Multiple players suspended following Perpignan and Bayonne mass brawl
Remy Martin, Gregory Le Corvec, David Marty, and Aretz Iguiniz will all be relegated to the stands for the next month, following a decision from the LNR earlier tonight to suspend all give of them after they each were found to have thrown multiple punches.
It was a typically fierce tempered encounter between the two sides, as visitors Bayonne took to the pitch amidst a chorus of booing, perhaps setting the tone for what would be an occasion marred by violence.
Perpignan won the match 25-19, but yellow cards were dished out at regular intervals, with the worst of the fights taking place after the final whistle, with Le Corvec walking up to Martin and having a full go.
He will be out until April 22nd, while Martys case will be reclassified on April 12th. Bayonne flanker Jean-Jo Marmouyet also appears to have been suspended, with the same punishment as Marty. Aretz Iguiniz has been suspended for twenty days.
Perpignan meanwhile have been fined 7 000 euros, while Bayonne were handed a 12 000 euros fine, with the 5000 extra based on them being repeat offenders.

the Catalan number 6 should miss the rest of the season for that punch at the end imo.
From an early age we are taught to direct our aggression through the tackles/rucks/mauls and not waste our time with off the ball scuffles. They try to act all manly but a man doesn't let his team-mates and family down by getting sent-off, band and probably getting a pay-cut for the fine.

Does anyone know why Bayonne was boo-ed on the field? And let us know (via twitter maybe) why certain things happened, especially why Le Corvec went out to find trouble. Maybe something Martin said something?
The Other Conor March 23, 2011 9:06 pm
Hummm kinda weird to see a big fight in the top 14 without Jamie Cudmore involved in it...that lad at the end that threw the punch after full time, Ban him ban him for 12months, fuck it ban him for life, that ISN'T our sport!
RedYeti March 23, 2011 9:09 pm
Don't know what Marty did to deserve that much attention throughout the game, but Le Corvec should have a much lengthier ban than the others for what is essentially an unprovoked assault. Once the game is over the regular laws of the land apply, no? Could possibly be tried for assault/attempted GBH with that ridiculous suck punch as Martin was looking the other way...
Anonymous March 23, 2011 9:10 pm
No 6 in blue should be banned for life. No matter what the blonde hair did, there's no excuse for a completely blind sucker punch on a defenseless player especially AFTER the match has ended.
Blonde dude is fairly tough, took about 4 or 5 hard punches square in the face and stayed on his feet.

pity that players like Le Corvec are more famous for their agressive actions than for their skills

Anonymous March 23, 2011 9:55 pm
My understanding is that the french (maybe even broader latin) culture of rugby is diffrent from the anglo-saxon culture of rugby, behaviour like this is quite frequent in french lower divisions and come up from time to time in the higher leagues (Pro D2 and Top 14). The fact is that unfortunately these clubs have trouble adapting to the international scene when they play other European clubs and therefore get the impression that they are hard done by the citing comissionners... What is normal in France is abnormal and considered shameful in England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland, SA, NZ etc... These fights are a proud part of the rugby culture between BO and Bayonne for example or in this case Bayonne and USAP... However, despite the fact I know this... I still can't stand this...
WillieJohnMcBride March 23, 2011 10:00 pm
Pfft this isnt new to rugby - Back in the amateur era fights were part and parcel of the game. Didnt mean you wouldnt go for a drink with the same guy you punched in the face with earlier.

I always call for some biff in games, personally I enjoy it and don't take much issue with it.
But fighting after the whistle, imo there's a monster difference and I don't tolerate it one bit. What happens in the previous 80 minutes should stay there.
Sucker punching someone after the game has ended, even if they're sledging, isn't on.
And to be perfectly honest you could get the cleanest club in world rugby, if one of their players was attacked like that after the whistle, they'd react.
I would happily see the player who threw that punch banned for atleast a year.
However, the occasional square-dance in the game itself, as I say I enjoy it.

Hmmm, actually this was pretty nuts, even for the French..
Never expected that 'after the whistle sucker punch' that was very very out of order..
I have seen the match with the french hookers bashing each other in the sin bin...but they had heated words as they went off the pitch, but to walk up to someone after the whistle and hit them when their back is turned is very low...
Im suprised he hasnt been banned for a much longer time... I think the fact its after the game and on someone who is clearly not in an aggressive stance makes it completely wrong.
Im much like a couple comments above, I do like seeing a bit of a biff match but after the game :/ nope!

When Martin comes off he gets a tap on the ass. I've never quite understood this, why is there a need to tap another players ass? I mean I've played 6,7,8 and 4,5 and I know the positions in scrums etc could be consider by those who dont play as 'queer,' whereas to those of us that play they are down to the best body positions.. but a tap on the ass...

I LOVE a good dust up in rugby, shows you are right on the edge (which some of us need to be) but the only thing lower than coming off the bench to fight is doing it after the whistle.
That bloke should get months not days as a suspension.

