The Ref Stop

Player body slams opposition player.

The Ref Stop
"Well, he's broken his back in three places but he's a tough cookie and I think he'll play on."

"Cheers Geoff!"
 
I was there- horror tackle! he had been eyeing up that for the previous 3 passes. Stockport were getting really frustrated as they were 2-0 down, down to 10 and worcester were passing it around for fun. I do think the ref got the card for the reaction right!
 
From the video if you look at the referees position for the tackle you can see why he gave a yellow, he's quite wide, much wider than he should be and is looking at the challenge from behind.
 
But I think both reds to be honest it is horrible

To be honest both should been red for me

If the sending off report reads "body slamming an opponent" it should be overturned on appeal. It's factually inaccurate.

It was a side suplex. Bodyslams are face-to-face .

It's still real to me dammit!!
