Quote: ccs "2 match ban for Faraimo,'"
To be honest its probably a fair punishment, for me it wasn't malicious or late as Faraimo was already committed to the tackle, unfortunately he made marginal contact with the head which is enough these days. Probably would have been 1 or possibly 2 games but due to his previous its been set as 2.
Just needs to improve his technique and make sure he makes contact low enough in future but these things happen with the speed of the game.
I do also think that some onus has to go on the attacking player too in these instances in regards to high shots when they start to crouch or duck, so I do have some sympathy for Faraimo in this instance as once he's committed he can't readjust. Also think the officials and review panel need to take these things plus the speed of the game in to account as judging a lot of these incidents in anything other than real time speed is unfair and gives a false account.
Gives Fonua another opportunity now.
