Let’s play a game …

I spy with my little eye something beginning with S.
 
Why do half the sources on SM say it is 12 weeks while the other half says it is 12 games?

It is 12 weeks FFS...

Not sure what the still of an accidental football to the face has to do with the still of a deliberate finger in the eye.

I hold the Boks, and specifically their most experienced player, to a much higher standard and won't be blinded by bias. Nothing you post is going to change my position.
It wasn’t a deliberate finger in the eye. That would be you making crap up.

So looking at a still photo of a ball hitting someone in you can immediately tell it was accidental! I bow to your superior skills.

I, at no point equated a ball to the face with a finger to the eye. I was merely pointing out that using a still photograph as "evidence" can be very misleading. I my defence, that was before I learnt about you superpower.
 
A player with 141 caps shouldn't have done something like that.
Considering his very clean record over 141 games - I don't think I have ever even seen him throw a punch at any level. Have you ever considered that it's extremely out of character and there is a good chance that it was accidental?
