Sharks enforcer Royce Hunt was given his marching orders for an alleged punch that “barely repositioned that red goatee” of Raiders forward Corey Horsburgh.
With 30 minutes left in the clash, Horsburgh held his opposing prop back after a scrum, pushing Hunt who landed on his back.
Horsburgh had been pestering Hunt for majority of the match and the Sharks prop lost his cool, striking the Raiders enforcer in back play.
