IT WAS THE most surprising citing revealed on European Rugby’s disciplinary rap-sheet yesterday, and Ryan Wilson certainly seems to have a case to answer.
The captions on the video above definitely lean heavily on the side of Northampton Saints — ‘clearly see’ is an overstatement due to the considerable obstruction that is Lee Dickson’s body. However, you can make out the Glasgow blindside moving his left hand off the set-piece and doing something to cause ‘nine black’ to shoot his hips back and reach for his crotch.
Wilson will face a judicial panel in London tomorrow and, if found guilty, could be banned for 12 weeks as a low end entry point, rising to the high end entry point of 24 weeks.
