“Johnny Sexton admitted Misconduct. The Disciplinary Committee found his behaviour confrontational and aggressive towards and disrespectful of the match officials, it included his pointing his finger at them and shouting at them something to this effect: “it’s a disgrace you guys can't get the big decisions right” probably accompanied by expletives “most likely the f-word”. His conduct was obviously unsportsmanlike and brought the sport of rugby union into disrepute.”
The Springboks’ 37-man squad for November, broken down by union:
⛈️ Stormers: 11
🐂 Bulls: 7
🦈 Sharks: 6
🦁 Lions: 1
🇯🇵/🇫🇷 Overseas clubs: 12
Rassie Erasmus has included six uncapped players in the #Springboks squad for their Nations Championship tour next month - more here: tinyurl.com/yh99vhpv

Probably costs a fortune, WPOTY! They would have probably got Bongi for a good deal given what’s going on at the Sharks.
Paulo took his shot and failed horribly. Will take a lot for him to get selected again. That was the worst performance by a hooker I have ever seen. And Scarra is going grey! 😂
He just needs a reset. Being in a new, but familiar, environment will help. Good move for both clubs.
Eben is your Rolls Royce. You only bring him out on big occasions or when specially needed, while Rahl can have a go the rest of the time.
Sexton got a two-week ban for kicking Munster’s Lifeimi Mafi in the face in 2009, and a three-match ban for aggressively verbally abusing Jaco Peyper and his fellow officials in 2023, amongst plenty of other questionable behaviour. Brilliant player, but perhaps not the best man to defend Furlong in the press!
