Foley wants clarity on dangerous play

Munster head coach Anthony Foley has asked for clarity from referees over dangerous play after seeing Peter O’Mahony taken out off the ball by Clermont lock Jamie Cudmore.

Referee Wayne Barnes took no action against Cudmore over the 46th minute incident when the Munster captain was hit late by the second row, nor earlier in the game when O’Mahony was subjected to a flurry of punches by Fritz Lee.

“We would have seen that as dangerous play,” Foley said of the Cudmore incident before pointing his sense of inconsistency from officials in the wake of Donncha O’Callaghan’s two-week ban, enforced last Wednesday, for kicking an Ulster player the previous weekend.
