Rassie was banned from attending games (one would think to keep him away/distance himself from match officials for a while after his videos got leaked) - to preserve the integrity of the officiating during the games without outside influence. It made sense to me, even though I was bitter about the duration of the ban.

What Sexton did here (and has been doing for the last 5 years and I can name a few others like Peter O'Mahony in the same breath) is much worse than what Rassie did, happens on the pitch and on live TV. His sanction should be much worse than what Rassie got.

It was a screenshot that I copied from another site. The tippexed/ missing "names" were actually "Voorspelers" (Forwards) & "Agterspelers" (Backs/ Backline).

It will never happen. World Rugby HQ is in Ireland dominated by Irish and European staff who stand up for each other and you expecting them to issue a ban to one of their favourites.

It's like expecting the ICC to ban Kholi or Dhoni won't happen. Not in our lifetime at least.

Despite the World Rugby website the game must be fair at all times it's not really that fair off the pitch...

Oh I agree, it won't happen or it will be a slap on the wrist type of thing.

You guys ready for the final tomorrow, we lighting the fire at 12:00, chances are I am going to have to rewatch it Sunday. Would have went to the game, but for some reason they allow people to buy 30 tickets per person which is BS. So when I came on two hours after the tickets opened there was nothing left.
 
Lol. Just stop oil invaded the pitch in the Gallagher premiership final.
