Gethin Jones was left laughing his socks off as his fellow TV presenter Craig Doyle found himself on the ground thanks to a cheeky tackle by Welsh rugby legend Sam Warburton! During the live coverage of the Wales vs Argentina match, the trio—Warburton, Doyle, and Dan Biggar—decided to get hands-on with a demo of the “jackal” move, a key play in the game dealing with ball turnover.
Warburton, no stranger to ruck dominance during his playing days, led the demonstration, showing viewers the importance of defensive techniques. As Biggar passed Doyle the ball, Doyle charged at Warburton, who swiftly tackled him to the ground, playfully demonstrating the move in action. Warburton joked about having some “beef” with Doyle off-camera, adding a touch of humour to the piece, as Doyle exclaimed, “Leg drive, leg drive!” while trying to break through.
Doyle gamely stayed down, joking about back trouble until Warburton helped him back to his feet. Gethin Jones couldn’t help but share the fun on Instagram, posting a pic of Doyle on the floor with the caption: “Having a lovely time Craig Doyle 🤣.”
The demo was a lighthearted moment amidst an otherwise tough match for Wales, who were outscored by Los Pumas. Despite the result, Warburton praised the Welsh team for their resilience, highlighting some standout defensive plays like Jac Morgan’s crucial jackal turnover. Whether you’re a die-hard rugby fan or just tuning in for the entertainment, this hilarious clip is sure to make you chuckle! 🏉😂 #RugbyFun #WalesRugby #SamWarburton #CraigDoyle #GethinJones
