Henry Tuilagi crushes lock Jamie Cudmore in Top 14 final

While Clermont are no doubt still celebrating from their big win, there was one moment in the Top 14 final against Perpignan that wasn't great for them, but was a heavyweight clash of note that's well worth taking a look at.
As the weekend nears, it's been another one of those hectic weeks but I've managed to cover most of the big games here on RD. By visiting the site you've been able to see highlights of the Super 14 final , the Guinness Premiership final , the Edinburgh Sevens final, the Magners League final , England against the Barbarians , and of course the Top 14 final .
This coming week will no doubt be similar, as the International season kicks off again with Test matches taking place all around the world. Visit again next week to see updates from those.
This requested clip though is a short snippet from the Top 14 final, as Clermont's Canadian hardman Jamie Cudmore gets chopped down to size by the monstrous force of none other than Henry Tuilagi.
It's not the first time Tuilagi has made his sizable presence felt, so check out the related posts to see more of his massive tackles, and take a look at Try Savers & Rib Breakers 11 to see if you can spot the clip where he easily drove Sebastien Chabal back recently.
Tomorrow on RD we've got something rather different that should bring a smile to your face if all goes to plan. Until then though, keep checking the archives, share links with your friends, and keep coming back for daily updates as we add to this incredible archive of rugby clips online.

Sure, allow in a bit of cultural flair, but not that WWF shit. Pl-ease.

Massive hit, Cudmore should not have gone that low into the tackle, Tuilagi had a great tackling position and did nothing wrong but smash the dude.

Also, many ASM players were watching Henry as he was standing overtop of Cudmore there, if he had been talking shit, I'm sure Ledesma or somebody would have shoo'd Tuilagi away.

it was genuine concern he was showing, whilst straddling him...... and the israelis were viciously attacked and only acted in self defence on that ship.........

The comments towards Cudmore and Canadians etc are pretty uncalled for. I believe it comes from his scuffle with POC, or, POS as I like to call him. Nothing like holding a grudge, eh?

Mise dont bring that shit up, there is plenty for and against about the israelis shit, and its nothing to do with rugby!
The simple fact is these were french teams, and they tend to be a bit fiery, do you think they would have stood by if Tuilagi was talking shit to cudmore? Someone would have pushed him away or shooed him away.....maybe he just stood over him but i doubt he said anything...

Could you show the two men tackle both Clermont flankers gave Tuilagi in the open field, which had him crushed and after which he managed to stay just 10 minutes more on the field?
