I agree with this, Garner was intentionally slowing Latrine Mitchell down, so he probably had every right to tussle out of the hold, no different to when a tackler puches a forearm of the attacker holding on to their jersey as the guys trying to get off the tackle. Not saying if it connected was the right thing to do, but if your as dumb as garner, and put your head there, probably gonna get hurt.What’s the expectation here?
Garner continues to hold his leg, while south’s are rolling up the field, Latrell is closest to the tackle and needs to be dummy half and he simply stands there waiting for Garner to release his leg? Or he politely asks “ hey Garns, can I have my leg back so we can put more points on you guys”
Garner was trying to slow the play down like any player in any team would do, Latrell kicked his leg out of being held, like any player would do. There was no contact with Garners head with the boot of Latrell, more his leg grazes it. To be fair that’s lucky for both concerned.
Give Latrell a week, let him freshen up a bit.
And seriously, garner should have been penalised for holding so long too.
But the elbow to nofa, my god that was blatent!! LATEtrel Mitchell 4 weeks minimum, it was probably just as worse than Hetherington on val holmes yesterday
