Chiefs captain Luke Jacobson miffed at no punishment for broken nose in Super Rugby Pacific clash

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Chiefs captain Luke Jacobson has called on consistency from Super Rugby Pacific match officials, admitting he was miffed there was no punishment for the broken nose he suffered against the Crusaders last month.

The All Blacks loose forward’s start to the season has been disjointed, quite literally, after an incident early in the round-two contest put him on the sideline for a fortnight and then duly had him feeling the pinch in his return against the Blues last weekend.

Do you think their pricing needs addressed to encourage more people to fly?
