Scotland legend Peter Wright questions Gray and Ford bans
FORMER Scotland prop Peter Wright claims World Rugby need to show greater consistency in the way they hand out punishments after Ross Ford and Jonny Gray were controversially ruled out of the remainder of the World Cup.
The Dark Blues pair were each given three-week bans for an illegal two-man tip tackle on Samoa’s Jack Lam which dumped the flanker on his head.
They will now miss out on the Scots’ first quarter-final clash in eight years on Sunday when they face Australia at Twickenham and will play no further part even if Vern Cotter’s team progresses.
