first rule of tackling in rugby...NEVER EVER shy away from a tackle! second ALWAYS go low and wrap arms around legs not chest!

Now in fairness everyone flattens o gara

now thats what i call domination

Most of Ireland love O 'Gara, he is the highest point scorer for Munster and Ireland.

i love at the very end were he says im a bit smashed up i need the weet a bix haha

as an ogara fan iam looking away right now....

@PearseM96 haha good one. Who won the Heino?

Usually the smaller men are better because they have learnt early to tackle without getting hurt. I agree there is a feel to it as much about the selection of the type of tackle for each moment. But although he will never be great it must be possibly to improve. It's. Moot point because he is at the end now. I would be surprised if he is on the Irish panel by the end of the season, depending on injury.

good man heaslip, good man

Guys O'Gara has written his name in glory and has created a legacy with Ireland and Munster which can never be touched or disputed...yet ask me in 25/30 years what were his skills and strengths and i will tell you that the man is brilliant at controlling a game, beautiful passer of the ball and a tremdeous goal kicker...his weakness has been, is and forever will be his tackling...in my opinion the reason why he has never been a first choice Lions No. 10

@TheIkur ROG is a living legend!!!

@missbananahead same here

Who hasn't smashed Ronan O' Gara...?

ROG the best !!!!

BOOM... "I hear the train a comin' It's rollin' 'round the bend, And I ain't seen the sunshine, Since, I don't know when..." Heaslip ya Beast...

@hmmm098 I'm not the biggest fan of O'Gara but to his credit the man led Munster to two HC's and Ireland to a Grandslam and has been selected for a Lions tour 3 times. He's the highest point scorer in the history of the Heineken Cup and the Six Nations and to say Hodgson is in the same League is quite frankly laughable.

@Wexicanful ya sure has. delighted for him. finally we have a scrum that wont be pushed around!

@Equilibr1st we have a potentially great tighthead in mike ross but kidney doesnt seem to want to know

wouldnt you expect a monster no8 like heaslip to flatten a flyhalf?

i flattened o gara and i have no legs

yup, that is the game - no pads all guts

@SavageShoes100 He's a fly half. Fly halves kick, they don't tackle.

its funny how some people say he needs to bulk up and he's sh$t and he cant tackle but yet he has 100+ caps for ireland. must be doin something right

@TheIkur the last two weeks from ROG make your comment lack in depth

fucking epic

Now that is how you run at a 10!!!!!!!

like SOB rampage

@TopRugbyLad sry mate forgot that one thanks for reminding me. Oh and i just want to say because of all the big tackles he put in and putting his body on the line he really messed him self up. While he was incredible brave in defense it cost him a lot in terms of injury. Out halfs arent really meant for big defense unless they are Carter or wilko ;)

@PearseM96 hahaha your a comedian !

@georgeammorris Phil Vickery is equally responsible for costing us the first test.

@1234howrya yeah but all he needed to do was jump to look like he was competing for the ball and he wouldn't have been penalised for taking the man out. and i suppose, but you can't blame it all on the bull, the front 5 was changed a lot, they had andy sheridan instead of gethin jenkins, matt rees on for lee mears and simon shaw behind him instead of alun wyn jones so too many variables have been changed to make a judgement on how they fared in the scrum compared with the first test

@Th3MainMan naa Nick Easter, LOL

It's easy for a 18 stone man knock down a man half his weight , o gara was a great player

Didn't know rog was only 9 stone! Wow.

@jimbomalley Thankfully a lot has changed since that comment man !, Ross for the WC it seems !

@Th3MainMan and parisse

yeah his noggin hit the ground quite hard there bet he was seeing stars for a few mins

Jonny Wilkinson or Dan Carter

Is it me or does o'driscoll do a little skip when heaslip hits rog? ha legend

@TopRugbyLad ya he does have bad defense but so do nearly all out half's bar carter who's not human ;)

Good work Jamie, Like every other rugby fan outside of Ireland I have no time for Ronan.

@@strawberrykicker2 Well it’s because of The Lions if I’m honest with you. He was talented but at that level they all are. He wasn’t good enough to be a test playing lion and in the end it showed. However he is doing very well as a coach and I think will have an equally successful coaching career as his playing career.

@@strawberrykicker2 There was a good few factors, we threw away a lead for sure. But he made a really poor decision which ultimately handed them the victory. I made no suggestion he was the only culprit. But he was the deciding factor at the end. What’s your opinion on his mistake that he made? Because it was a mistake.

@mustainerulesxx Hear Hear!! I think your forgeting the one man losing machine Phil Vickery. Only on the team because of sky!!!

You would think the coaches and himself would go off and do a little work on technique to make sure he docent get killed tackling. You can't fault his courage because he keeps trying to make tackles his only flat is the way he is trying to make them. Actually if he gets in contact with me it will take me a couple of hours and it won't happen again.

is there a 10 that can tackle properly...

lol :D

Want a cookie ?

I'm O'gara's 3rd cousin...

I support munster but this i pretty funny.

Jesus christ-Shane williams flattened O'Gara!

it take 3 guys to take him down. lol

lol

Do Munster fans even like O Gara?

o'garacost us the lions series

Its not that he's not willing but like you say his technique is awful, just a complete spacker....... there are many little men who were great tacklers, like George Gregan..... its about attitude and technique. They say tackling can be learnt and is about attitude...... O'Gara proves this is not always true...... I honestly believe he has no natural feel for it whatsoever.

Get better and better everytime i watch this lol O'Gara was the weakest link in the Munster and Ireland Team

O'Gara is allergic to tackling FACT

@LoveSeungYeon O Gara cant bulk up.He cant put on weight

It's funny cause ROG can't tackle

both extremely over rated players

Who tackles someone around the shoulder?!!! One of the worst tackles I've ever seen!

stick to table tennis you probably know more about that.

ogara is a joke! the fact that he has played that many tests for ireland says something about the lack of depth

At least Jamie Heaslip had the sense to run at the WEAKEST PLAYER on the pitch, why no other team did that week in and week out i've never understand. O'Garas career wouldnt of been half as long the useless gap

Every team targeted O'Gara.. It's just that Wallace was always up off the scrum to protect him
