Comically cack handed attempt at a clearout. Got past the ball then face planted the floor with shoulder to the head if the Bulls player on the way down.
Sarries played much better without him.

It wasn't outrageous - he came in low to a ruck, but threw himself off his feet over the top and clipped someone in the face on the way through. Not hugely surprised that it's downgraded, although can definitely see the rationale for red.

Have you a link? I've only seen it once - and I take it from your hmm that you disagree with my summary, so I wouldn't mind another look.
