Basically accused of cheating.

 

12 month ban for the player involved as well.

It would be great if the footy chiefs did that as well.

bit harsh 12 months as i guess the player was told to do that?

Yes, the club deserve to be punished but I'm not sure what the player could do especially on the spur of the moment though the fact he apparently "winked" as he left the field was not especially bright if true!

I remember seeing the ball being knocked out of the scrum-half's hands as he presented the ball towards the scrum in the dying minutes of European cup final making it look like he fluffed the throw and the opposition won possession. The attitude of the commentators was "That's a bit cheeky".
