I'm surprised so many of you think it's something to applaud him over. Briers has done many a great thing for Wire and RL--many of which I hate him for as an opposition fan--but disrupting the forming of a scrum is extremely low. What will we applaud next, football-style diving? Will we clap for crowding round the ref? Can't say it's something I'd want non-RL fans to see of our game and I think anyone who thinks it was "clever" needs to look at the bigger picture.
I'd have thought thousands of fans cheering when a player was semi conscious and bleeding, and then booing (presumably because he didn't die) was far lower.
