Why do they like Troy Deeney? He doesn’t really fit the prop file as a friend of the station.
Yeah, he caught him with his arm just above the wrist, but that is irrelevant, as he struck an opponent which is a red card offence. Torreira had played the ball and was chasing it, when Deeney just came along side him and whacked him with his arm. Three match ban, but will be interested to see if he appeals it.
