England accuse Irish of worse behaviour at World Cup
The accusations were revealed in one of several confidential reviews conducted into England’s shambolic World Cup campaign, when a number of players were disciplined for bad behaviour during the tournament.
Those reviews, conducted separately by RFU Elite Director of Rugby Rob Andrew, the Players’ Union and the professional clubs were all leaked to a British newspaper and published yesterday, revealing damning findings concerning players and team management alike. Chief among the lowlights was Mike Tindall’s now infamous night out in a Queenstown bar, when security camera footage stolen by a bouncer and sold to a newspaper, showed the newly married husband of the Queen’s granddaughter with his head in another woman’s cleavage and other players enjoying drunken revelry with dwarves.
