Starting with this ironic tweet d’Andrew Durutalo, American rugby sevens player: “If you look up the word late in the dictionary, they’ll just get this replay.” The iconic Welsh referee, Nigel Owens, wanted to give his opinion: “I never get involved in conversations about the mentions or the duration of the bans. But it was an RC as obvious as you can see and well played Romain, no long TMO conversations. But this must now be followed by a very, very long ban ”.
I never get involved in Citing’s or length of ban conversations. But this was as obvious a RC you will see and well done Romain, no TMO lengthy conversations. But it has to now be followed by a very very lengthy ban. https://t.co/oh2r1DGu2A

Same observation for Olivier Magne who also reacted on Twitter: “That’s enough! it is time to sanction at the height of the violence of such a gesture and the prejudice to our sport. No one should risk their life on a sports field ”.
Bordeaux manager, Christophe Urios was also astonished at the violence of the percussion between the two players, before estimating that the consequences could have been more serious if the zone of impact had been higher: “Fortunately he takes it there. (Higher) He can kill him… ”
Like us, Christophe Urios still cannot get over the attack on Maxime Lucu …#COUBB #IloveUBB pic.twitter.com/yBRjxIDNNV
