McRae still can’t explain attack on Lion O’Gara

It’s 11 years and three months since Duncan McRae wrote his name in Lions infamy.

His attack on Ronan O’Gara was one of the lowlights of a controversial tour of Australia but to this day he can’t explain his actions.

At the time of his sentencing before a disciplinary committee he said he was reacting to O’Gara swinging an arm at him. However, yesterday he admitted he just lost it.
