It did look bad and he could have walked but there were two incidents involving the bloke who scored for them. One was a particularly bad ‘accidental (yeah, right)’ stamp on Siopis near the touchline and an elbow to Goutas’s face by the same player later on near the opposite touch line. Both going unnoticed and unpunished by the officials. Both very sly actions.

Man’s a cheat

I think he was the one who threw himself on the floor holding his ribs claiming he was fouled on the edge of the penalty area.

Tw*t

Preston player kicks Collins. Collins then gets up to confront him. Evans pushes his head forward, Collins goes to do the same and Evans throws himself to the floor claiming he's the victim.

Hardly an outrage. More like handbags and deceit.

There was no contact but Collins did commit “an act of violent conduct “ according to the laws.

The ref was perfectly positioned to see exactly what happened.

I think the ref didn’t send him off because of the provocation which went before and the dying swan acting by the Preston player

Bulut will be having words about discipline and watching replays of Eben Etzbeths smiling in the oppositions face

Anyone else think this report portrays us in not a great light?

I didn't see the end of the match "brawl" but shirley it's a cut and dried case of sour grapes

They don't like it up 'em

Etzbeth is a rugby player isn't he?

Re: Talking Point from yesterdays Game

Collins barely touched him although he could have got a card for that , very stupid

Evans is all I hate in the game , faking serious contact to try and get another player sent off

If I was the ref I would have booked Collins and sent off evans the cheat

It captions one picture 'Joe Ralls getting heated at the end'.

The picture just above shows Ralls holding Meite back from confronting someone. It should be 'Joe Ralls staying cool at the end'!

That's exactly as I saw it and the ref who's had deserved stick in the past off us should be commended for not falling for it.

He is but look at his face when the handbags are flying and he usually has a big shit-eating grin on his face which must wind up the opposition and give an impression to the referee that it can’t be him that’s causing the problem

Re: Talking Point from yesterdays Game

Probably a red nowadays but what an embarrassing 10 seconds of modern football that was.

Both should be sent off for being absolute melts

Re: Talking Point from yesterdays Game

Former CCS hero Evans should have gone for being such a Drama Queen. If he had anything about him - which he doesn’t - he would be cringing watching that again.
