Ma'a Nonu shoulder charge on Gavin Henson in 2004
This clip is from a high quality game between the All Blacks and Wales from November 2004. Exciting counter-attack and venture from both sides, as well as some brutal defensive work.
All Black centre Ma'a Nonu gets a little overeager however, and obliterates Welshmen Gavin Henson with a shoulder after he kicks it.
He gets the 10 mins in the sin bin to think about how to use his arms in future.

god the welsh team hate henson, prop was laughing his ass off, hairy dude, forgotten his name

Henson is a complete jackass and probably deserved it for one of his many offenses to the rugby playing world. that being said i'm not a huge Nonu fan. Who ended up winning the match?

Cheap shot, I agree!And that's why Nonu is stuck in Miramar and not in France - too many times does the red mist descend and he just friggin' loses it.This from a Miramar-ite and Wellington fan.

nonu could be such a great player, he could be a legend, he just plays dirty. he needs to focus all that aggression to legal play. yes hes always dominating ppl, but there illegal moves. and p.s. henson is garbage. :)

"god the welsh team hate henson, prop was laughing his ass off, hairy dude, forgotten his name"Adam Jones I think.

Henson hasn't been at his best. But this is just testimony to the fact that the ABs cheat at any opportunity. At least McCaw does it with some subtlety and gets away with it. (He's a damn good cheat, have to admit! How does he do it so often, and still get away with it?) Nonu's a moron.

He milked that, that was not a big hit at all.
Craig August 17, 2007 9:07 am
Big hit, shame it wasnt legal, if he'd used his arms it could have been just as hard! Good Vid!

Nonu is a legend! I remember watching the Kiwi Possibles Vs Probables. He was on the Possible team and he ran through everyone!On his day he's a legend.How old is he?

cheap shot, he had no momentum, he had already kicked the ball.nonu is shit, he always plays dirty,hes fucking ugly too.Henson's the best
Anonymous August 19, 2007 5:45 am
Nothing wrong with it i reckon, bit Hollywood on Henson's side.Though Ma'a can be a idiot like dat sometimes.Don't think it warranted a yellow card though.

HA that dirty welsh fucker henson spends to much time on his hair doesn't want to get tackled and hes with that fat welsh girl that looks like a man
Anonymous August 24, 2007 10:37 pm
If Nonu did something like this earlier in the game then i can understand the card but if its first time then it shud be a warning! Im 17 play lock or back row and coaches say if u put in a tackle like this on a kicker and dont get warned then do it all day cos he aint gonna want the ball for much longer!

Simple As Rules Of Rugby Is That You Can't Shoulder Charge. Blatent Shoulder Charge No Arms Involved And It Was Late Soo It Was Blatently Illegal.

I love the fact Henson is recieving so much hate. It brings me great joy.And Nonu is a boss... But he does need to sort out his agression like others stated.Ps. Hensons a twat
Anonymous September 03, 2007 4:47 pm
Henson is shit, he spends more time greasing his hair than he does trying to improve his shit standard of rugby and he dives like a footballer.
Anonymous September 22, 2007 6:32 pm
no real rugby fan would say he deserved that what dirty play has he done he is a orange little gay "am welsh by the way" but still i dont care who they are its rugby follow rules or go play some other game
Anonymous September 30, 2007 3:41 pm
the stupid twat henson deserved it completely!! he is a dirty player and spends twice as long doin his hair and make-up as he does actually playing rugby!! he is more obsessed with being on the front page of papers and magazines than he is with doing his job and playing rugby! ps, he loves sheep
Andy T October 10, 2007 8:26 am
Loved him flicking his legs up like a poncey footballer, fair enough massive hit its gunna take you out and put you down, but he's pulled off a cristiano ronaldo there, yeah illegal but only because no arms, was treading a line of lateness but i reckon was just ok, if he wrapped the arms would've been legal massive hit, which are always heaps better

hahaha! to: 'who won that game?'Wales havent beaten All Blacks for something like 50 years hahaha...
