VIDEO: The most comprehensive, head-endangering rugby league clothesline of 2015

Mind yer head

Patrick McCarry

‘Beast produced a bell-ringer.’

That is how the official NRL commentator called this face-endangering clothesline tackle from New Zealand Warriors’ Manu Vatuvei.

The Warriors enforcer, known as The Beast’, unleashed this hellacious hit on Gold Coast’s James Roberts at the weekend [it comes 1:05 into the clip below].

Play continued and no sanctions followed, post-match. It means Vatuvei is free to play for New Zealand, against Australia, in an international encounter, this Friday.
