Possible foul play ignored because Austin Healey spotted it firstRFU will look into incident in Saracens’ 52-7 rout of Harlequins
The Rugby Football Union says there will be a review into the incident during Saturday’s Saracens v Harlequins game, which saw a possible case of foul play ignored by match officials on the bizarre grounds the TV pundit Austin Healey had spotted it first.
Healey had identified a knee-slide clearout on Owen Farrell by the Quins captain Stephen Lewies in the latter stages of Sarries’ 52-7 victory and suggested on air “it could be really interesting” to see exactly where Farrell had been struck.
