It’s a Penalty Try!!

… and there will be a Yellow Card too, I think!

No Card, because the culprit could not be identified!

If they could have said who collapsed the maul would he have got a yellow Gbs? Lucky France then if so.

Yes it’s quite disappointing, with so many Leinster players unavailable thought the Kings wouldn’t lose by so much this game.
