tbf, it's not like he was hit on the side of the head-it was right on the front of his face when he was not expecting it-i dare any of you to be punched right in the face and not go down...
lee byrne is known for diving, adding the scummiest thing into professional rugby since gouging. It really is heartbreaking to see such an over reaction, however it was a card-able offense by the french payer
you can see byrne looked twice, he wasnt going to go down but when he saw the french player pick up the ball and go for the line he went to ground like a little footballer.
@JustinRSoles lol i genuinly dont remember writing that :L im a scarlet supporter being nice about an osprey (even tho he's now a former one is not in my blood lol i h8 him he's a fake tan twat
@walesxscarlets He wears fake tan. Might make him look like a knob, but it doesnt make him a bad player. Hes done a lot for Wales over the last few years. Show some respect.
@JustinRSoles lol ive called him a wanker to his face at an ospreys -scarlets derby :L but never a fake tan twat :O thats too far :L lol why are you having a go ? :L christ calm down :L
@walesxscarlets Im only having a go because I think youre being unfair to the guy. Im guessing you dont know him on a personal level, so why do you hate him? Just because of how he looks? Seems crazy to me. He has played some amazing rugby for the Ospreys, Wales and the Lions over the years. Now youre knocking him just because he wears fake tan?? I mean wtf is that all about? Are you a fan of rugby or fashion ffs..
yeah, lee byrne is a better fullback than everyone who's making bitchy little comments put together, until you play for your country at this level, shut the fuck up
I reckon Byrne's possibly milking it, but then again, I've never been smacked in the face by Damien Traille in a Grand Slam decider, so it may have hurt somewhat.
Had he not been holding the french guy's shirt he wouldn't have hit out. My kids can hit harder than that. True piece of great acting especially the staggering around after!!!
Maybe he got an eyelash in his eye? If he'd had the ball in his hands and was in the opposition 22 you could have driven a tank over him and he'd still be on his feet. Mr Byrne - your too much of a footballer and ref's need to get wise to your dramatic flair... I'd rather win a game cause I'd beaten the other team and not get some glossy cheap imitation win - bit like your fake tan I suppose...
Did anyone see the France v Ireland game yesterday? What about Lionel Nallet?...Is he a soft footballer type? Goes up in the lineout, gets and Irish hand over his shoulder, then goes down holding his neck like he hasbeen strangled. Is this football like cheating as well?....is that just funny or was he trying to get a player sin binned?
If Nallet was trying to get a player sin binned, then he's just as bad as Byrne was on Saturday.
The difference is that we saw numerous replays that suggest Nallet was impeded in the lineout and was genuinely injured.
Only some new angles of the Byrne-Godman incident will confirm one way or the other if Godman tripped him or if Byrne is simply a cheat. I wonder why we haven't seen any of that footage?
Ok, well Lee Byrne has come out (ooh err thats for another day), and said he didnt trip Godman.
Watch the video of Scrum V on the BBC website from about 09:55 mins.
Looks like a trip to me....intentional or not, it knocked Byrne off balance and subsequently he went down. I dont think Byrne is a cheat...maybe he made the most of it, but I think he was definitley tripped.
Would still like you to justify your 'Welshman cheating....again' comment though.
I've seen the Scrum V video. It proves that there was contact by Godman on Byrne because their arms touched and that any contact was not enough to cause Byrne to fall to the ground in the dramatic way that he did, and therefore confirming that he is indeed a cheat. I'm embarrassed for him and for anybody defending him. As for 'Welshman cheating....again', this clip shows Byrne has cheated at least once before and he did it 'again' on Saturday. Simples. Even if you're Welsh. :-)
Well I bow down to your expertise in human physiology and movement. The contact obviously did cause Byrne to fall to the ground in a dramatic fashion and the game was won as a result. I am embarassed for you in that your eyes have obviously let you down. Watch Byrne's foot as he is tripped. Most eyes work in the same way no matter what your nationality.
Lee byrne is such a footballer! he hit that french guy first and so what do you expect! and he throws himself to the floor like hes been shot in the face! and he did dive against scotland, Godman said he didnt touch him and Byrne refused to comment...isnt that evidence enough?
Spot on. If Byrne didn't dive, he should come out and say so. Then we can hopefully view the incident from some other angles (was the TV director a Welshman yesterday? :-)) and get to the truth.
Right now Byrne simply looks like a cheating Taff who has 'previous'.
To tell you the truth I'm sure Lee Bryne did dive and the punch did not hurt as much as he made out. However if diving on the floor gets the opposite player sin binned or red carded then well done to him I say.
@handydandy101 Thats dirty football talk! You could argue both ways, Byrne's fall couldbe more down to the shock of an unsuspected blow, or it is a dive. Either way, rugby is not about scoring cheap points through Dives.
