💥 Controversy sparked during the Wales vs. Scotland match with a high tackle by Joe Hawkins on Gregor Brown. Critics, including BBC’s Alun Wyn Jones and Sam Warburton, feel Hawkins dodged a red card. But what’s stirring more chatter is why Brown stayed on the field, despite appearing groggy. Progressive Rugby and viewers are questioning why the HIA protocols weren’t enforced more strictly.
