No arms.
All Blacks star Damian McKenzie returned to action this morning as the Chiefs ran in ten tries in a thumping 62-12 win over Moana Pasifika.
McKenzie was superb throughout, but was on the receiving end of a pretty nasty, and completely illegal hit, by Fine Inisi during the game that has bizarrely been promoted by Super Rugby on X.
“Not sure what’s more impressive… the tackle or the offload!” Super Rugby wrote.
Have a look for yourself below. Crazy to see the organisation promoting such blatant foul play in this day and age.
Safe to say the comments underneath the post are not good.
