He may be called Teddy, but Racing Metro and France winger Teddy Thomas is anything but soft, as this video of him becoming the meat in a George North and Samu Manoa sandwich proves.

Extremely elusive in tight spaces, the winger’s progress down the near side was halted by the combined might of Samu Manoa and George North, who, in a pincer movement, converged on Thomas.

Fortunately, neither North or Manoa clashed heads and Thomas was unscathed, despite being hit from either side by two of the most powerful men in Northern Hemisphere Rugby.

Regular watchers of the Pro 12 will know that, on song, Glasgow Warriors can produce Rugby of the highest calibre. Akin to a Super Rugby team, Gregor Townsend’s charges can go through the gears ruthlessly and quickly.

Last Sunday in their match away to Bath, the Scots impressively showed their wears to the wider European audience.

Even though they would eventually succumb to defeat, 20-15, the moment of the match had to belong to Glasgow’s Richie Vernon.

The number eight found himself on the end of an incisive eight pass move that filleted Bath’s defensive resistance.

This weekend, George North put in a virtuoso performance befitting of his exulted status within the game; scoring four tries against the Ospreys in the European Champions Cup.

The former Scarlet exhibited all his strength, power & try scoring instincts, particularly for his last score.

In case you didn’t already know it, Christian Wade is a veritable speed merchant.

If our word isn’t enough for you, ask Leinster’s Ian Madigan, the man whom the English winger burns for pace during Wasps Champions Cup defeat to Leinster last weekend.

This is a video, we suspect, Ian Madigan won’t want to see again.

In what could only be described as a sequence of horrific proportions for George Pisi, the Northampton centre manages not only to drop the ball with the line at his mercy, but, in the process, also pick up what looked like a hamstring injury.

To add insult to injury, his team, the Northampton Saints, would go on to cede not only the game but what could have been a crucial losing bonus point.  Their opponents, Racing Metro, however, can count their lucky stars.
