on.

    Here's the clip in question, if you could be bothered.

    JK has a point though.
    Bodster was a good player and all, but he really needs to give up bringing banging on about that tackle all the time like that. Retired for years now and still making a song and dance about it. Tweets here, interviews there, commentating on other matches etc. OK, injured, maybe the tackle was dodgy, and it was a pity to miss the rest of the tour, but give it a rest now.
    Yawn.
