Also, having him booted also impacts on the Team, providing further deterrence. You can look forward to more deliberate contrived contact if the only consequence is a pissy fine.

Yeah its not netball, I want to see real aggression and tough players taking on tough players. It should mean a lot to play for your country. Its no good being a good player if the opposition can put you off your game. Bring it on.

It was nothing - just a touch of shoulders -