LeCorvec : This guy has no talent... not even a good player and foremost a scared chicken.
Look at the last punch he threw at Cudmore his first reaction is to take a step away..
It's been going on for years and yet he got away with a lot of things.
This is the kind of guy that should be banned from Rugby...
Then again on the other side we had Martin who has somewhat the same profile... except that he's learned a bit through the years

2 of the clubs "hardmen" going head to head, Le Corvec & Martin!!! Except Martin (as with recent weeks) is being much better behaved than his usual rowdy self (due to Club/Coach/League orders)!! Le Corvec on the other hand is still a tallentless thug punk bitch, hes not even very good @ fighting hence the cheapshots!! The French Top 14 League is clamping down big on this sort of behaviour!! I cant really see what Martin did & why he was singled out for "special" treatment!! Bayonne dont deserve anything as far as i can see, in court it would be a clear cut case of "self defence"!! As far as that little cheapshot prick Marty is concerned, typical back, hit someone bigger than them and then run & hide behind the forwards!! Mind it, on a second watch the whole Perpignan squad was @ it (cheap shots), just watch Robins Tchale-Watchou (Perpignan #5) on Martin @ the end (4:34), runs in, throws a cheapshot, then legs it!! What a bunch of Cowards

Even though Le Corvec's behavior is pathetic, you have to understand that rugby in southern France has a very different culture compared to the UK (as well as NZ, Aus and SA) or northern France.
It's been embraced by a popular class whereas it has mainly been played by bourgeois or aristocrats in the UK.
It's been often considered as a mean to express violence on a field rather than a sport of its own. In addition, the rivalry between the towns of southern France is stronger than anywhere else.
I think it should have disappeared or at list soften in the professional era but it sometimes resurfaces... it's kinda part of the rugby culture in southern France though...

Disgraceful stuff at the end from whoever punched that guy in the back of the head to start it all.
And what were Bayonne wearing? It looked like bondage gear.

Le Corvec, the scum of the top14.
It's maybe 10 years that he gives cheap shots and coward punchs.
I mean every team have a "dirty" player: Munster have Quinlan, Toulouse have Lamboley, Safa's have brussow, England have Hartley...etc
But what prove Le Corvec at international level, nothin! He prefers to gain his popularity by the number of punchs than caps

Greg.. Quinlan is not a dirty player. Granted he has done one or two retarded things in his career but he is not dirty.
red March 24, 2011 12:52 pm
I'd disagree. I'm a Munster fan, but I'd say Quinlan could maybe be called "dirty". And by that, I mean that he's got the eye for cheating that back row players seem to have and he's got a bit of a agitating scrumhalf mentality where he tries to provoke other teams.
But I would not say is that he's a coward. He never really goes up and punches anyone in the back of the head like Corvec did here. He's also not typically overly-aggressive (ie - not especially looking for fights).

The commentators mentioned that Martin & Le Corvec played in the same club Mont de Marsan before moving on to their new club...maybe they just can't stand each others?
I'm coming from the South West of France and i agree with Aymeric. Over there things can be very tensed, there's a lot of history between clubs, and some of them are know to be quiet "nasty"; i mean players, coaches, supporters. This is the derby mentality basically.
The best example is Toulon which has always been rough. There's a famous game (Toulon vs. Begles-Bordeaux) in 1991 where aggression between the 2 teams start in the tunnel, before the game has even started and go on for the entire 80 min.
During the minute of silence guys in the stands shout "Fuckers", "Go fuck yourself" Ridiculous!
Check this one: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1hlx_toulon-begles-1991-1ere-mi-temps_sport
Fight happens in rugby but here i'd blame the 3 ref for letting the fight escalate to 30 guys almost.
I disagree when some say it's typical. It was typical but not anymore.

During the minute of silence guys in the stands shout "Fuckers", "Go fuck yourself" Ridiculous!
I thought the one shouting those gentled words to Moscato was....Califano, one of the most successfull prop in french rugby history, has a youth player or ball carrier?????
Can someone confirm/deny this please????
Anyhow Frenchie/Aymeric you guys are spot on with your comments.
LA guerre des clochets, the war bells, is typical from the south west of France, highligthed by the old rivalry Beziers/Begles/Narbonne et Toulon (80/90's) but where their roots are/(were?) found far more deeper...in the small lost village from the south west....still wondering if this still true nowadays....
But still this does not excuse the poor image given by both team and especially Le Corvet / Martin....

i believe Califano was born in the region of Toulon but i have no clue if he was the one shouting during the game. I don't think he did, the voices we hear are the ones of grown ups, no?
Yeah, in this 1991 game there's not much rugby...

Califano is born toulonnais and learn rugby in Toulon academy, he is the young boy screaming during the minute of silence in the 1991 game.
He was 17 yo.
Blame him. Send him a twitter.

There is NOTHING wrong with a punch up or two ... but EVERYONE knows, the instant the whistle goes you stop fighting and shake hands!
Only footballers fight after the whistle ... I hope this isnt more football culture coming into the game!!!