Whats this supposed to mean?....We have a reputation for cheating or something? Tell me your nationality and for every Welsh example of cheating you can give, I'll cite one for your nation.
As for trying to punch the Frenchman first, he clearly pushes him in the shoulder in frustration at being held....his hand is open.
Also, unless you were at the game and had a direct view on the Lee Byrne so called dive against Scotland, then show me some evidence apart from what was said post match. Ive watched it several times from the transmitted angle and it looks reasonable enough that he was felled.
What wily old pros will tell anyone in Rugby...Its only cheating if you get caught.
Rugby players don't go down without a reason.. Unlike most footballers. So I should think it was a pretty hard hit to the face. +rugby players are so strong so it's not going to be a little footballers slap
haha m8 im sorry much that i am myself a welsh supporter and a big fan of lee, it is quite obvious he dived there, look at how he looks over at the ref and then falls, hes a bit cocky this guy, towards the end of the game, mark jones under for the ball lee just runs nicks it from him and plays his own game, on the other hand, lee byrne is fucking awesome and so is wales!
Thats true, going down and crying like a girl is embarrassing to rugby players. Me and mate still laugh at our mate in our team who started screaming like a girl during a game, little did we know he needed crutches. still funny though. Cant stand it when footballers act like they been shot by a gun when they get tapped on the foot or a hand grazes their shoulder.,
@Domiiee1996 Lee Byrne goes down if you blow on him!!! He's not a wimp, more of a footballer when it comes to anything slightly dodgy. (And that's from someone who watches him play nearly every week). In general, rugby players don't dive, but there are plenty of exceptions about these days unfortunately.

You're kidding right... lee byrne dives all over the rugby pitch, and if you really think some players dont go down without a reason check out: /watch?v=9rJrZdhtJQ4
I have nothing against wales but Lee Byrne is such a knob..
Cheap shot. There seems to be a huge amount of it in rugby now where players take sneaky punches at opponents when the ball has just gone past. I think Australian Rules Football has the right idea where they hold "tribunals" every week to look at video replays to identify any incidents of foul or cynical play and take appropriate action. The result of this is a much more attractive and flowing game where real talent florishes and the spoilers are caught and punished.
They do hurt... if you dont expect it then you usualy fall. Byrne has done so much for wales he wouldnt play act when he has already got the penalty for a swinging arm
england were not in tatters, they started off badly but actually they were the most exciting team to watch, scored the most trys and only lost by a point to the eventual champions by a single point at croke park!
Thought England should have won the game against Ireland, but have to disagree with you about being the most exciting team. Wales vs France was definitely the best game of the year (so far!). Honestly thought the Welsh had it again this year, but I guess that's rugby sometimes.
Lol cheers mate, I just call it as I see it. If you go to NZ generally Kiwis are pretty nice, but I accept that we aren't represented very well on youtube.
Rob 12192 is not saying anyone is better than anyone else as the 6 nations is a tournament. Yes, Wales had the strongest team but it didnt matter as they finished fourth. England where in tatters (as usual) but ended up second. You have a point to an extent that the best comparison is drawn between two teams, but in a tournament that is largely irrelevant as its an overall performance. If Wales lost every game except the England one, or vice versa, you wouldnt be claiming they r superior.
tho welsh rugby players are very good, but he did dive, any other rugby player, would have just got up and hit him bak instead of lying on the floor lookin to the ref
so kearney can boot it 60+yards from the 22 ehhh no he is unbalivably one dimentional im not saying he is a bad player i think he is pretty good no lee byrne though armitage is also better they can both ghost through defences and are good under high ball byrne probably being the best fullback in the world at the moment kearney is not better than him even eddie butler would tell you that even though he never says wales are playing well even when there beaten england he still doesnt support us
the english do too. well actually, the englsih just cry like babies at anything. the bags that the medics have in twicks are just full of tissues to wipe away the tears.
hahahahaha 4th in the six nations and england second, munster are out btw gutted m8 and wen was the last time wales won a world cup or even got to a final?
Ya I no, I spoke too soon! Ill be supporting Leicester in the final anyway!:D I dunno what it is with Ireland and Wales but they crumble during world cups... Ireland SHOULD do well in 2011...
well done...you had 2 games handed on a plate to you, Wales didn't have any crazy selections from Italy, or a shattered excuse of a French side to just hand a 40 point win to them.
don't come up with excuses mate just shut up, you've got fuck all to say. Before the six-nations you lot were fucking shouting grand-slam this grand slam that, and then you didn't even finish above england, the team you were calling shite. You lot got fucking blown out, so just stop coming up with pathetic shitty little excuses and keep quiet.
Calm down mate, there's no need for the swearing. We had every right t think we could win teh grandslam thsi year, adn hell we were 1 try against France and 1 penalty against ireland away from doing just that! Every team seemed to target Wales, because they knew we'd be the toughest game. And if you want to compare the English team with the Welsh team, tables and points difference doesn't show anything, only the games between them show it - Wales 23 - 15
how do tables and points difference show nothing? tables and points difference show how well we played OVER THE TOURNAMENT not just in one game. Again coming up with shite excuses.
