A four week suspension is what Bakkies received after his hearing as we all read on a previous thread. Is it fair ? Look at the footage and read further on the rule that was applicable…

Citing Commissioner Freek Burger cited Botha under Law 10.4 (h) for dangerously and recklessly entering a ruck without using his arms or grasping a player. Botha made contact with Stormers right wing Gio Aplon in the second minute of the match.

I for one clearly see his arm making contact with the player basicly simultaneously as the rest of his body or head. Also what about he Stormer player entering the ruck just a split second after Bakkies ? I don’t see much of a difference. Surely Bakkies entered from the side and wasΒ rightly penalised. A 4 week suspension, you decide…

I’ve added another clean by Bakkies to draw comparisons for those who would be interested.

    Exactly sharky…hulle pik op Bakkies πŸ˜‰

    @ 144 The Saint

    No question about it, it was dangerous, but I think 4 weeks is a bit harsh. Guys like Butch, Bakkies, JP Nel, Schalk, etc are always going to be cited when others not wearing a tag will get off no problem.

    blouste bakkies did use his arms , the ref clearly on the field told him and punished him for leaDING WITH THE HEAD , and it was with his head that he hit gio in the neck and side of head region

    not disputing what he did was wrong and dangerous , but like i said before there is no consistency

  • 155

    sharky, as hy van die kant af gekom het, sou hy Aplon in die ribbes of sy getref het, maar hy tref Aplon teen die skouer en sommige meen teen die kop, hoe kry hy dit dan reg ?

    Maar ek stem saam, dink die meeste bulle is ontsteld oor die dubbele standaarde tussen die spanne, lyk my die kleur van jou trui speel wel ‘n groot rol.

    Ou Saint het bv. nou nog nie my vraag geantwoord waarom Franks nie ook aangewys en geskors is vir sy spear tackle op Danie nie. Hy weet as hy daardie een antwoord, moet hy erken dat sekere spelers/spanne strenger behandel word as ander spelers/spanne.

    jy bedoel
    hulle boelie vi bakkies want hy try anner ouens boelie? πŸ˜€

  • 158

    and to be honest if you asked most teams or players all they would ask for is consistency

  • 159

    @ 146 Hello Asbak hoegannit?

  • 160

    OK guys, I have to be off, you guys settle this between yourselves, and I will come back later, to tell you all how wrong you are, maybe even write an article about being biased…

    lekke broetsie
    kyk net hoe stress die bulls en ek het nog nie eens aan hulle gekrap nie!! πŸ˜€

    anyway, hoe hang hulle da by jou?

  • 162

    actually blouste the 2nd clip bakkies should not have been cited

    in the game the past weekend he connected head on head and from the side

    in the bok game bakkies came from behind and hit with arms in front shoulder to shoulder

    Saint @ 160

    Gaan jy nou ‘n outobiografie hier op Rugby-Talk skryf en post 😯

    Cheers boet.

    Want Franks was besig om homself te verdedig teen Pakslae…hehehe

    Dis eintlik ‘n goeie vraag, dalk het Jonker toe sleg gevoel daaroor, en dis hoekom hy al julle forward passes ensovoorts in die laaste paar minute misgekyk het.

    THANK YOU SHARKY!!!!!

  • 166

    @ 161 Klopdisselboom dankie

    Ek stress, Crusaders gaan tough wees. Ek dink Stormers het die makliker semi.

  • 167

    160: skryf asb in die artikel ook oor my vraag wat jy nie antwoord nie, dankie.

    157: nie eers Nhuck Chorris sien kans vir Bakkies nie …

  • 168

    if one takes a good look at both clips you can clearly see the diffs of the clearing out direction etc

    and as far as i am concerned bakkies for the past weekend at most should have gotten a 2 weeker

    the bok game he is also being judged on as per history , but he should never have been found guilty in the bok game

    and i think there is a lot of over reaction re bakkies this time

  • 169

    sharky…

    The charge against Bakkies was…

    “…cited Botha under Law 10.4 (h) for dangerously and recklessly entering a ruck without using his arms or grasping a player.”

    So how can he be banned if he used his arms ?

    That’s my whole point from the start !!!

    Clearly he used his arms – charge – case closed imo… πŸ‘Ώ

    @165 The Saint

    BTW jy het op ‘n vorige draad my baie beledig, ek wil net die saak regstel

  • 171

    NOT USING HIS ARMS !!!

    Come on 😯

  • 172

    164; dankie, goeie antwoord, ek berus daarby. πŸ˜‰

    161: ashley, sΓͺ asb vir jou mense (aplon) hulle moet ophou om soos slagoffers te ‘act’ … apartheid is lankal verby ! πŸ˜€

    Bakkies die Bul !

  • 173

    Jy kan nie ‘n ou aankla vir steel en dan skuldig bevind op verkragting nie !!!

    Dis ‘n grap man.

  • 174

    @ 172 LMFAO !!!!

  • 175

    bdb @ 172
    nee as hy soos Γ± slagoffer ge-act het, sou hy Γ± hartaanval, asma aanval en stroke gehad het. hy sou ook daarna in Γ± koma gegaan het. dis julle bul ondersteuners wat op die oomblik soos slagoffers reageer!!

    net jammer die “veiligheidspolisie” kan julle nie nou uitbail nie!! πŸ˜€

  • 176

    lol is julle manne nog steeda besig???? Ons weet mos bakkies is nie skuldig nie

  • 177

    blouste i feel he did use his arms , i repeat it was reckless and dangerous as to where he entered from , connecting the side oh gio’s head and neck

    i dont however agree that he did not use his arms

    one can also clearly hear kaplan telling bakkies on the field that he should not be leading with his head , and he was penalised for it

  • 178

    DB

    Ons het dit net gou bewys πŸ˜‰

  • 179

    DB het jy jou posting gelees of die vorige bakkies thread?? πŸ˜†

  • 180

    sharky
