Nah, that guy flat out elbowed flower in the face. Can see it from 1:13 on.

hohaia tried to give flowers a forearm smash at about 1:15 in the video but it didn't work out. Other commentators on a different channel said "hohoia started it and flowers finished it... it's as simple as that" and when watching the replay, another said "he didn't miss him, did he... WOW!" :lol:

both players got banned though

1.11 - Flower hits Hohaia from behind first, Hohaia chases him and decks him, Flower gets up and plants Hohaia :tup:

Look closely, he swings his right arm at him, that's not a shove :lol:

no offense...but the big purple guy hits like a girl at 1:01....glancing blow at best...on a guy already down and not protecting himself at all :lol:

this. watching it more closely (I was having a hell of a time figuring who was doing what at first, I dont normally catch much rugby) hohaia looks like he turned with a bit of an elbow, trying to slow flowers down, and flowers just ran him the fug over - then hoaia sprinted down after him with that weakass forearm, and then flowers wrecked 'em from there.

don't get me wrong, I wouldn't want to hit by one of those giant meathooks :lol:

if a dude is down and looking up at you, usually a straight shot (fist down into face) can put him out....that looked like a sidewinder glancing shot to me :shrug:

it was pretty well straight on, look at the slow mo and you can see how his fist bounces off the face (look for how the fist acts on the rebound ;) )
