For your amusement:- from RugbyOnslaught site -
Of course, the front rows would all be the ones involved in this.
In a match in Georgia just after halftime, the referee took exception to constant errors at the scrum from both sets of forwards. Rather than just bin one player from each side, the referee decided to send the whole front row of both teams.

Would fair ruin a game of
rugbyscrum in Georgia huh? -
I watched Clermont play on the weekend and Ice and Moala had very good games.
Ice was probably the best on the field. Clermont pretty much use him the same way the Blues use to. He has the 15 jersey on, but he's basically position-less on attack and pops up everywhere across the backline.
Fritz Lee was good as well. He always gets through a lot of work when I watch Clermont play.
TNW was playing his first game at 10, but struggled quite a bit there. He did set up a good try for Moala though.
Ngatai was playing for Lyon, but didn't get much chance to do much.

Rugby World Cup winner Stephen Donald rolls back the years to touch the ball twice as part of a 65 metre try in Japan. Pretty good handling and he looks in good nick, especially considering Ulster rejected him on medical grounds.

Wasps have dropped Lima Sopoaga to the bench for their away game to Toulouse. A relatively unheard of 22 year called Billy Searle is being picked as the Wasps 10 ahead of him. Lima has really struggled to settle in Coventry and get to grips with NH Rugby.
Kaino is playing Number 8 for Toulouse.

In his last season sopoaga was struggling in th highlanders and ABs teams. Just don’t think he is much good anymore

Well Lima did say he was there pretty much just for the money...

Wasps lost 27-42. Lima Sopoaga only got on the paddock for the last 12 minutes. He seems to really struggling outside of the ABs and Highlanders playing environments. Wasps must be wondering whether the big money for Sopoaga was worth it.
Nope - the ex-test rarely are. Much better value in uncapped Kiwis.

Yep. Scored a cheeky quick tap in last night’s European game against Bath and assisted well for Gibson-Park coming off the bench to getting a sixth on the night for Leinster. Hayden Triggs was another two seasons ago - liked him a lot.

Lima was struggling here. Hardly surprising his form has continued.
