NOBODY CAN DENY that Delon Armitage has been in scintillating form during most of his tenure in the south of France with Toulon. What people might question, however, is whether or not Armitage is a decent human being.
From angrily confronting drug testers, to showboating in the 2013 Heineken Cup final, the former London Irish player generally rubs people the wrong way.
During Toulon’s win over Montpellier, Armitage threw a four letter word towards his captain, Carl Hayman, after the ref called the two of them over (48 seconds in).
Do players swear regularly in the heat of the moment? Yes. But when Armitage does it, you can’t help but look at his past and think that is just the kind of petulant individual he is.
