VIDEO: Adam Ashley Cooper recreates Conor McGregor celebration in latest Brian O’Driscoll dig

Ain't about the money

The light-hearted banter continues.

Brian O’Driscoll must have thought his Twitter barney with Adam Ashley-Cooper was consigned to history. Not so.

The former Test rivals, who have a lot of respect for each other as rugby players, went at it on social media after O’Driscoll claimed the Australian had signed with Bordeaux Begles for the money.

The back-and-forth got testy at times before the two men decided to walk away with their hands up.

This morning, Ashley Cooper and French back Sofiane Guitoune decided to have a bit of fun in the Bordeaux dressing room.

Using Jessie J’s ‘Price Tag’ as a backing track, the Aussie flipped fake money into the air, reminiscent of Conor McGregor’s celebration after he knocked out Jose Aldo.

We hope O’Driscoll deigns not to respond or, if he does, selects a class tune and a better hat.
