Joe Marler's most brutal insult started a 30 man brawl and got the prop banned

Marler's remarks, made during a scrum in the first half at The Stoop on Tuesday, reportedly concerned Heenan's mother and incited a significant melee between the players, resulting in a penalty against the Bristol flanker.

An RFU disciplinary panel imposed a six-week ban on Marler, with four weeks suspended until the end of the 2023-24 season. Additionally, the 32-year-old must give a presentation on the core values of the sport to a local club or school, as well as to a Premiership academy.

"The insulting and offensive comments made by the player were wholly inappropriate; such comments should form no part of the modern game."

n 2016, Marler received a two-week suspension and was fined £20,000 for calling Wales prop Samson Lee "gypsy boy", and two years ago he received a 10-week ban for grabbing Wales lock Alun Wyn Jones' genitals during a Six Nations game.

A young player was making his Premiership debut at scrum-half. He was playing against Andy Gomersall. He tried to be funny at the first scrum and said to Gomersall "don't hurt your back putting the ball in, old man". He retorted "I would give you some abuse, but I have no idea who the f@*k you are!"

Ouch.

Harry Ellis had taken Austin Healey's position at scrum-half in 2001 - and Healey had dropped to the bench. In the changing rooms before the game, the experienced Healey came over to Ellis and asked how he was feeling ahead of his debut in front of 15,000 at Welford Road  - Ellis replied 'I'm really, really nervous about it mate - absolutely bricking myself!', to which Healey told him 'Yeah, well you should be nervous - because you're f*cking sh*t!'

During the 2018 Autumn International clash at Twickenham, viewers heard him tell Australia’s forward pack: “You’re all ****ing snitches anyway”.

As Balls.ie and others have pointed out, Sinckler’s comments were surely in reference to Australia’s decision to drop Kurtley Beale and Adam Ashley-Cooper for the England game. The pair were dropped after they were found to have brought guests back to the team hotel following a defeat in Wales earlier this month.

A certain coach shouted to the referee: "ref can we make a sub?"

The ref agreed to which the coaches response was: "Good, can you come off the pitch, please?!"

Nigel Owens is openly gay and campaigns for bullying, but that does mean he’s above being self-deprecating. During a dodgy Harlequins line-out he told the hooker, in a roundabout way, he best get his throws together.
