If you ever get frustrated at the disruption water carriers often cause when running onto the pitch then read the RFU's Judgment Report...

Not a great read that report from a Tigers perspective.

Perhaps Tigers could give him a dummy so he has something to spit out before hurling abuse. It may give him time to think about his actions.

The oldest trick in the book - admit to the lesser offence to make your denial of the more serious one seem more believable.

The trouble was his own evidence didn't stack up.

I remember seeing an apparent mix-up with the substitutions. Hopefully some lessons learned there. Thankfully it wasn't critical to the match.

Sound like Luke and the club played their hand poorly.

Whilst I don't in any way condone his actions.

Surely it is the responsibility of the officials to ensure that the substitutions have been fully completed before restarting the game.

If i had been the referee knowing that i had just yellow carded a player i would have done a head count after the substitutions and would have said to the Tigers captain and coaches you have too many players on the field before allowing the restart.
