Quote: Septimius Severus "Not saying there wasn't a gash to his face. He clutched his face as soon as it happened, and before he was tackled.
The tackle looked innocuous at the time, but he made sure the referee spotted it.
Rugby players have been known to play on with ruptured testicles. Currie would fall over if he stubbed his toe.'"
I don't think this is the case at all. Watching the replay he doesn't seem at all bothered by Brown's tackle, he looks at the referee for guidance because he's got quite a lot of blood, and is unsure whether he'll be allowed to play on without getting patched up.
