Christ Tshiunza could be one to watch too, potentially making his debut from the bench. Still only 19 and only played a handful of games in the English Premiership, but a lot of buzz from his performances at U20 level.
Has actually played for both England and Wales U20s, so not sure if getting him locked into red was a consideration in giving him a senior cap.
Yes everyone thinking he's the next Itoje

They should aim their sights higher and hope he's the next AWJ or Matfield.

I disagree with the "force" bit and with the red. Fortunately, it's only for 20 minutes.
It was clumsy, but hardly cynical.20 mins?

@mikethesnow Isn't that the law trial? 20-minute red cards, then a replacement player coming on?

It was clumsy, but hardly cynical.Problem is geographic consistency. That's a red just about every time in the NH, but not in the south. Whatever the decision it's going to cause angst and cries of inconsistency.
Great shame for the match though.

That’s fucking horseshit quite frankly
There was zero need for him to hit Williams for the second time.
He did
He hit the head with force to a player who couldn’t defend himself
And paid the price
Deservedly
If you think that action is acceptable and defensible then the SH has problems now and will be fielding lawsuits down the line which will cripple their unions.
