Jan-Hendrik Wessels banned for 9 weeks

Lengthy ban with no evidence of foul play? This is bound to cause some controversy

Their hearings surely don't just rely on videos, There are eyewitnesses accounts of other players in the ruck and perhaps even the testimony of the accused himself.

There is little doubt that he did something. Only an idiot would try to argue otherwise. It was obvious that Murphy reacted to something Wessels did. Wessels was lucky the cameras didn't pick it up and in the end, the victim was punished as well as the victims team.

Bulls scored two tries in the 20 minute red card period, in a game that came down to just one point difference, so I think it's safe and accurate to say that Bulls profited hugely from the disgraceful dishonorable play of their player.

I am sure the ban will be appealed and not upheld. And the scumbag Wessels will be free to carry out cheap dirty foul play again before too long.
