Sanctions
Carl Hayman of New Zealand became the first recipient of a yellow card. He was not the only one.
There were sanctionary cards on this day – for Dan Cheever of the USA and Revaz Gigauri of Georgia but it may have been a case of mistaken identity as the perpetrator of the spear tackle was Otar Eloshvili.
