SARU President Oregan Hoskins on Monday praised the South Western Districts Rugby Football Union for their strong action in suspending a club found guilty of violent behaviour for 15 years.
The Heidelberg Club was suspended after an incident earlier this month during which the club’s supporters invaded the field to attack the players of the Mossel Bay Rugby Club.
“I applaud the union for their strong action and the clear message they have sent to clubs – not just under their jurisdiction, but across the country,†Hoskins said.
“The implications for the Heidelberg Club are obviously very serious indeed and I have sympathy for those hard-working officials and members who had no part in this incident.
“But a club has to take responsibility for the actions of its members and players .â€

Disgusting – if there is any justice then that Heidelberg No 7 will see some jail time – either for assault (beating people up with a pole amongst other things) or for inciting a riot. As for the rest of those cowards…
