    Feb 12 2026
    There was huge controversy a few days ago when England prop Ellis Genge headbutted Welsh opponent Alex Mann but was sanctioned with just a penalty. This despite the lawbook clearly stating that such an offence must be penalised with a minimum of a yellow card.

    In this episode Peter reveals what the lawbook actually says and tries to work out why there appears to be one rule for the Springboks, but other rules for the rest.
