      ​@@adammiddup-jones4563 the French do numbers differently. In French rugby usually there's no distinction between openside and blindside flankers. 6 is the left flanker, 7 is the right.
      He might have worn 6 a lot, but that didn't make him not an openside.

      What about temperament? I didn't watch rugby when he was playing but the Frogs always need an example of somebody who keeps his head when the pressure is on. Doesn't seem to have a rep as a thug as best I can tell so I imagine he was sound on this front.

    Thierry Dusautoir believes the reason his tackling technique is so good is because of his background in Judo. He only started rugby in his teens whereas he was a black belt in Judo.

    Not sure if you will read this Andrew, but theres a french youtube channel that has essentially taken your video, reassembled it differently and out a different music. It's called rugby o top and has already been accused by other youtubers of essentially poaching their footage. Not sure what can be done or even if you want anything to be done about it, but I think your hard work deserves to be rewarded and not let opportunists cruise on your hard work

      "The Dark Destroyer" was his actual nickname when he was playing. He also was nicknamed "Titi", but I guess it wouldn't make for the best title, and "le sécateur", but it's in French so most people will miss the meaning.

      @@AndrewDavidForde This nickname was created by France's defence coach at the time, David Ellis. In 2007, Dusautoir wasn't very famous yet. After he put out one of the best individual performance in rugby history against the AB in 2007, journalist were very curious about him. So he answered "You don't know him? He's the dark destroyer." This nickname was then massively used by the press.
