@Dan543 accidental knock, or foul play as they like to call it, they can go back, and do so regularly, or was that one of the rule tweaks?
Not sure, that's all I heard, was ref asking if it was same phase, so wondered if there a tweek or just in that comp.

That explains the tweet I've just seen by Nigel Owens saying about how there's no phase limit for foul play, you can go right back to the start of play if you want.

Itās not a simple one by any means, mainly because there is the understandable perception that heās been getting away with a shitty tackle technique for too long. However, in isolation the sanction isnāt out of court considering that heās not been sanctioned for over two years. Note, I am not saying this is right, just that it isnāt that unusual. The interesting thing will be how it is determined what the āmeaningful matchesā are that he has to miss.

hat heās not been sanctioned for over two years
To not get a red/red card threshold for over 2 years is gold standard? Nope, IMO he's got previous, time doesn't matter.

As I said mate, itās not that I think itās right but there is enough precedent to make it unsurprising. As I also said, the perception of his previous is not valid if not sanctioned.

The problem isn't that he has form for this, it's that he hasn't been in front of the judiciary as he should to have developed a documented punished pattern of behaviour.

French right depth. In a paywalled article on rugby pass, about an ex Scottish prop coaching Le Havre, which is in the French sixth division
During his early days, Cusack was pleasantly surprised by the standard of Federale 2. Le Havre are a combination of full-time and semi-professional players and currently top their pool as they strive to climb a level.
Whoa! Full time players in the 6th divsion.

Sounds about the same as the UK... well at least up until a few years ago anyway.

Yeah, no way you can bend down that far, you old cnut!
But it is the 'future' to take away one of the key parts so many people love about rugby, the physicality. Yet we still allow people to punch and kick each other in the head for some sports - just bizarre
