Stuart Hogg put in headlock by former Scotland team-mate after instigating mass brawl with ‘stupid’ Thomas Ramos incident
Stuart Hogg and Thomas Ramos were both yellow carded after a brawl broke out in the Top 14 encounter between Montpellier and Toulouse.
I thought Stuart Hogg retired ?

He un-retired to pay for his legal bills and fines for stalking his ex

Needs to be more of those in rugby, if you duck your head going into a tackle, it's your fucking fault
'Don't talk to us about player safety': Manu Tuilagi's Top 14 debut controversy
England international Manu Tuilagi's debut for Bayonne in the Top 14 has caused a stir after a shot on La Rochelle's Gregory Alldritt.
Although to be honest, there just needs to be consistency
-
this is a really interesting problem, if Tuilagi goes any lower there he's basically aiming at the knees which having seen two horrendous injuries in the GP this weekend, makes me feel sick. Dipping your head that much into contact as the ball carrier is somewhat instinctive but definitely causes the head impact - not sure how realistic it is to change the laws to punish the ball carrier though

It's been a thing in club rugby here for at least a couple of seasons - late dip by the ball carrier isn't allowed - can't remember what the sanction is though as it's very rarely called.
