What the hell were they thinking?
England U20s ended France’s hopes of a Six Nations Grand Slam last night, thanks to 22-6 victory. But the game was hugely overshadowed by a horrific double tackle in the second-half.
In an extraordinary incident, France received a double red card when replacement second row Pierre-Henri Azagoh and replacement prop Hassane Kolingar were sent off for a dangerous tip tackle on England’s Fraser Dingwall.

Both players look set to earn long-term bans on tops of the red cards received last night. Perhaps the most unsettling part of the video, is the clear look of fear and grimace on the face of Dingwall as he is lifted.
Careless, dangerous and downright reckless play that should not go unpunished.
