🚨 Rugby Drama Alert! 🚨 Ospreys winger Luke Morgan has been cleared of any wrongdoing after a controversial incident left Sharks centre Ethan Hooker with a dislocated shoulder last week. The tackle, which followed Hooker’s scoring try in the United Rugby Championship, sparked outrage among South African fans, leading to a social media storm against Morgan. However, the URC has decided he won’t be cited, saying the challenge didn’t meet the red or yellow card criteria. 🏉
Ospreys coach Mark Jones has defended Morgan amidst the backlash, saying the winger was simply doing his job: “Luke is a competitive guy, chasing back for his team, trying to prevent a key try. There’s no malice in his actions.” While Hooker faces a 3-4 month recovery, Jones has condemned the online abuse directed at Morgan and his family, calling it “a disgrace.” 😤
