A four week suspension is what Bakkies received after his hearing as we all read on a previous thread. Is it fair ? Look at the footage and read further on the rule that was applicable…

Citing Commissioner Freek Burger cited Botha under Law 10.4 (h) for dangerously and recklessly entering a ruck without using his arms or grasping a player. Botha made contact with Stormers right wing Gio Aplon in the second minute of the match.

I for one clearly see his arm making contact with the player basicly simultaneously as the rest of his body or head. Also what about he Stormer player entering the ruck just a split second after Bakkies ? I don’t see much of a difference. Surely Bakkies entered from the side and was rightly penalised. A 4 week suspension, you decide…

I’ve added another clean by Bakkies to draw comparisons for those who would be interested.

    The question is not “was Bakkies’ suspension fair”; the question should be “was the suspension applied correctly” and the answer is yes. In this instance Bakkies is a repeat offender and he was suspended previously for 2 weeks (the minimum), no ways will any new offence be less penalisable. The judge must go for equal or more and if the offender is a repeat offender the judge will go for the harsher penalty. This is a no brainer. Future rucking of this kind will cause harsher suspensions for Bakkies.

    Shadow took the player past the horisontal and then continue to delibarately trying to bury him, thus he is guilty.

    Franks didn’t take Danie through the horisontal and he didn’t try to bury him, therefore not guilty, but very borderline. I think Franks was lucky.

    But to say that all officials and refs are against the Bulls, really silly.
