    Burger cited

    Another citation after the game. Its a shame the ref didn't show a bit more control a little earlier. But its about time he was pinged for something.

    (Rugby News Service) Tuesday 11 September 2007
    PARIS, 11 September - Following the South Africa v Samoa Pool A match in Paris on Sunday, 9 September, a South African player has been cited by citing commissioner Douglas Hunter.

    The South Africa flanker Schalk Burger has been cited for a dangerous tackle on the Samoa scrum half Junior Polu.

    The player and his team management have been informed and a hearing will be scheduled as soon as reasonably practicable.

    Good. Lets hope they look at the other 30 odd infringements the dirty bastard did during the game.

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    Fair chance his whole match will be reviewed for evidence.

    Am happy to see the citation, but would rather he had been sent off during the game.

    I've noticed a lot of high and high-ish tackling going on so far in most of the games.

    Brian Lima should have been cited.

    I think the Chiropractor took matters into his own hands and "Yellow-carded" himself in the tackle
    I didn't think it was actually too bad, ugly and took himself out, but I have seen far worse results from swinging arms etc.
