“As usual indiscipline from Hill” said one fan.
“Absolutely disgusting there is no yellow for Hill” said another.
“He took it a bit to far with elbow, should be a yellow” said a third.
Elbow on the throat – should be banned for life playing rugbr ever again.
Clearly a yellow . He has form
Banned for life in my eyes,tempers may flair but composure against violence is so important. A to close call and could have caused serious damage far to easily with the forearm on the throat.
This sort of behaviour is totally un acceptable, he has been put on a pedestal as a good player and needs to set a good example, this is not it. Heavy penalties should be inflicted.
The comments so far seem to be from people who have never played the game. It was just a bit of confrontation between “macho” forwards. No-one got hurt and no carding required.
Ban him for 6 games ! It should never happen, no matter the reason for it . They need to dicipline themselves!.
