Just a violent act committed here! Ronan O'Gara vs Duncan McRae Rugby Fight wasn't much of a fight more a one-way mauling! Duncan McRae, the New South Wales Waratahs full-back banned for 7 weeks for punching Ronan O'Gara 11 times, has spoken out for the first time about the incident. Speaking to a local newspaper, McRae said: "I've been made out to be the devil in some of these reports and that's why I'm speaking now. "I want to make it very clear that I am sorry for what happened. I regret it and I hope to catch up with him [O'Gara] and say so in person. "Still, I don't think the things that have been said about me are fair at all. I've been called a thug, a cheap-shot merchant and a psycho. I can wear it, even though it is very wrong, but for my parents and my girlfriend, well, that's not fair on them." McRae recalled the incident during last season's Zurich Premiership when Lions skipper Martin Johnson was banned for 35 days for attacking McRae in a match between Leicester and Saracens. He stated that that had no bearing on the O'Gara attack, but admitted he felt double standards were in operation in the British public's reaction to both. "Johnson almost put a hole in my stomach when I was lying on the ground and then trampled all over me just to finish the job, and I didn't see people trying to run him out of the game. "I've played the sport as a professional for nine years now and I've never been sent off or suspended. What has not been said is that what happened was not an unprovoked attack. "In the first half, I wore one in the gob from O'Gara and in the second half, he gave me another one. Then, in a tackle, he kicked out at me and I ended up on top of him and I just went at him. It takes a lot for me to lose my temper and it's wrong to hit a bloke on the field. "Most of all, I'm sorry for the fans that I let down. I hope they can forgive me when I play for the Waratahs again."
