In a tackle any back row would have been proud of, Western Force winger Marcel Brache felled Will Genia with aplomb in last weekend’s Super Rugby clash between the Queensland Reds and the Western Force.

Running the ball from a quick line out in typical proactive Genia fashion, the diminutive scrum half was rocked backwards by the power and peerless technique of Forces’ winger, Brache.

Now, here’s an oddity: a centre standing his ground and standing strong whilst a prop bounces off him.

That’s exactly what happened during Toulon and Grenoble’s Top 14 clash a few weeks ago.

Chilachava, a 23 year old Georgian, received the ball in the wide channel and attempted to mow over Hunt, but was met Hunt’s Kiwi resistance.

Hunt, however, lead with his foreman and didn’t make an attempt at a legal tackle and was subsequently yellow carded, whilst Chilachava received treatment from the Toulon medics.
