Dane Coles slammed after his cheap shot goes unpunished

Dane Coles slammed after his cheap shot goes unpunished

The Sharks were without Curwin Bosch for personal reasons and saw Boeta Chamberlain and Makazole Mapimpi exit the game early due to failed head injury assessments.

Two tries apiece sent the teams into half-time level but Ben Lam crossed twice within 11 minutes of the restart to put the Hurricanes in control.

Dane Coles touched down from the back of a driving maul to extend their advantage but Mzamo Majola went over to deny the hosts a try-scoring bonus point.

However, it was Coles' actions soon after his try that cause controversy as the hooker dived on Sanele Nohama.

Coles hit the scrumhalf, who was filling in at flyhalf, on the ground with what looked like a stiff arm causing a scuffle between the two sides. 


The All Black hooker got away with just a penalty and Twitter did not react kindly as they slammed him for his cheap shot and labelled the hooker  a thug.
