Joe Marler and Marcos Ayerza got into a little scuffle that started as nothing then soon turned into sending offs for both.
“I’ve seen two players grappling with each other, and I’ve seen this player (Ayerza) lead with his head into another player’s head. He gets sent off for that,” Barnes explained to captain Craig Newby, before turning to Marler and Nick Easter.
“This player’s involved and he threw numerous punches, including an uppercut, he gets sent off as well.”
The pair later faced an RFU disciplinary hearing resulting in them both being handed two-week suspensions.

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
