A clip of a women’s rugby game has been viewed over one million times after the referee explained in x-rated detail why he was brandishing a red card. England and York Valkyrie legend Sinead Peach was sent off in the closing stages as her team had thrown away the lead against St Helens at the Totally Wicked Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Defending Women’s Super League champions Valkyrie had raced into a 8-0 but they trailed 16-8 with only a minute remaining.
The male referee then gave a penalty against York which seemed to annoy Peach in particular. It wasn’t clear on TV what had happened but the referee was wearing a mic and explained his decision.
“I’m not having you saying ‘which one are you s******g?’. You’re off,” said the referee as he showed England international Peach a red card.
The Match Review Panel in the Super League will review the incident and determine what suspension Peach will face.
Video of the incident has unsurprisingly gone viral.
St Helen’s win takes them back to the top of the table. York stay in third, four points behind the league leaders.
