Wales furious after Georgia forward escape red card for cheap shot

Wales flanker Justin Tipuric is a major doubt for the Autumn Nations match against England in Llanelli on 28 November.

The 31-year-old was the victim of a dangerous swinging arm from opposite number Beka Saginadze in Wales’ 18-0 win which earned the Georgia flanker a yellow card.

Wales head coach Wayne Pivac and supporters believes it could have been a red card.

One Englishman features In Nigel Owens’ Dream XV Of Players He’s Refereed

15. Israel Folau (Australia) – This pick didn’t age well.

I go for Folau – only just, I should stress – because of his ability to seemingly beat his man every time he gets the ball in his hand. He’s such an exciting player and like Leigh Halfpenny he is one of the best under the high ball.


14. Stuart Hogg (Scotland)

How can you fail to be impressed when watching Hogg play. He’s so exciting as he burst into that line and, of course, was named Six Nations player of the tournament.


13. Brian O’Driscoll (Ireland)

Not only is he one of the greatest centres in the history of rugby union but he’s a fantastic man off the field as well. O’Driscoll has been a wonderful ambassador for the sport and a real leader.


12. Ma’a Nonu (New Zealand)

He’s another brilliant player and after every game, win or lose, he would come up and give me a hug. Ma’a has always found time at after-match functions or at breakfast if we’ve been staying at the same hotel to come over and have a chat.


11. Shane Williams (Wales)

He was in the mould of Gerald Davies in how he left defenders gasping for air as he beat them with those dazzling sidesteps. Nobody would fancy defending against a back three of Shane, Hogg and Folau, I can tell you that.
