why not

the rule is you are not allowed to go low and take a player below the knee

so you might like to explain

Thanks - it happened right in front of me and all the pain seemed in his back. Very sore for ages on the bench. It would have been incredibly jarring.

Radio reported no structural damage, just bruising, off for scans tomorrow.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

You must have been close by. i was behind the point post closest. He ran off like a geriatric but before that he was looking in all sorts of trouble. I was imagining the worst like a cracked disc or something.
