O’Gara’s actions louder than words
For a week, O’Gara was the talk of the town in the rugby heartland that is Leicester. He had set himself up for a fall by stating that English players were collectively over-hyped. O’Gara talked from the hip, said what he felt and was pummelled on Sky television because he called a spade a shovel.
But yesterday he had the last laugh. Faced by Paul Burke for 40 minutes, and Andy Goode for the remaining minutes of the match, O’Gara came out smiling, even if he did go home last night with a slightly bruised eye and nose.
