Former England prop and rugby pundit David Flatman has come out in defence of Dan Biggar after the Wales fly-half was involved in an altercation with an abusive fan.
Northampton playmaker Biggar was shown a red card for a high tackle on Lions team-mate Chris Harris during the Saints' Challenge Cup defeat to Gloucester. However, it seems that the Wales skipper was subjected to abuse from a member of the crowd as he headed towards the sidelines and took up a position for the rest of the match.
Biggar, allegedly, was unable to brush it off and exchanged verbals before stewards intervened. Details of the incident have been posted to a blog run by Ashley Tuala, the wife of Biggar's Northampton team-mate Ahsee.
