JONATHAN SEXTON HAS never been a shy man once he crossed the white lines of rugby field. But that innate will to win has reportedly landed him in a match-up that he was never going to win at Racing Metro training this week.
The Parisian club travel to Toulouse this weekend for a season-defining playoff clash with the southern giants of French rugby.
And with intensity rising, Rugbyrama report that the Irish out-half screamed in the ear of 112 kilo, 6′ 6″ lock Juandre Kruger after what he deemed excessive force during a contact session in training. Kruger reacted unfavourably and the pair had to be separated by team-mates.
Lucky Jonno.
“We’re preparing for a big match in Toulouse and there is obviously a lot of pressure and aggression,” said back row Bernard La Roux afterwards.
That’s all fine as long as no Irish lads get hurt.
