Quote: PopTart "We had some decisions go our way too. The odd forward pass certainly.
He was so injured he managed to jump to his feet once sorted and walk off to the bin.
He made a great tackle and saved the game with that and other plays but he held on too long and was bound to get pinned by ref.'"
It's not unusual to see an injured player finally get to his feet ( I don't know that he jumped to his feet though) and walk off.
You seem to be taking the view that he faked injury in order to hold onto the player, the ref obviously took the same view but that's a dangerous precedence to set, IMO he was too hasty with the card.
