Video: Hilarious lineout fail from Toulon

Professional rugby players are a talented bunch, obviously, but they're not immune to the odd brain fart either.

Saracens took on Toulon in the Heineken Cup today in a game in which Johnny Wilkinson played incredibly, kicking seven penalties and a late drop goal to set up an all French Heineken Cup final in Dublin against Clermont.

Toulon as a whole put up an excellent performance, as you would expect from players at this level, but Jean Charles Orioli gave a lesson on how not to take a lineout during the game.

It’s never a good sign when you’re hitting your team mates in the back with a lineout ball, so it’ll be back to the training ground tomorrow for him by the looks of this.

Hat-tip to Eoin Clancy for sending this in
