WATCH: Bismarck shoves physio in ugly scenes

Cape Town - Montpellier's Springbok hooker Bismarck du Plessis reacted angrily to a physio touching the ball as he prepared to pick it up and throw in at a lineout on Friday.

Du Plessis, who has a string of unsavoury incidents to his name during his time in France - HERE and HERE - shoved Edinburgh's physiotherapist during their European Champions Cup clash at Murrayfield.

The incident happened in the 37th minute of the match with Edinburgh 9-0 ahead.

Edinburgh would go on to win the match 19-10 to book their spot in the quarter-finals, while Montpellier were eliminated.
