Alesana Tuilagi has been banned for 5 weeks by World Rugby officials and the decision has the rugby world in uproar.
The Samoan bulldozer was judged of foul play by striking Japan’s Harumichi Tatekawa with his knee when carrying the ball into contact.
The ban has led to a considerable backlash from ex-players and fans suggesting that the decision was ludicrous.
What do you think LADS? Did he deserve a ban or are decisions like this questionable on the direction of rugby discipline?