If you actually read what I said, you'd have seen that I;m not talking about over the course of the tournament, I'm talking about head to head comparison of Wales and England - and the only way of having a proper comparison is the matches between them. You can't really see who's the better team by seeing how Wales did against Scotland, and then looking at how England played against Ireland. And how the hell is putting a bit of proof that Wales are playing better at the moment an excuse?!
er well if you compare how well wales did against france and then how england did well against france it shows who's the better team, and that game against us is all you've got mate after that you went completely downhill. I will admit that you have a better team at the moment, all i'm saying is that you lot underperformed in the six nations and had too high expectations as well, whereas england did a lot better than people thought they were going to.
England did do better than people expected, though I did think they'd beat France, mostly because France tend to flop straight after they put in a brilliant performance. They played fantasticly in the 2nd half against Wales, but looked half-arsed in the match against England. And it really doesn't work like that, I mean if you look at the WC, France were fantastic in beating the All Blacks but then England beat them easily enough. Does that make England a better team the New Zealand? I think not
the reason france looked half-arsed was because the team was poorly picked. They put in all there biggest guys (chabal etc.) with the hoping of being too physical for us, but in the end what happend was that our smaller, faster, and more agile players ran rings around them. And whilst beating france at the WC doesn't make us a better team than NZ, NZ have a habit of choking at world cups
How can you people moan about him going down?? Hes been hit blind, square in the face.

so kearney can boot it 60+yards from the 22 ehhh no he is unbalivably one dimentional im not saying he is a bad player i think he is pretty good no lee byrne though armitage is also better they can both ghost through defences and are good under high ball byrne probably being the best fullback in the world at the moment kearney is not better than him even eddie butler would tell you that even though he never says wales are playing well even when there beaten england he still doesnt support us

well done...you had 2 games handed on a plate to you, Wales didn't have any crazy selections from Italy, or a shattered excuse of a French side to just hand a 40 point win to them.
Thingimubob 2 years ago
don't come up with excuses mate just shut up, you've got fuck all to say. Before the six-nations you lot were fucking shouting grand-slam this grand slam that, and then you didn't even finish above england, the team you were calling shite. You lot got fucking blown out, so just stop coming up with pathetic shitty little excuses and keep quiet.
rob12192 2 years ago
Calm down mate, there's no need for the swearing. We had every right t think we could win teh grandslam thsi year, adn hell we were 1 try against France and 1 penalty against ireland away from doing just that! Every team seemed to target Wales, because they knew we'd be the toughest game. And if you want to compare the English team with the Welsh team, tables and points difference doesn't show anything, only the games between them show it - Wales 23 - 15
Thingimubob 2 years ago
how do tables and points difference show nothing? tables and points difference show how well we played OVER THE TOURNAMENT not just in one game. Again coming up with shite excuses.
rob12192 2 years ago
If you actually read what I said, you'd have seen that I;m not talking about over the course of the tournament, I'm talking about head to head comparison of Wales and England - and the only way of having a proper comparison is the matches between them. You can't really see who's the better team by seeing how Wales did against Scotland, and then looking at how England played against Ireland. And how the hell is putting a bit of proof that Wales are playing better at the moment an excuse?!
Thingimubob 2 years ago
er well if you compare how well wales did against france and then how england did well against france it shows who's the better team, and that game against us is all you've got mate after that you went completely downhill. I will admit that you have a better team at the moment, all i'm saying is that you lot underperformed in the six nations and had too high expectations as well, whereas england did a lot better than people thought they were going to.
rob12192 2 years ago
England did do better than people expected, though I did think they'd beat France, mostly because France tend to flop straight after they put in a brilliant performance. They played fantasticly in the 2nd half against Wales, but looked half-arsed in the match against England. And it really doesn't work like that, I mean if you look at the WC, France were fantastic in beating the All Blacks but then England beat them easily enough. Does that make England a better team the New Zealand? I think not
Thingimubob 2 years ago
the reason france looked half-arsed was because the team was poorly picked. They put in all there biggest guys (chabal etc.) with the hoping of being too physical for us, but in the end what happend was that our smaller, faster, and more agile players ran rings around them. And whilst beating france at the WC doesn't make us a better team than NZ, NZ have a habit of choking at world cups
rob12192 2 years ago
exactly my point, just because England beat France and Wales didn't, doesn't make England the better team.
Thingimubob 2 years ago
you're both right, except the english guy, he's wrong.

gota say it, even as a welshman, but lee's reaction was almost a wendy ball one.
that said, hope gatland gave him a fucking cussing for his girly reaction.
byrne still the best 15 in the world alongside muluina.
