Just because a panel thought that does not alter my view it was a cheap shot. Based on the their comment about it being an attempt to save a try why did they give him a ban I would have thought based on what they said I would have thought it would have been classed as sending off as sufficient punishment.
He was deemed to have attempted to strike for the ball/arm, but that attempt was judged reckless with a high probability of head contact. Two match ban seems fair to me.
It remains to be seen if other similar unintentional but reckless challenges are treated the same. (especially since Gareth Hock is due back )
