UKRob said:I'd like to get the Welsh supporter's views on Mike Philips - the more I see of him the more unpleasant he seems to get. His reaction after Ireland's last try seems to sum him up, wanting to pick a fight when he had absolutely no reason to get involved.
Edit - it doesn't have to be welsh supporters only, I'm interested in whether I'm perhaps seeing more in this than is justified.
He's the villain we all love to hate but at the same time brings an edge and niggle to the game that makes it exciting. He's a great talent, I like him as a player but I do often wish someone would give him a right good thump and bring him back back down to earth.
It was all a bit of handbags at the end of the game. Phillips was actually sin binned, didn't realize that until long after the game was over.
