In his side’s clash against Saracens, Ford was involved in a serious incident that outraged some fans on social media.

Earlier in the game – Aled Davies had been shown a yellow for an offence that was widely deemed as less serious than this collision with the Leicester 10.

Some viewers were incensed that George Ford was not even taken for a HIA following this Gallagher Premiership moment.

Here was the incident below that got fans so worked up during yesterday’s game.

The incident further goes on to highlight the inconsistencies in the tackle area in rugby of late.

Saracens went on to win this clash which will greatly help help their playoff push.
