Sin-binned Youngs sorry for ‘playing like an idiot’

POOR Ben Youngs.

First he got sent to the sinbin for an act of petulance, then Danny Care returned to the field in his stead and, to top it all off, he was sent out to explain himself to the press corps afterwards.

A case of Mr Johnson making a point or two, perhaps, but the scrum-half handled it well, admitting he “played like an idiot” while qualifying the day’s events by pointing out that there were worse things happening in the world.
