Quote: Gronk! "Punching someone
When you put those decisions in the context they're all at least reasonable.
We'll leave the grabbing someone part out because it's not the playground at an all girls school.
Punching someone after he swung his arm and then stuck his head into your head. Sin binned at the time and a player with an excellent disciplinary record. - Seems fairly reasonable to me.
Head butting someone. Not sure why it'd be treated be more harshly than kneeing someone in the head? But all sane people acknowledgement it was a pretty light headbutt and was highly unlikely to cause injury. Player was sent off, submitted an early guilty plea and had a spotless disciplinary record. - Seems reasonable to me and most other sane people.
So if Hauraki gets 2 games, it's hardly an anti-Cas conspiracy or raving inequity in the disciplinary system.
Personally I don't think he should be banned, I thought it was accidental, non-malicious and is the sort of thing that happens in a tackle. But then I thought that about Sinfield's too.
So in the context of the Sinfield decision, 2-3 games would seem about right.
