Warm Up Match 7: Hurricanes v British & Irish Lions (Wellington)

Yea completely his own fault, he was a bloody idiot for doing it. But you shouldve seen the media and public backlash...probably the biggest I've ever seen. They just completely tore him up. The guy made a really shitty mistake but imo he didn't deserve the treatment he got, it was way overkill. That's what comes with being a rugby player in NZ though I suppose... especially a star AB.
Something to be said for the anonymity of touring with lesser sides then...... ;)

What goes on tour stays on tour.
What happened to Aaron Smith was nothingcompared to what happened to Keith Murdoch back in the 70's.
Murdoch was a monster lock set for an amazing career as an AB.
One incident in a Welsh boozer and he was never seen again in NZ.
